About the host: Valentina was a very friendly host, she replied quickly to our text messages and was easily reachable. She welcomed us in person when checking-in and gave us good recommendations, including a tour of mount Etna, which was a highlight of our stay in Sicily.
About the place: The apartment is centrally-located and just a short stroll to restaurants, shops, cafes and bakeries. The room is comfortable and corresponds to the photos posted on the website. What is not clearly stated in the description of the place is that Valentina has two dogs, which are living in the apartment. My friend and I both like pets, but during our stay the dogs caused a bit of disturbance as they “relieved” themselves on two occasions in the apartment. We would recommend this place provided Valentina makes sure to hers dogs do their business outdoors.
