My boyfriend and I had an absolutely amazing stay at Francesco's apartment. The space itself is beautifully put together, with lots of nice touches and a lovely big bathroom. But the real stand out is the view from the balcony - just incredible. We loved sitting out there with a glass of wine watching the sun going down over Etna, it's a really special view and I can't imagine anywhere else being able to top it. Francesco and his wife were fantastic hosts and were always on hand to answer any questions and provide some local restaurant tips etc. The apartment is a short walk into town, there are some steep steps but it's perfectly fine if you have good fitness. Also I would say its the better side of town to stay on in terms of being near the nicer bars/restaurants and shops. All in all we had such an amazing time and can't wait to come back and stay at Francesco's place again in the future - highly recommend!
