Serendipity B&B

Struttura moderna e curata nei minimi dettagli

La mia stanza dava nella sala colazione dove appunto fino a tarda ora (1/2) stavano dei ragazzi a far aperitivo a voce alta per cui non ho potuto riposare. Bisognerebbe tenerla chiusa di sera perché la gente non capisce che ci sono le stanze di altri clienti che devono riposare.

Tutto perfetto e molto curato la proprietà gentile mi sono sentito come fosse la mia casa

The facility was new and clean with a comfortable bed and good sized shower.

This B&B is basically you are on your own. Mimi, the very friendly host, makes arrangements via WhatsApp, greets you, gives you codes for the facility and parking lot and then returns a few days later for your 10:00AM checkout. There are about 35 steps from the parking to the room we had on the second floor. I want to put this review in the context of our one month tour through Sicily. In general we found the B&B's wanting. Most were located in out of the way places and did not provide the level of service that you get with a hotel. In the future we will look to book hotels exclusively. Consider this when evaluating our review of Serendipity B&B.

The hostess was exceptional. Very kind and accommodating. Unfortunately, she wasn't around when we checked in and whoever was handling the phone calls, wasn't as pleasant. Parking issues. We were allowed to park in the gate after we called very confused about how to get into or where to go to park. Make sure you have booked or requested in her 3 parking stalls because there is limited street parking nearby (unless you're comfortable parking off road, they do have cameras outside to watch vehicles parked nearby). The hostess was by far the best part of the stay, one of our rooms was very nice and clean (the other was clean but had a horrendous smell).

Breakfast was fine but nothing exceptional. There were pastries and the coffee was great. Very friendly hostess at breakfast. Nothing special for breakfast, just packaged pancakes and other pre-bought pastries. Location was not great, still had to drive about twenty minutes when leaving Messina and it was not in the best area (nothing walkable to do). One of our rooms had the strongest sewage smell imaginable and I got no sleep. I messaged about the smell but it's apparent they know it's a problem because they've put air fresheners all around it (which do nothing to help it). To sum up, one room was excellent and one was horrendously smelly. The location wasn't great for what we wanted to do and I couldn't stand the smell in my room, so I wouldn't stay again.

This is a really nice place to stay. A modern house in an area without significant traffic, so no noise. The room was fine and there was access to tea and coffee facilities in a central lounge area. Breakfast offered a nice variety and the hostess was very friendly, offering us a reference to a very good restaurant when asked. The facility is a short distance up a road that looks like a driveway coming off of a very large street leading to a big facility at its end, so it is easy to miss. Our GPS didn't quite go far enough for this address. It is a good idea to give them some notice of your arrival time so they are available to open the gate to the parking which is off-street and secure.
