    Elio, our host, was efficient, friendly, kind, and generous. The apartment had everything we needed - and more! - and we immediately felt comfortable. Acireale was a lovely surprise, and we enjoyed the nearby cafes. It was excellent in all...

    Elio was really friendly and showed us round the flat after helping us park. Many small attentions in the flat ( water , fruit juice, coffee..). We just left the keys on the table when leaving because it was an early flight.
