Superb

Like many have said, the outside look can be deceiving, but once you enter you find yourself in a clean boutique hotel style with an antique look. Very clean and Giuseppe and Laura very helpful with tips around the city and arranging car transport. Centrally located but in a quiet street. OMG the breakfast has unlimited options and impossible to finish it all. Highly recommend it!

We actually walked to the property from the Catania bus station. This location is near bars, sex shop etc. I would it was unsafe but it also didn't feel very safe either because all the bars it's surrounded by. Outside of the property/street isn't super clean but it's Catania and most of the street were dirty. Inside the hotel was clean and super beautiful. The staff was super nice and helpful. Our AC seems to not work correctly.. so we got super hot at night..we stayed only one night so we just kinda dealt with it..

The exterior of the building looks more like an apartment building, but once you are inside the door of the hotel area, everything changes. My only complaint is about the outside, as there was a lot of trash out front. Inside everything was clean and the device was very good and well organized. This hotel is very close to a lot of things you can walk to. I recommend staying here.

The hosts were excellent, responsive. The rooms were clean and well appointed and maintained. The included breakfast was fantastic with far more food than we could eat and it was all delicious. My only complaint was the A/C was not working in our room, and it was pretty warm for September. Our friends across the hall said theirs worked great and their room was very comfortable. There is parking and it was safe off the street for a small extra fee, about a 5 minute walk from the property.

Conveniently located in central Catania - close enough to everything but in a quiet street. Rooms are spotless and spacious with excellent furnishings. Air conditioned, which is welcome when you get out of the 30+ degree heat. Staff extremely friendly & helpful. Restaurant recommendations are provided too - covering all types. Breakfast can be ordered to your room or a voucher for a local café. One cautionary word. This property is located at the top of steps (or a hill) so be careful with the route you choose to get there if using Google Maps from the central bus or railway stations. Highly recommended!

I stayed here with my mother in one on their suites. Such a lovely room. The city Catania has quite a bit of graffiti. Don't let that fool you. As a creative I can appreciate the vibe of the city. I noticed a lot of review were about the outside. Anyways, the staff left me a very detailed explanation of how to get into the building and where everything was. They were very punctual in replying back to me. The room was stunning. Breakfast was included in my package. They brought it to our room and we got to decide what time was best. One of the employees organized a tour of Mount Etna for us. The tour was amazing. We ended up quading up Mt Etna and having a tasting tour. Everything was fantastic. I would absolutely recommend staying here for anyone.

Giuseppe was outstanding - over and above helping us to get parking and helping us to get our suitcases up the stairs. Great stopover on our way to Noto.
