It's in a central location. It was clean and the owner was kind. Having a courtyard is an added bonus.

“Nice for a short stay in Catania, would recommend.”
This place is very close to the center, you have a lot of bus stops around it, markets as well as restaurants (a lot of them are amazing). The little balcony garden is wonderful. You have an AC, coffee machine, lots of towels. The host was a good communicator.

“Excellent séjour 10/10”
Exceptional – 10/10 I had an amazing stay at this property. Above all, David is an amazing human being—kind, helpful, and always available when needed. He went out of his way to recommend the best places to eat and made my stay in Catania feel truly welcoming. The room was spotless, very comfortable, and located in a perfect central area, making it easy to explore the city. If you’re planning to visit Catania, this is an excellent choice. I highly recommend staying here—100%!

“Lovely host experience but not so lovely bathroom.”
The owner David was absolutely lovely and went above and beyond to check us in and organise us to get to the airport for the checkout day. The aircon in the room and the tv were great! The bedroom was really spacious and there is a cute courtyard just outside, really close to heaps of food options too. The shower flooding the apartment was a read downer but the place had great potential.

It is a cozy and comfortable apartment and has a very good location. It is in the central part of the city and there are very good cafes and shops within walking distance.. The host is very kind and attentive. It was definitely worth the money paid.

“Great place to stay”
We arrived in Catania and received a message from Davide. He met us outside the property which saved us time. Room is clean , comfortable bed, hot shower , some coffee pods and lots of information from Davide about where to eat. Good bakery and many restaurants very close. We will return because it is a great location and reasonable price.

It was pretty quiet for the city center, facing inside yard. First floor, so you don't have to carry your bags upstairs(a lot of buildings doesn't have elevators there). The host was pretty nice and helpful. No so much day light, but considering how hot it is in there maybe its not that bad. .

We had such a lovely stay here! The rooms are clean and spacious, working ac, everything you need you have it there! The host was always willing to help and answer whatever questions we had. The location is also amazing, because everything you need is around, bus stops, markets, restaurants and the main street. Plus for the price point it’s definitely worth it. :))
