Like staying in a house in 1915
Warm greeting from couple who own the house and live upstairs. The house as noted by others is old, furnished with old pieces and has the weirdest set up with two bathrooms that are adjoining. Inside is dark so lights have to be on all the time. Good location, close to the town square that was really lively at night. BUT the listing says there is parking and it is STREET parking with rules about when you have to pay for parking and when not and we managed to get a parking fine! We were booked in for 2 nights and intended spending the days on Etna Nord, about an hours drive with plenty of hair pin bends etc so we left after one night and stayed in a delightful hotel close to the wineries etc that we wanted to visit.

Aci Castello il ponte del 25 aprile
La struttura è una casa d’epoca, posta al piano terra di una casa privata con accesso da un cancello in ferro posto sulla strada principale. Essa è dotata di due cortili ben attrezzati, uno all’ingresso e l’altro sul retro. All’interno le camere sono tutte comunicanti, così come i due bagni: questa peculiarità (specificata immediatamente dal proprietario) può rappresentare un handicap se si è in due famiglie. La struttura, per esposizione e spazi all’aperto è certamente più godibile nel periodo estivo. Nel complesso ci siamo trovati bene ed il proprietario è stato estremamente cortese e disponibile. Nota negativa: i letti sono scomodi, specialmente il divano letto.
