Casa Elide

Good

  : Casa Elide is great from the inside, but is very dilapidated from the outside. The common areas of the building are old and broken. Breakfast is great and the hosts are very accommodating.

  : i absolutely love the kindness of the owner and staff. they are absolutely amazing. The rooms were clean and neat
  : At first when i arrived i did not think it looked like that on the outside, was quite confused. If anyone should flush the toilet or use their shower it makes a very loud noise. Every time my heart skips a beat when that noise is going off.

  : The host was pretty friendly and nice. Other guests locked us from the outside and prevented us from the remote check-in but our host was quickly there for us. The apartment itself is at a relatively close distance to the city center.
  : The first bad impression was the building with ongoing (but temporal) works on it. However, the staircase leading to the apartment is damaged and might lead to someone being injured. We had an unpleasant situation with one of the neighbors in the building yelling something in Italian to us, which was quite scary considering the situation happening in the building hall. Next, the room and apartment don't reflect the photos on Booking and do look like they would have good use of renovation. The furniture is quite old, with chairs and the bed being extremely uncomfortable. The bathroom is clean, but as in most of the southern Sicilian cities, they forbid throwing toilet paper in the toilet, which many people might find disturbing (as we did). In continuation, towels were not changed for us for 3 days!? in addition to old furniture, the air conditioner was also old and not doing its job very well. Lastly, room doors have some "prehistoric era" key which makes it look like it's trivial to get into any room, and of course, makes you fear for your stuff. Although the host was extremely friendly, he has limited knowledge of English. Also, breakfast could be organized as a self-service rather than him being near guests and making the situation a bit weird.

  : Great location, easy check-in and very flexible with checking-in times and allowing us to leave bags at the flat after checkout.

Disappointing
Traveller Type:
  : We "got used" to stay there and the rooms were quiet.
  : A rather basic place compaired to the photos. The host should go to a panaderia and buy some good fresh bread in the morning instead of serving the boring white sandwich bread from a supermarket!
