Very nice place in Giardini. Fantastic terrace with even better view for all Giardini bay (and Taormina). it's like 400 meters to nice sandy beach. Apartment good equipped. Close to Bus Stop - where you can catch bus to almost all places on east Sicily(20 minutes to Taormina) . Generally the photos are showing everything like it is. High fifth floor and some steps from the beach can be difficult - but you are aware of that in description of apartment. During the summer it can be hot in apartment as it is last floor and it getting hot inside quite fast.
The only minus for that place is very loud from the streets. It is located near the train lane (which is not so annoying ) but motorbikes. it is located on small altitude so the motors need to use more power and they are really noisy. they are really popular in Italy and all night you can hear them if you have some sensitivity on such voices. we get used for that after second night (of course you can buy also stoppers). I'm not complains about that but when i was searching places in Giardini such apartments was declined by me but most places are similarly located there so it would be really hard to find better place.
In general it was fantastic time, very nice apartment - strongly recommend :)
