“Great stay in Catania”
Big comfortable single bed, the location is perfect, right in the center. There's a roof terrace with showers if you'd like to sunbathe. Breakfast buffet was very good with big variety to choose from. The staff at the reception is friendly and helpful.

“Perfect”
Perfect location, welcoming atmosphere, kind and professional staff, superb rooms furnished with style and perfectly clean, rich breakfast. My room this time had also access to the terrace on the 4th floor - so I could see Catania from above at dusk. Beautiful!
