We really enjoyed our stay at Giuliana's place....the apartment was fabulous: large and very comfortable and extremely well set up. There were lots of extra touches which we really appreciated, such as the lovely biscotti! The terrace is wonderful, and after a couple of weeks of travel we were able to enjoy a home cooked meal while watching the sun setting over Mt Etna. Giuliana was great and met us at the apartment to help settle us in. The apartment is very central to all the shops & restaurants, but still private and quiet.
