La Casa della Pietra - Apartment with Terrace (#6)

Nestled along a quiet residential side street in Noto, is the rarest balance: a quiet stay next to the bustle of a busy historical town. 
The accommodations were fantastic, everything from the placement of the location, the cleanliness of the rooms, the beautiful windows and view onlooking to the quiet street and the attention to detail.
The rooftop terrace is pure magic. Up there, away from the street level, you get open sky and views stretching over the terracotta rooftops toward the horizon. It was our go-to spot for quiet morning espressos before the town woke up, and for uncorking a bottle of local wine at dusk as the golden skies faded into twilight and the night came alive.
Check in and check out we’re super simple, but what’s fascinating, besides the traditional European locks, was the digital systems and security in place to ensure safety and comfort.
 The host was really super quick to respond to our needs, very kind, easy to understand and helpful.
Next is the tourist material and the suggestions for an experiencing food and culture there- not all places do this. 
Overall, 5 out of 5 stars - highly recommend for this affordability, cleanliness, host engagement, privacy and practicality. We loved it!
