The listing was accurate. We could not haven more pleased with our host Simona who reviewed the accommodation with us but also picked us up and delivered us from and to our connecting transportation. One word of caution is to expect a lot of hills and stairs but the views from her patio are amazing.
Nous avons bien profité de Modica et ses environs en étant dans une endroit magique.
Joli petite maison, très discrète et extrêmement bien placé dans l’ancien Modica
La propriétaire est très disponible et accueillante, la maison dispose de tout ce qu’il faut pour passer un très bon séjour. Je conseil chaleureusement
