Very centrally located to all major attractions in Messina. Federica was very friendly and helpful, allowing me to keep my luggage early, providing useful local information and reacting quickly to requests. The apartment is in a quiet side street (street was closed for traffic while I was there but its unlikely to be busy even when open for traffic) a stones throw from the central Cathedral square, restaurants and grocery shops. Some care is needed (especially after a few glasses of Sicilian wine) to get up and down the spiral stairs leading to the spacious bedroom and bathroom. Lots of windows to let in fresh air.
