Overall stay ok. Apartment clean and well equipped located both close to the station and the center (about 15 min walk). Ideal point to explore Messina. Close to stores and eating establishments.
The only downside is the view from the window (or rather the lack of it) and the lack of daylight in the apartment, because it is located on the first floor and the windows overlook the courtyard (the so-called well) and all day you have to use artificial light.
For that, the contact with Simona on a big plus - smiling and helpful.
