We enjoyed very much the balcony in the apartment/studio . We sat there and had breakfast or a drink In the evening. The studio is pretty small more like a hotel room ,but clean and Carola has been able to fit everything in that one needs which is amazing .The washing machine was very useful. The queen bed and pillows are soft . There are some steep stairs up to the apartment and that is good to know. From the apartment it’s about 12 minutes walk to the fish market and Plaza di Duomo . Since it’s in the city it’s also a bit noisy at night .There are some restaurants about one minute walk away ,but we did not try them. About 10 minutes walk to a real supermarket( Penny). Also 10 minutes walk to the shopping street Via Etneo ,Villa Bellini and the Greek Ancient Theater ruins .Carola is very friendly but when we checked in we had a bit of a language barrier,so it was easier to communicate online. Unfortunately the wifi was unreliable when we were there
