The room was clean, very well stocked re coffee, tea, soak, shampoo etc. the staircase needed more lighting, as the property was located in a very old building. The view from the balcony was spectacular! It had a great view of the ocean and beach. The town itself was beautiful one of the nicest on the island. Would recommend.

The room looks over the Cefalu beach and the sounds of the ocean are heard. The room is a good size with small kitchenette. The stairs up are quite narrow and there’s limited light. Our only real issue was the mold in the shower.

Stairs are scary, bathroom needs maintenance and cleaning. Communication was excellent. Location is perfect-but if they would clean it, make a drain work better will be good. Also it appears that some neighbors are not friendly.

This apartment was very clean, spacious and well appointed. The shower was wonderful The balcony looked right over the busy beach and access to this beach was only a two minute walk. It’s location was right on the edge of the old town and also only a less than 15 minute walk from the train station. The area was swarming with restaurants and bars. Our host was very friendly and helpful, she even met us outside the entrance to assist our arrival

Beautiful view from Balcony, property needs upkeep

We were a little disappointed with this property . Checkin was rushed and very impersonal. Long narrow stairwell to get to apartment ( 2 flights straight up ) The condition of the apartment in our opinion not well maintained . Things inside the apartment like the doors to the balcony were not in good repair. Doors need to be adjusted throughout so they don't scrap the floors.Peeling paint on balcony doors and exterior walls of balcony. Dishes ( cups and glasses ) were absolutely filthy. No dish towel or clean sponge to be able to wash the dishes. Bed leg was extremely wobbly, cheap quality bed frame. Access to fridge is a bizarre set up, and the door to access the fridge also is difficult to open. Wall air conditioner did not blow cold air at all, it was not a big problem for us as it was not too hot while we were there, we used a floor fan. We spent 30 nights in Italy in 14 different properties, and this was the only disappointing property we stayed in. On the positive notes, Paid off site parking , was easy.. 350 meters away , an easy flat walk to the property ( no hills or stairs). The location and balcony view can't be beat. We stayed one night , so made do

Sjarmfull og moderne leilighet med nydelig balkong

Sjarmerende og relativt nyoppusset leilighet med havutsikt. Koselig balkong. Bra beliggenhet i gamlebyen. Behagelig seng. Ingen skapplass, men mulighet for oppheng på garderobestang. Kjøkken har ikke kokeplate og kjøleskapet er et minibarskap (svært lite). Ellers fungerer tekjøkkenet fint, med vannkoker og vask. Lite bad, men helt ok.
Fransk balkong mot bakgård.

Nach aussen hui, innen pfui

Die Lage der Wohnung ist toll, die Wohnung liegt direkt übern Meer mit einem Wahnsinns-Blick. Aber die Wohnung ist nicht für einen längeren Aufenthalt geeignet, da es keinen Kühlschrank in der Küche gibt, auch Schwamn und Spüli wären wünschenswert gewesen zum Abwaschen des Geschirrs. Küche war allgemein sehr klebrig und wie die ganze Wohnung nicht sehr sauber. Die Wohnung könnte ein kleines Update gut gebrauchen. Das warme Wasser reicht nur für eine ca 3 minütige Dusche. Das Bett war bequem und sauber, das Schlafzimmer geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Die Kommunikation lief nicht gut, wir mussten die Inhaberin kontaktieren, um zu erfahren, wie wir in die Wohnung kommen können.

Excellent communication with the host. Very helpful. Location location location!! Only recommendations would be minor like the addition of a small microwave, coffee maker and some cooking oil. We absolutely loved our stay in Cefalu. Incredible view of the beach from the balcony. Close to everything including beach, boardwalk, and restaurants and bars. Bed was comfy too.

Lovely

The place itself is brilliantly located in old Cefalu. Location could not be better and the view from the balcony is magical. The room itself if perfect for a couple wanting to explore Cefalu. Albeit its an apartment I suggest that you explore the city’s many restaurants since the kitchenette is very small. A few things to be noted that may be of importance to some. - it’s located by the sea and the sea is loud sometimes. - there can be some noise from the restaurants at the beach promenade nighttime. This is a minor issue with the balcony doors closed. - Balcony is rather small, but what a view. - The bathroom/toilet isn’t very private since it’s more or less a part of the bedroom. This may be of concern to some. None of the above bothered us. In summary. This is a place you primarily choose for the location. We had a great time there.
