My girlfiend and I had a lovely stay at Vincenzo's place. It is a recently refurbished apartment within a nice building that contains a few rental apartments. Vincenzo was there to meet us promptly and show us everything in the unit. He had provided a bottle of wine as well as some snacks and a coffees/teas which was all much appreciated. The apartment itself was bright and very modern, having been recently re-modeled it seems. Our unit (no. 3) had a small balcony overlooking the street with two chairs and a table. While this position provided great views over the ocean from the unit, it also meant some noise from vehicles during the night (the windows and doors were all modern and thus mitigated the noise very well, however still we could hear some exceptionally loud vehicles at night). All the appliances and 2 air conditioning units were very modern and good. Location was excellent, right next to Porta Messina, so great access to the shops/bars/restaurants within the pedestrian zone).
All in all a great stay and we would highly recommend the apartment.
