Almost nothing open in Messina

The location was close to the Regional museum which I wanted to see but quite a distance from other sites. I expected things to be closed for Ephinany but Sunday was the same. Not sure if it’s because of off- season or Sunday. Hard to find anything open - even the tobacco stores were closed so couldn’t buy tram tickets

The building reminds one of Brazil/Rio in architecture. Great dining/congress room with lovely balcony overlooking the beach/water. Interior very modern/trendy/stylish. The lady co-owner was very helpful & took pity on us giving a lift to a restaurant. That was a Great touch! Quite far to walk from the train station (~1hr walk with luggage) whereas very easy to use the tram (can buy ticket onboard) and get off at Stop Brasil which is only ~100m from Ciaru. Building exterior needs some work. Check-in process etc. handled by WhatsApp in advance which turned out very convenient when you're fore-warned/experience it as otherwise a little off-putting with notifications about charges for XY&Z. The reality was a nice pleasant stay! Interesting entrepreneurial effort, deserve support, I wish them well.

Property was lovely, entrance a bit odd and eerie, difficult to find as it’s not signposted. Lady that greeted us was pleasant but wasn’t very helpful, didn’t give any info on what to visit, local things etc. Just gave us the key and showed us to the room. Breakfast was ok, bit scarce and fruit, meat and cheese weren’t fresh. The room was never cleaned and rubbish was never thrown out, even though we stayed 4 nights (says it would be cleaned every 3). Nobody was ever around to ask for extra towels or toilet roll.

Ottimo B&B dal design moderno e da un panorama mozzafiato. Tutto tenuto molto pulito. Zona tranquilla, si dorme da Dio e tutto è abbastanza collegato con i mezzi pubblici. Proprietario cortese e gentile. Cinque stelle meritate.
