"Very clean room and extremely helpful staff. They helped us figure out the best way to get to the city centre and how to enjoy it. Just note that, if you're coming from the train station at Taormina-Giardini, it is best to get a taxi because the hotel is on the side of a hill and it's a steep climb with your luggage. Without luggage, however, it's quite easy to reach."
