This is to confirm that all the previous reviews are true. Marco's parents were such delightful hosts, allowing us a glimpse of the "Italian way of life", introducing us to the local delicacies, showing us where to find the freshest produce. Sylvia showed me how to make ricotta pasta. Even though they live downstairs, the 3 bedroom apartment on the 1st floor was very private. The only negative for us was the road noise at night. The motorway runs 50 mtrs behind the house between their garden and a huge rock. So if you are sensitive to noise, bring your earplugs! The good news is that you DO get used to it so it did not bother us as much anymore after a couple of days. The place is really a great base from which to explore all the prettiest sites on that side of Sicily: Cefalu, Erice, Segasta etc.. I would recommend this place to friends.
