Fabio’s apt n.1 is an impressive place with many perks, both functional and visual: a location at walking distance from most tourist attractions; bathroom accessories which are both stylish and functional; large windows that flood the room with Sicilian light; a well-equipped cooking area; a good-quality, firm mattress in the bedroom. The comfort of the space is matched by the refinement of the interior design. (The first hint comes from the apartment’s white door, where the number “1,” white on white, reminded me of the Beatles’ White Album. I gather the allusion is not accidental.) In the main room, as you may notice from the picture, the sober minimalism of the walls and furniture highlights the bright colors of the classical Italian tiles that cover the floor: the result, visually striking, makes the time spent in that space a real treat.
I’m sure my wife and I will go back to Fabio’s n. 1 more than once in the coming years.
