This is a terrific apartment in a great area. Easy to walk to and from the bus and train stations, easy to walk to multiple restaurants and bars. The host Giuseppe was very helpful and friendly, and I would definitely stay here again.

Un bien joli pas-de-porte.

Merci à Giuseppe pour son accueil à 23h le soir de notre arrivée. Giuseppe a toujours été très réactif à nos demandes en particulier quand le climatiseur a montré une faiblesse. Le climatiseur est d'autant plus important qu'il est le seul à renouveler l'air dans ce pas-de-porte n'a pas d'autres fenêtre que la porte d'entrée. L'appartement est très bien agencé et avec beaucoup de goût. La literie est très confortable mais les passages dans la rue très bruyants.

L'appartement est bien placé par rapport au centre-ville on peut tout visiter à pied beaucoup de commerce autour de l'appartement la seule difficulté pour moi c'est de trouver des places le soir dans la rue pour la voiture propriétaires sont charmants et explique bien tout ce qu'il y a à voir c'est un endroit recommandé pour ceux qui les visiter catane et ses environs

Chaleureux ...

Accueil très chaleureux de la part d’Adriana et Giuseppe qui nous ont donné beaucoup de conseils sur la visite de Catane et de ses environs. Ils restent très disponibles durant le séjour . L’appartement est bien situé pour visiter Catane à pied , bien aménagé ainsi que bien décoré. Beaucoup de petites attentions nous attendaient ( frigo garni ,boissons fraîches... )

Adrian in Giuseppe were the Perfect Host and hostess. They had everything we needed to have a perfect 3 days stay in Catania.We would like to note that the stairs to the comfortable king/queen size bed could be difficult for older people. We enjoyed the coffee and yogurt provided. Kitchen was well stocked. Could easily have stayed longer.

Brilliant Catania Apartment. Good Location. Excellent Hosts.

Adrianna and Guiseppe met us at the apartment when we arrived late after 8pm. They were very welcoming and gave us lots of useful information on great restaurants, all of which were brilliant. Recommendations on travelling around the area were really helpful. We enjoyed trips to Acitrezza, Syracusa and Taormina by bus. The apartment was very comfortable and well equipped. We slept really well but earplugs were useful on NewYears' Eve and New Years' Day. Many thoughtful touches such a breakfast materials, milk, water and wine (and fizz for New Year!) helped to make our stay really relaxing and special. Easy to get to from the airport and a fifteen minute walk to the historic centre. Adrianna checked to make sure we were ok and was always contactable including accommodating a late check out for a late flight. Catania is a great base to explore Etna and experience Sicilian warmth at any time of year. We recommend this apartment.

Comfortable, convenient, lovely hosts

Apartment was spotlessly clean, well-furnished and well-equipped. It was conveniently located both for enjoying the city and walking to public transport such as the airport bus, and free on-street parking was usually available just outside. Adriana and Guiseppe went to great lengths to make us welcome and ensure we had everything we needed.

Fantastica location! Fantastici proprietari! Consigliato!

La casa è davvero bellissima! Pulita e funzionale! Non mi sarei mai aspettata di trovare anche tutto per la colazione e di più! Propietari gentilissimi e disponibilissimi. Vicinissima al centro. Posizione ottimale. Non ho dato tutte le stelle solo perchè abbiamo avuto problemi con il trovare un posto auto vicino alla casa...ma è solo per essere estremamente pignoli dal momento che è specificato che non ha il parcheggio. CONSIGLIATISSIMO!!!

Warm and welcoming.

Very comfortable and Adriana and Guiseppe were welcoming and very helpful. We used our time in Catania not only to explore the city but also as a base from which we also visited Syracruse, Taomina and we stayed three nights near Etna. Travelling to and from these places was very easy as the accommodation is very central.
