We booked four nights at Gugli's house but sadly we had to leave after two nights. He assured us we would have a reliable internet connection, as one of us had remote work meetings to take. But internet stopped working a few hours after we arrived because there was no credit left. He topped up internet when he was made aware of this but the internet connection kept dropping, making working from his place a nightmare. The house layout is comfortable, however, it is in need of refurbishment in many corners: for example, the top floor air-conditioning did not work, the metal window shutters are rusty and difficult to open and close (and with wild Sicilian wind and sun, they are needed very much), the boiler needs to be turned on and off manually, otherwise the electricity stops working if you try to use another electrical appliance, the cupboard in the kitchen is an oldish, unstable Ikea piece of furniture that needs to be treated with a lot of care for fear of it coming undone every time you open it to get a plate or cup. And the lovely green lawn that you see in the picture was replaced by a barren piece of land that hadn't been watered or taken care of in a very long time. When we told Gugli that we couldn't stay there any longer mainly because of the internet connection, he was difficult to deal with. "I understand that you can't work from here but I cannot give you any money back as airBnB doesn't allow it". As we all know, airBnB allows for reservations to be modified, if all parties agree, especially if the services that were offered cannot be met. But the most unpleasant exchange was reserved for the end: 5 minuted before we left, a nice ceramic vase that was sitting on top of the unstable kitchen cupboard fell to the floor and broke after a gust of wind wrapped the curtain around it. We left the vase for Gugli to see what had happened but he did not accept any of our explanations by message and in person, and threatened to call the police on us. All in all, an experience that we would never like to repeat.
