All I can say is that the view from the balcony is breath taking. The pictures don't do it justice. Sabrina and Letizia were wonderful hosts. Letizia met us at the bus stop which was unexpected but so appreciated. They were very good to us. The location couldn't be better - less than a minute to the main bus station that you can use to visit other cities, 2 min walk to the cable cars to go down to Isola Bella and a 5min walk to the plaza which we strolled every evening. It was such a memorable break. FYI, it's super easy to catch a bus from Catania airport to Taormina -- catch the Etna interbus. Grazie mille Sabrina and Letizia
