I really enjoyed my time in the guest house, unfortunately I had to leave early because of some family matters but the time I spent there was amazing. The people in Gratteri are so welcoming and really made the trip for me.

The hotel is located about 40 minutes from Cefalu, the community is lovely. Nature, and the sights are wonderful and it's great for learning Italian. You will work more hours than agreed, and communication was really lacking. The house for volunteers only had running water in the morning and the bathroom didn't work.
