My husband, daughter and I stayed here for two nights last summer. I chose the location of Caltanisetta because it was midway between the towns of Santa Caterina and Castrofilippo, which is where three of my grandparents were born and raised before emigrating to the U.S. Beatrice, the owner, was curious as to why we chose to visit this part of Sicily. When I explained, with the help of one of her bi-lingual employees, that I wished to visit the streets where my grandparents lived and find out more about my ancestors, she graciously volunteered to drive us to the Registry office in the center of town so we could find out more. So along with another bi-lingual staff member who acted as translator, we did just that! So, yes, the rooms are not fancy and yes, this is definitely more a B&B than a hotel, and yes, this is not a traditionally touristy part of Sicily (we were the only non-Italians staying there at the time), I will never forget the kindness of Beatrice and her staff in their unasked for assistance in my genealogy search. I highly recommend the Antichi Ricordi!More
