When you see this listing, book it. Don’t even blink an eye, just book it right away. I fell in love the moment I opened the front door (or was it when I saw the bedt open market right at our doorsteps?): the homy feel, the artsy outlook... the balcony that’s perfect for breakfasting outside (you can even see Miss Etna looking over the city) and for sunrise-watching. Make sure you wake up ahead so you don’t miss the sky changing colors in the most rainbow-y way possible. If you’re kne for more practical details here they are:
- you’re in the middle of city center, Duomo is a minute away, you see it from the balcony
- the bus stop to the airport is 5 min walk away (the drive is less than 10 mins). Ornella arranged a car for the 4 of us though, and we are very grateful
- all the amazing food you’d like to cook you’ll find in the market downstairs, that includes bakeries, cheese, fish and meat
Ornella was great. Exactly what I look for in a host - giving us all the space we wanted but there for us when we needed help. Self check in was easy due to great communication with Ornella. We had had some changes done to our trip plans and Ornella accomodated all of them with not a word about it. Above all that, she greeted us with a bottle of wine (thank you!) which made us feel so welcome.
