About this property
Porta di Castro Design Apt by Wonderful Italy
Beautiful and modern apartment with a large furnished terrace, a few steps from the beautiful Villa Bonanno, in the district of Ballarò.
The apartment, located on the third floor of a period building located in the historic center of the city, has been recently renovated and spreads on two levels enriched by a beautiful terrace featuring a dining area, a barbecue and sunbeds from which to admire the view of the city.
The apartment opens onto a hallway that separates the sleeping area from the stairs that lead to the living area on the upper level. Both bedrooms are equipped with a queen-size bed, a desk, a French window with a balcony and an ensuite bathroom (one with shower and one with bath and shower). One of the two rooms also boasts a tv.
Going up to the upper floor, some stairs lead to a large and bright open space characterized by a large window that overlooks and gives access to the terrace, and a geometric flooring in shades of blue and white that recalls the furnishings. The living area features a sofa, a TV, a dining table and a fully-equipped kitchen with an oven, a dishwasher, a kettle, and a coffee machine. An additional toilet completes the layout.
*The apartment is located in the ZTL (limited traffic zone) area, therefore we suggest leaving the car in one of the nearby parking and enjoying the old town on foot.
*Upon arrival or a few days before arrival it may be required to pay a tourist tax, which varies according to local regulations. You will find your reservation details within the Guest Area of Wonderful Italy.

The host was almost an hour late meeting us upon arrival. The cleaning people came and let us in with them. So the place was not ready at the agreed in time. While the place is beautifully renovated, the bathroom shower floods the room. We could not make coffee with stove top espresso maker. It was not a bialetti but appeared to be missing the basket to hold the coffee grounds. And there were no pods for the other machine. I would not stay here again

Ja, aber...
Zentral, guterRenovierungszustand. Küchenausstattung allerdings sehr puristisch: Weissweingläser:3, Rotweingläser:2, Proseccogläser:0. Küchenutensilien: spärlich. Die Dachterrassen mussten zunächst gereinigt werden, bevor Stühle und Liegen benutzbar waren
