The positives; The location is absolutely perfect. This is worth every dollar itself. The air conditioners were very efficient in the bedrooms. Tall ceilings with floor to ceiling windows. Big spacious unit. The washing machine and drying rack were life savors. Negatives: this is a walkup. Be prepared ahead of time if handicapped as there is no elevator. The home needs some updating. The toilet bowl seats are loose as is every soap fixture or handle bar (towel/toilet paper ring) in the bathrooms. Regardless of negative aspects these can all be fixed easily. The stay was pleasant and Taormina is magical!!
