Oikos Vacanze

Disappointing accommodation in village out of Agrigento. We stayed here because it had secure parking and we could catch a bus into the valley of the temples. However, our hostess had no idea of bus times, or where the bus stop was, so in the end, we drove our car to the site, as it was about 10 km to the site. The pros: free parking, ok wifi, cooking facilities. The cons: hard to find unless you have good directions, room not very clean or well appointed, no toiletries, no coffee maker, no keys, no bottled water as they advised us not to drink from the tap, owner spoke no English and it was hard to make ourselves understood, hard to locate owner when we needed to eg to get the keys to our room, no tourist advice, owner not very interested in being helpful, no screens on the windows but lots of mozzies, so so breakfast. Located in a dirty residential area of a charmless town. No restaurants close by. Not good value compared to other B&Bs.

We decided to spend one night in this B&B and it was not what we expected. We had problem to find the house beacause it was located at the end of the narrow street and not good signed. From the windows you can see the car park and not finished house. The owner was really friendly and welcomed us kindly but it was only one light point there. When you like nice and charming Sicily B&B than this is nothing for you. But only for one night at the stop in Agrigento it is enough and cheap.

A nice B&B close to Agrigento (10 mins by car). Secure parking available (but one has to negotiate a narrow road full of potholes - requires attention, but doable). Big room, with a terrace. Communication in English was not possible. Breakfast is just coffee and a croisant. Kitchenette in the room. Supermarkets nearby. Good value for the money.
