Perfect located to explore Catania. Nice and clean place, but good to know it’s on the third floor without elevator and the bathroom is not attached to the actual room.
Great place to stay. Super easy to walk to the lively area of town (less than 5 minutes away). Clean room, comfortable beds. Super spacious. Plus a vending machine and fridge in the communal area that you can use.
Breakfast was okay, not many options but enough to have a bite before you start your day!
Just beware that the bathrooms are detached from the rooms (this is on the listing but you may miss it)! Not an issue at all as it was super close to the room.
Also note that the rooms are at the top of the building, so you have to climb 6 flights of stairs to get up! Not an issue for us but good to know if it may be a problem for you.

We arrived at about 3pm and searched for about 10 minutes to find our hotel. Luckily we spotted a small sign in front of a locked door. We needed to phone the owner for access. The hotel was 4 flights up the stairs but the room itself was nice. The hotel was very close to the plaza with lots of restaurants and shops available. We only saw one staff member the whole time, with very little interaction. The breakfast was very limited but still did the job. They arranged a taxi ride for us to the airport for 3am for 30 euros.
Ci siamo trovati bene, come location, ubicazione, disponibilita’, spazi, colazione, pulizia, ma purtroppo la stanza era un po’ fredda, poiché non andavano i riscaldanti (mese di dicembre)
Despues de una hora buscar aparcamiento, y otros 2 horas en la puerta, nadie noa habrio ni contesto el teléfono l, tuvimos que irnos y buscar otro hotel, espero quw me devuelvan el dinero
Jolie chambre mais le personnel qui nous a accueilli ne parlait pas anglais. Nous avons eu la désagréable surprise de constater à notre arrivée que la salle de bain n'était pas attenante à la chambre.
Très belle terrasse et idéalement situé.
I had a bit of difficulty finding the place as it was down a small street. The host was able to let me in quickly once we had made contact. The room was huge and had a great view. The room was very clean.

Prima verblijf
Bed is erg hard, maar verder prima voor de prijs. Service okay.
Erg aangenaam verblijf en aardig en zeer behulpzaam personeel!
De kamer was erg schoon, bedden comfortabel en het ontbijt was heérlijk!
De ligging is perfect! Midden in het centrum. Alles is op loopafstand van enkele minuten! Écht een aanrader dus en voor herhaling vatbaar!
