Scenic and atmospheric

Scenic location on hills overlooking Strait of Messina. House is spacious, artistic interiors reminded me of English novels. Rita, the owner, was gracious and readily available. The only downside was the out of the way location with hardly any shops or restaurants in the vicinity. We ordered in pizza.

Un cadre exceptionnel près de Messine

En dehors des appréciations positives d'évaluation de ce B&B, il faut mentionner le cadre extraordinaire (on a l'impression de séjourner au milieu de pièces de musée de grande qualité, avec un beau jardin où l'on peut s'assoir) et le cadre superbe avec une vue surplombant le détroit de Messine.

Where the bleep am I?

A fun place to stay if you can only find it. Nearly impossible even with GPS, as steep roads and curves had us "reaching our destination" on the street above, or below, or beside the target. Plus, no signs to direct you or confirm that you have arrived. For the more adventurous, and for those with plenty of time.

Great place to stay but located close to a run down part of Messina. Address provide by Expedia was wrong. Very hard to find because there are no signs. Nothing is close to this hotel.

Great views

This an great Bed and Breakfast, quiet location and perched on a hill overlooking the strait to mainland Italy. If you don't have a car and don't like walking, the location may be a detractor. Our hosts were very accommodating and helpful. Breakfast was quite adequate for starting the day.
