Luca's place is very close to everything you might need. It's a bit noisy since it's just between two streets and you will hear a lot of motorcycles going up and down them. Luca is a great host. He spoted us in a sea of cars and showed us to his place. Showed my husband to the parking lot and brought him back up to the appartment. He was very warm and welcoming. We ended up having a great time in the pretty city of Taormina.
