- Tevfik (7/5): Good -
- Fred (10/5): Exceptional - First of all, the location is excellent! We thought the staff was very responsive and worked hard to make our stay enjoyable. Just a personal preference but the hot tub could be a degree (F) or 2 hotter.
- Vladimir (10/5): Exceptional -
- Adriana (10/5): Exceptional -
- Frascati (9/5): We made a few mistakes on our departure. Property manager was so understanding and helpful. - Staff was so helpful. Very clean Comfortable. All around a great value. Bedding could be a little bit better.
- Andrea (10/5): I would recommend this place to anyone and also would love to stay again. - The location was perfect and the space was excellent.
- Arnon (10/5): Exceptional - The hosts were very kind and helpful.
The room was big and the location is great.
Grate place and great value for money
- Louise (9/5): The best location , quiet and central and everything we needed - Location was the best, in the main area. Great resteraunts out the door
- Maree (10/5): Taormina is an amazing and well worth a visit. The apartment was excellent and centrally located - just off the Main St - The location was perfect. Lovely grassed garden and sitting area. Bedroom very spacious. Two bathroom - one upstairs and one downstairs. Large refrigerator and well equipped kitchen. Very narrow staircase to the bedroom upstairs. We had to leave luggage downstairs.
- Catherine (9/5): Superb - Location. No kettle.
- Harpreet (9/5): Very good! - The location of the property is quite central and close to the Parking Garage incase one arrives with a car. There is no pssibilty to find parking on the street as the town is small and the street parking is mostly for the resident's of the town.
Overall the stay was nice. The property is on the back street and is relatively quite than the main one. The garden is quite nice to enjoy the sun. The living area is spacious and nice. We visited in March so was not so hot to be there. The bedroom had heating radiators so was quite cozy when it got cold during the nighttime. The Hottub is a nice feature for sure but we didnt use it in the end.
The hosts were very kind and the response time was quick with them, all the conversation was mainly through whatsapp. They gave us quite good tips on what to see or eat during our stay. We had no issues with checkin or checkout. All the instructions were very easy and simple to follow, Not much to say. We found it all fine.
But few points as general idea:
The kitchen was a bit tiny, different than what it appeared in the pictures. But was alright for us as a couple to use it. Could be nice to have more basic cooking supplies like oil or some spices.
The walls are a bit thin so at times we could hear the neighbours in the apartment next to us, if one is a light sleeper might be disturbing.
The Hot Tub had additional charges to heat it.
- Craig (3/5): Very hard to say anything positive about this place except the location was decent. - The location was good. So many issues with this property. I think the host tried to solve them, but honestly, was small, didn't have any coffee maker, hair drayer was broken, bed was broken and it just didn't meat expetations.
- George (8/5): Very good - Cleanliness, nice garden and patio, ability to leave luggage before check in. No place to put luggage. Had to put luggage in small kitchen which precluded your ability to use kitchen.
- Rachel (9/5): Superb - Loved the apartment, exceptionally clean and the jacuzzi was a godsend at the end of every day. Absolutely nothing
- Stephanie (10/5): review - Location was amazing, apartment was lovely nothing can think of
- Polinchenn (9/5): Superb - thr location and the flat are top. really pleasant. the iron had something stiky which transfered onto mmy dress...may be check on those small things sometimes. it is not isolated ,so you really hear everything from the other flats.
- Angelina (9/5): we had a wonderful time - location
facility the noise from other apartment in the same building. the isolation is bad
- Robin (8/5): Lovely accommodations and responsive host. - Great central location. Comfortable accommodations. Wonderful yard! Sweet neighbor cat that likes hanging around the property. Very minor - some basic items missing in kitchen like a bottle opener and corkscrew.
- Stephanie (10/5): Exceptional -
- Hannah (9/5): Superb -
- Richard (6/5): Pleasant - The location was excellent, right in the town and close to the main Street. There were to many other tourists and it was a fair walk form the Bus station.
- Ariadna (8/5): Good place - The apartment is beautiful and location is amazing The wifi connection is bad and you can hear your neighbors
- Tom (8/5): Very good - A bit noisy. You can hear the neighbors well.
- Andrei (10/5): Exceptional -
- Urs (9/5): simply perfect -
- Emily (10/5): Exceptional - we had a great stay! The staff were very friendly, the room was very comfortable, and the place is new and beautiful. I highly recommend it
- Sarah (8/5): Very good -
- Lina_toneva (10/5): Exceptional - We loved everything - location, interior... everything was wonderful
- Aleksandra (8/5): Very good - Clean, central location, easy and smooth check-in, helpful owner. Appreciated proper heating as in March can still get cold. Wifi in the upper floor was not working very well. However connection on the ground floor was working well. The apartment is separated by a locked door with another apartment. This means you can hear very well the other guests. Similar, one can hear the nosie of the neighbors. However, during our stay nobody was loud after sleeping time.
- Elena (10/5): Exceptional - Loved everyone about the property. Lovely rooms, well equipped kitchen, great whirlpool, amazing service.
- Samira (9/5): Superb - The Location we’re it is and the staff is so helpful 👍
- Julia (8/5): Would absolutely recommend Livios little hide-away! - Arriving was easy, just a short walk from the public parking garage. The location is perfect, right in the old town, next to all the shops, restaurants and cute little streets and stairs.
There is a tiny garden, and we were able to have morning coffee in the sun on the stairs.
- Bianca (10/5): Exceptional - The host, Livio, was very helpful and friendly - he gave us advice regarding places to see, where to eat and drink and about Etna trips. The apartment is very nice with all facilities that you need! Great location!
- Gabrielle (8/5): Very good - Location is perfect, communication with the host is great! The walls are rather thin, depends what you’re used to I guess, but my partner and I are sensitive to noise.
- Ilona (9/5): Lovely break in the centre of a lovely location! - The rooms where all clean, the property is in a very central location and availability of the host for any queries was fantastic and very quick! Availability of a cleaner every day made it feel like we were in a hotel! The Jacuzzi was nice and warm and clean and the little garden area was great for relaxing afternoons! The jacuzzi had a timer and bubbled for a few minutes only and had to be re-started over and over in one sitting in order for it to continue bubbling. I assume this is done so people do not to waste too much electrical power, but the timer could be made to last a little longer?
- Mark (8/5): Very good - This is a lovely place to stay and of a very good quality. We stayed in the bottom flat which came with a relaxing hot tub. The friendly host kept in touch and provided superior toiletries. Highly recommended, thank you! The Booking site did not make it clear in the photos which facilities you got, so we were surprised not to have a sofa. It doesn't matter for a short stay though. It would be useful to have some oven ware provided. But really a fab place to stay
