While the place is charming and extremely well situated right next to the fish market, there are some drawbacks. The shower curtain was so disgustingly dirty I was reluctant to use the shower at all (fear of the plague living inside the shower curtain!). The place itself is charming, in an old world run-down Sicilian hipster sort of way. It is well decorated. The hot water ran out and the host was good about replacing the cylinder when we wrote to her. I think if this host puts just 10% more effort into maintaining the place, it'd be a decent place to stay. Notes: If you're looking for a quiet place - this is not it. Bunch of cool bars in the hood so it gets loud. Also, the rounding staircase was a doozy, and probably dangerous for young children. Privacy is also a challenge with the rooms leading to one another, so if someone stirs at night (say, to use the bathroom), everyone else does too.
