Giuseppe’s apartment is even more stunning in person than it is in the pictures. The restoration work was an excellent blend of modernization while giving great honor to the historical aspect of the space. It was a great homebase to come back to every day!
The location is excellent. Plenty of restaurants to choose from and being two short blocks from Via Etnea offered ample options for shopping. In addition to restaurants at the doorstep, there are also stores for groceries, toiletries and other essentials that you may need. The area has a very vibrant nightlife but if you close the doors, you will not be disturbed by the festivities close by.
If you want a warm shower, plan to make it quick. Also, for American guests not accustomed to old historic buildings, toilet paper should not be flushed!
Piazza Duomo and the main bus terminal are about a 10 minute walk. The beautiful Bellini Park is about 5 minutes away.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Giuseppe‘s apartment. We highly recommend this apartment. Giuseppe is a most gracious host!
