Perfect place in a perfect neighborhood! This is the best airbnb place we've ever stayed in. Everything is brand new, the house is impeccably clean and the decoration feels like home. Franco and Enrico were perfect hoststo us; answered all our questions and were available all the time. The house is really in the heart of the city and close to Dome Square, Via Etnea or Teatro Massimo Bellini. It was warm even in February. There are two separate bedrooms which can house a couple and two children or two singles comfortably. There is a very comfortable sofa and a small balcony on the lower floor. There are pans, dishes and cutlery if you want to cook. Franco left us coffee, tea and adorably delicious oranges (I bet you can't find an equivalent), wine and famous almond cookies. Do not limit yourself with Taormina; use this place as a hub, rent a car and see Siracusa, Taormina, Mt Etna, Acitretza and Modica as we did. You can't have a problem parking because you can park in the the quarter in front of the house (not free on friday and saturday nights though). If you can't rent a car, this place is very close to intracity and intercity bus stations, which will enable you to see around. There are both cheap and cosy and posh restaurants around the house. Do eat the cavallo sandwiches (horse meat) in the butcher's on the next street (another great guy!). See a performance in Teatro Massimo Bellini. Visit the fish market, buy fresh fish and try the grilled artichokes. Words just cannot describe our experience in Catania, hence in Franco and Enrico's house. I extend my heartfelt thanks to them. I would definitely stay here again if came back!
