    The only thing that we did not like were the pillows but we are use to temperpedic, but it’s all a preference really.

    The property was well maintained, safe and so convenient to everything in Catania. Was also so quiet even though we were on a main thoroughfare.

    Beware there's steps to climb to get to the property if you are carrying heavy luggage. Needs a few shelves for clothing storage as only one wardrobe with hangers available.

    Great breakfast, within walking distance to city centre and adequate facilities for what you would need for a few days in Catania. Pet and kid friendly. Free parking in neighbouring streets.

    I have nothing bad to say about this place

    The owner and staff were friendly, the breakfast was excellent, the hotel was clean, and it was a short walk from the city. Even though the B&B was so close to the city, there were plenty of free parking spaces, which was fantastic. We will definitely stay here again.

    Everything was great.

    The location was just 5-10min walking distance from all the best restaurants in Catania. Elisa was just wonderful, greeted us at the beginning, helped us out with choosing restaurants and beaches (great choices) and she was just so positive and helpful. Breakfast was simple and delicious. Cannot wait for me and my wife to come again !

    The Whitney Houston room could use a little more maintenance and upkeep, but everything worked. Bathroom is cramped with no place to put anything, but the water pressure and temperature were good.

    Located on the main straight running through the historic district within easy walking distance to everything. Don’t be put up by the streetside appearance – the whole city seems a bit rundown and filled with graffiti; but behind those doors and up on the second floor, you will find a nice, quiet accommodation. Easy in-person check-in. Spacious studio apartment with space to layout luggage and still maneuver around. Place to hang clothes. WIFI was a bit weak and sporadic at times, but I was able to upload hundreds of pictures online. Ample electrical outlets for charging. Shower amenities provided. Air conditioning took a bit to get going, but provided a cool, restful sleep. Free parking near the B&B is possible, but not likely; however, paid street parking via the EasyPark App was efficient and very affordable even for the whole day. Great cold breakfast served on terrace. Advance communication with host was timely.

    We liked everything :)

    Before our arrival, the host gave us precise instructions on how to get to the accommodation and we never found it easier. It is in the very center, only 500 m from famous landmarks. dear Elisa welcomed us and immediately gave us useful advice for the days ahead. The room is clean and tidy. Breakfast is fresh pastries and coffee every morning, and a special treat is the terrace of the common area of ​​the accommodation. Highly recommended to anyone planning a trip to Catania.

    The host was absolutely amazing always there to help, friendly and full of advices, even got a discount on a hop on hop off trip, the breakfast was ok, enough to get you started. The location is great, a 3-4 minutes walk from the city center with a lot of restaurants nearby. Very old building with an inner yard just like in the movies, for us it was an amazing experience.

    The entrance is not inviting, dirty and rundown. It needs attention urgently. It looks like a garage door so it is easy to miss it. The area is convenient as it is an easy walk to old city and bus to airport.

    Breakfast sufficient and as we said we were leaving early, the breakfast was arranged for us. Sweet and savoury options. Very pleasant staff.

    Excellent breakfast with bread, cheese, salami and a wide range of sweet temptations, juice and espresso. Room was very quiet, no street noise entered if you kept the window closed. A top sheet was provided on the bed. So many places these days just give you a duvet which is useless when the temperature is in the mid 20s. So, for me this was noteworthy. The place is very central, easy walking distance to all the sights and many restaurants.

    - Nothing to dislike.

    - The location is fantastic for exploring the city. It is close to all the main tourist objectives.There are also several small shops around to buy water etc. - Elisa and Alessandra were very welcoming and helpful, our room was ready before check-in time. Elisa gave us many suggestions about what to visit and where to eat and was very friendly and responsive to our questions/ requests and she speaks English which was helpful. - The included breakfast was great and the terrace area was a nice and cozy place where to enjoy it or just sit around. - The accommodation was very clean and well maintained. - The Whitney room had a nice balcony overlooking the street. - Bed mattress was nice and solid. Pillows could be improved on, I personally found them a bit to soft/ thin. - AC present and working great. The fridge was also very useful. - We left our bags for a few hours following checkout - this was very helpful for us. Overall, choose this place with confidence, it really is great, we stayed for 2 nights and would 100% stay there again should we return to Catania
