  : Spacious, clean and comfortable just a bit damp. Very close to the centre and public parking lot. Coffee and sugar in the cupboard to make an Italian coffee in the morning.
  : Everything was just fine.

  : Booked last minute due to flight being transferred to Trapani. Francesco was fantastic to deal with & very pleasant even through broken english. He helped me organize transport to the airport early the next morning and gave me a fantastic restaurant recommendation. Room was clean and comfortable. Small single bed next to the kitchen. Bathroom was good size. No complaints for single nights stay. All facilities available with tea & coffee available. Would recommend if needing short term accomodation.

  : It was awful and poor value for money.

  : The owner and all the staff were really lovely, kind and very friendly. Gafada 2 is in an excellent location. The apartment was very clean with excellent a/c. The interior of the hall building itself is beautiful with Old Sicilian pictures. I really liked this original look. There was also suncream,after sun,conditioner and sun umbrellas available which was a nice touch.
  : I booked very last minute and my room although nice was not as modern as those in the pictures.I also felt the bins could have been emptied every day as there was a kitchenette and it was hot when I was there. Overall though, it was a nice and pleasant stay.

  : Host was very nice and polite. When I asked our host for any favour such an advise for what car park we can use during the night (rent car), restaurants, bars etc., he was very helpful, Location was good (close to centre), but the neighborhood is not very tempting.
  : In the appartment I didn't like the size of shower, I didn't have a space to move (190cm).

  : Francesco was great! He was super helpful and welcoming, he met me on the street to make sure I found the place, he spoke English well and was very friendly and good humoured. And he also carried my bag up the stairs which I thought was very kind.During my stay he gave me lots of helpful information about finding my way around the city, and was always available for me to ask questions. On the first morning I was woken up by a lot of loud noises from building work going on next door, it was so loud it sounded like it was in my apartment. But I messaged Francesco and he contacted them asking them if they had to do work the following day, if they could start later, which they did. He was very quick to respond and try to make it better, but like he said, 'this is Italy'. The location is perfect, it's right on the edge of the historical centre so everything is really easy access. The bus stopped a few minutes walk away from the apartment, the ferry to Favignana is a 3 minute walk away, the beach is a 5 minute walk away, and all the cafes and restaurants you could want are on your doorstep.I also really appreciated that they provided a coffee pot and some coffee, that was a nice touch. Other things I appreciated;The lighting was nice, it was warm and not too bright. Tere was a hairdryerA window in the bathroom and bedroom so the flat felt airy.A balcony to dry my towel and bikini onThere was a freezerThe shower pressure was good an the water was hot
  : I felt the kitchen could have been better equipped. There was only one pan, but 4 hobs. It could have done with a frying pan. I tried to use the pot as a frying pan and ended up burning it but Francesco kindly supplied me with a metal scourer when I asked for one to clean the pan. Some small amendments i think could make a big difference;An ice tray in the freezerA frying panA full length mirrorSome bowls (there were only plates, and lots of them)Bigger glasses (there were small ones)It would have made a big difference if a small bottle of oil for cooking was provided along with the salt that was there. Most people won't want to buy a bottle of oil for a short stay.
