The house is bigger and more beautiful than it seems from the pictures. The check in and check out were very easy. For the 2 weeks we were there Francesca was always available and helped us with many things (bringing extra sheets, towels and keys).
A couple of things to note: the sink of the bathroom upstairs gets clogged. Francesca tried to find a plumber but the plumber never showed up. The biggest problem in the house is the AC downstairs. It is so noisy that we had to turn it off to sleep. This was a real problem since it was very hot during our stay. The answer we got was that the AC was working and that it was old and needed to be changed. Finally, we think the house could be cleaner. To be fair, there is a lot of dust so things get dusty very quickly. But the freezer was dirty, the dishes had probably been washed by the previous guest, etc.
Location is very good if you want to be able to walk to the panificio, aperitivo but specially if you want to party at night. I have to say that the party scene is a bit on the young side (early 20s) but Marzamemi has beautiful bars in the open air, so anyone can have fun. Keep in mind that the house can be a bit noisy for guests downstairs at night during the weekends because it is very close to downtown. The house is 100 meters from the beach and 15 - 20 minutes from really beautiful beaches. I think it is a good option for a group of friends that need flexibility (some will go to the beach nearby in the morning, some party at night etc).
