Federica was not in town the day we checked in but we were greeted by Armando, her father. He was very helpful and welcoming in terms of giving us directions and tips on how to get around. The apartment is absolutely stunning and worth the price! It is beautiful and comfortable and close to the city center. We were near bars, stores, the Greek theater, and the main strip in Taormina. The only downside was that since we were so close to the city center, there was a lot of noise and action late at night which sometimes affected our sleep. Also, the wifi connection was not too great and we only got it to work in certain areas of the house. Check in and out was easy and we were even allowed to check in earlier than expected which was nice. Overall this was a great place and we hope to stay there again!
