Although we never got to meet Andrea we felt very welcomed in his home. He gave us lots of local tips/recommendations. The value for his home was perfect because he provided everything and it's right in the center of literally everything! The apartment is on the top floor so we had the rooftop views. My only complaint was there wasn't hot water for the shower. This was mainly our bad for not asking sooner to get it fixed. He provided a bottle of water, coffee and tea. All kitchen appliances available to make food...included oil and seasoning. We found lots of fantastic restaurants in the surrounding area, but not cheap. Andrea recommended 'Tiramisu', so we tried it and the food was great...but we felt very un-welcomed there. Iso bella was very easy to get to by cable car only 3€! We didn't get the chance to do Etna which I highly recommend. Maybe next time! Will return and would love to be hosted again. Thank you.
