Carmelo place is newly renovated. It has everything you need in the kitchen bedrooms and washing machine and clothes pins. The ceiling is a bit low and maybe too low for ppl that is 6’6’. Otherwise we use the place as the base to visit Taormina and it is wonderful, close to the metro but u can also walk 25 minutes to the bus station to go to Taormina. It is hot in July and the air conditioner work great in the apartment.
