This is a great place to stay in Taormina. The location is fantastic (super close to the main drag, but far enough away that it's quiet) and the apartment is clean, bright, and comfortable (with a real double bed!). There is a small balcony from which you can enjoy panoramic views of Taromina. The only (slight) criticism is that the bathroom is definitely cramped, even for Italy. Claudio himself was a wonderful host. He was very communicative and attentive to arrival time so he could be available to us. He accompanied us to the car park and then drove us back up to the apartment, where there was a chilled bottle of prosecco waiting. He offered recommendations on places to eat (one of which we went to and was fantastic), and was willing to be available if any questions came up.
