The host met us at the apartment at the time most convenient for us and was really kind even helping us with carrying our luggage upstairs. The location is superb, close to the beach, the castle, the old harbour, in the most beautiful area of the town and just above three excellent (but never noisy) restaurants. The only problem we had was finding parking, especially during week.ends. Maybe it would be better to go back home before 8pm as after that many people come to Castellammare for restaurants etc.
