Just arrived home from a nine night stay in The wine house. Sicily is such a beautiful holiday destination and the house is in a great location in terms of being close to the beach, shops and restaurants.
However our stay wasn’t the perfect experience we were hoping for.
Firstly the house is attached to a stove making factory and for the first three nights the loud work production noises continued through the night, making it impossible to sleep in the second bedroom. The rest of the time the work started in the early hours meaning sleeping past 6am wasn’t an option.
Secondly, having quickly concluded the second bedroom wasn’t an option to sleep in due to the noise from the factory and lack of air con we used the sofa bed downstairs. This did not make for a pleasant experience, the sofa itself doesn’t have a pleasant aroma not helped by the filthy throw and cushions. But to make matters worse when the bed was folded away the following day several cockroaches appeared from under the mattress.
Sergio was very attentive when contacted about our issues and provided us with new bed throws for both beds, a replacement air conditioning remote due to one of them not working, and a refund of our cleaning bill. But sadly our stay wasn’t the relaxing, sleep filled trip we had planned.
I think if just the main bedroom was to be used on a trip the house would be acceptable, but with more than one bedroom required the place is not up to standard
