Nice area

Lovely coffee shop just outside the door, great location and very safe area. Amenities within the apartment were fine. Two burners on the stove were non functioning but that only matters if you like to cook while you’re on vacation 😊

We had a lovely stay at this property. The lication is great. Lots if shops and restaurants and easily walkable ti city center area. The apartment was very clean. The size was much smaller than it appeared in pictures. We did okay with the 2 flight walk up. The stairs were easier to navigate. We loved sitting out on the balcony enjoying some local wine. Tormina is a very charming area.

Great location

Everything was as described. Great location, near everything, very clean, nice view. It was a bit noisy with all the motorcycles but with the balcony door closed it wasn’t bad. There is a lovely public garden just a few steps away that you shouldn’t miss. I was lucky to catch a free concert there one evening. Great restaurants very near. The host is very nice.

Response from VrboOwner on 7 Jun 2025
my dear Saverio your rudeness during the stay continues with this review full of inaccuracies. You were rude from the beginning and your guest tolerated it for a long time until he had to fight back, always politely. We have all the chats that prove it. Regarding the faults you reported: TV - the TV works very well and you should have written that we came 3 times to explain to you how to use the remote control. Bathroom light bulb - As soon as you reported it we came to replace it. Fridge - it actually broke during your stay and we were actually able to replace it after 2 days due to delivery times. Now it's new. I'm sorry I didn't write a review about you in advance so I could warn your future hosts about what a terrible person you are!
