Ruben è stato gentilissimo,ha atteso il nostro arrivo fino a tarda sera. Disponibile e attento . La posizione del b&b è silenziosa e tranquilla,vicinissima alla piazza. Noi ci siamo spostati a piedi per raggiungere negozietti del posto e ristoranti. Tra l'altro Nicolosi e' un luogo molto caratteristico e punto strategico per raggiungere in soli 30 minuti l'Etna per chi vuole godersi la meraviglia della montagna soprattutto quando c'è la neve,ma anche strategico per raggiungere la città di Catania. Ci siamo trovati benissimo e se dovessimo ritornare sicuramente scegliamo Ruben e la sua struttura
