| The apartment is located in a side street of the historical centre of Cefalu', making its position central and at the same time quiet. Room size, equipment and cleanliness are adequate, while the welcoming was disappointing due to the late arrival of the keys, the rushed overview of the apartment and the untold change of apartment (within the same building). A welcome pack (guides and essential kitchen items) would have been useful. A small fault was promptly addressed. Overall, we would definitely return. |

| Piccolo appartamento nel centro storico di cefalù. E' una zona pedonale, per raggiungere l'appartamento e l'agenzia per le chiavi bisogna andare a piedi. Il nostro appartamento aveva una scala senza corrimano sconsigliabile in presenza di un bambino piccolo. I motorini a cefalù fanno un rumore infernale e in caso di sonno leggero possono essere fastidiosi. In cinque minuti si arriva alla spiaggia. Cefalù è incantevole!!! |

| Difficult to reach by car. We booked Piazetta B and got Piazetta A. If you do not expect to much it is a reasonable place to stay for a few days. Piazetta A is not really bright, there is only seaview when you step on the tiny balcony and take a look to the left (btw two buildings). But regarding the price of 30 euro/night for two people it is really ok. |

| The location is perfect - a few yards from the sea and a couple of minutes' walk from the cathedral. Apartment C, where we stayed, has a lovely terrace with wonderful views of the sea, cathedral and La Rocca (the other apartments only have small balconies). The roof did leak when it rained, but that's unlikely to be a problem in the summer. We had a very enjoyable stay here. |

| We were absolutely thrilled with the apartment we stayed in, which was no 3C. Firstly we were met by Stefano, who couldn't have been more helpful and pleasnt, and also spoke very good english. When we were leaving he also arranged a taxi for us, since ringing a taxi when you don't speak Italian was going to be difficult. The apartment was every thing the website said and more. The location right near the beach and right beside the main shopping in town was fantastic. The view from the rooftop balcony was breathtaking and we enjoyed sitting on our balcony which over looked the street as weel. It was a little noisy, but OK during the night, except when the truck collected the bottles from the restuarants each morning about 7am. But we've had worse problems in other places than that. It is advisable to get a taxi from the train station when you arrive. It is possible to walk, but it is a fairly long way and not with big bags like we had, that's for sure. If we ever come back to Cefalu, which we loved, we would definately stay here again, and we can't believe what a great price it was. |

| The photos on the internetsite are misleading. Only Piazetta C has a small terrace, A and B have just a very small balcony, you can hardly sit on with 2 persons. The appartment is very dark and noisy. We booked appartment B but we were given A because B was occupied!!?? The actually apartment is not like it is as shown on the internetsite We booked it for 7 nights but left after 2 nights, it was a very depressing appartment. Cefalu and Sicily however are very enjoying. Apart from Piazetta we had a terrific stay on the Island. |

| L'appartement loué n'était pas celui annoncé sur le site web mais de qualité équivalente, en plein centre historique de Cefalu et pourtant au calme, refait à neuf très récemment. Les propriétaires se sont montrés très disponibles malgré une arrivée tardive. Prévoir un supplément obligatoire pour l'entretien de l'appartement (pourtant inexistant !). La location est relativement chère mais Cefalu est une destination prisée, il semble difficile de trouver mieux à des prix moindres. Une bonne destination pour silloner ou séjourner sans voiture, Cefalu est bien relié par train à Messine et Palerme (compter une heure). |

| The apartment was marvellous: I think the description could have been more emphatic about the simply wonderful view from the roof terrace. Also how brilliantly central the apartment is, with the Duomo only a few minutes away. Perhaps you could warn elderly people that the stairs are steep! We didn't have any knives (for eating with) but as we had friends in the apartment below, we borrowed some. The euqipment for cooking and eating was a bit minimal but we managed, with sharing. Cefalu is a lovely place and the aprar |

| This apartment is located right in old Cefalu and is within a few meters of excellent restaurants, little grocery stores, bakery, etc. The view from the rooftop terrace (only accessible from the top apartment) is magnificent. However, there is no parking available in the old city and you must walk a good km to find some along the sea road. Also, we were charged E30 for cleaning and E11 per person for "linen"--a few towels and sheets. The extras added up. Also, we were asked to pay cash. |

| spacious apt close to the sea. a bit tricky to find. as with all of the apts, it's best to call first to get location details. the utensils for cooking and coffee making need to be upgraded, but overall a pretty great bargain. |

| The apartment was not very clean and we had problems trying to find it. There is an additional cost for towels and bed sheets which is not mentioned on the website. Although you end up paying 30 or so Euros extra for the bed sheets and towels, they are not cleaned. As we went during a cold period, we had problems because there was no heating and not enough blankets. On the positive side, the location is right in the city centre and walking distance from the Dome. |
