B&B Tra L'Etna e il Mare

The place is nice clean but the person in the kitchen (Alexandria) was very unhelpful and had a bad attitude whenever I asked for a coffee. We were not happy with her at all! But on mondays there came husband and wife to help us and they were very pleasant very good people. The owner was nice guy but there were no robes or slippers has advertised! The b|b is to far from the main city..

Wonderful, friendly staff; nice breakfast; comfy room with nice bed.

Clean, walkable to the the center, fine breakfast.

Good air conditioning, and most of all they were very accommodating. I was traveling with friends, and one person arrived Friday, another 2 Saturday and the last one Sunday, so we had to make separate bookings for 1, 3 and 4 people. They would have had every right to make us check out every morning and re-check in every afternoon, and give us new rooms each time, but instead they gave us the same room from the first day, so that we didn’t have to go through all that hassle, and so that we wouldn’t have to pack our bags every day. I really appreciated that. More formal hotels or regions wouldn’t have had this kindness. One struggle in a friends trip is that b&b only give one key per room. That requires people to either always be together or coordinate in complex ways to be able to get in, but that was the case in all my stays in Sicily over 2 weeks. So I recommend this place because they were really helpful with a very complex booking. And they had breakfast! They make you coffee or cappuccino etc to order and it was included in the price.

Great staff and service. Very friendly and helpful. Great location and property was clean and affordable.

Walking distance to the centre. Breakfast is good.

Staff were all very friendly and helpful with fantastic recommendations

Great property with great staff (plus the dog)..

Thankyou for waiting for me and hosting me. I will come again. This is a B&b it’s a shared living space with private rooms. There is a dog and there are people chatting around you so expect that! But the hosts are nice, the rooms are good and I enjoyed my time there. People need to read reviews and prepare before booking places. Yes it’s not in the centre but who wants to be in the middle of all the noise? I don’t! I walked 15 mins and it was great. Thankyou to the girls for their welcome and kindness and I will def come again and recommend!

No cold water. Crumbling facility. Needs renovation.

A bit off away from the center but close to the airport. Complicated check in and series of doors / keys. Communication is good though and the cleaning lady is nice. Breakfast limited. Recommend for very short stays and if you are budget conscious.

The property was quite hard to find and in a quiet dark street which as a solo female traveller, felt a little uncomfortable. Once inside though, the room was fine for my needs if a little basic and the lady at breakfast was lovely

Great quality for price. Very friendly staff. Big rooms. Nice bed.

Der BnB-Besitzer Alessandro ist ein unfassbar netter Mann, welcher keine Fragen offen lässt! Super Lage, einer der besseren Ecken Catanias Zimmer war außerordentlich groß für 3 Personen - Das Zimmer war für unseren Geschmack dreckig. Die Bettdecken hatten Flecken und es roch nach Hund, weil Alessandro einen großen Kampfhund hat. - Die Toilette war zu eng. Die Belüftung war extrem laut. Es dauerte mehrere Minuten, bis man halbwegs brauchbares Warmwasser bekam. - Schlechter bis hin zu gar keinem WLAN-Empfang - Betten sind zu weich. Rückenschmerzen sind vorprogrammiert. Ich würde dieses Hotel definitiv nicht erneut besuchen. Für eine Nacht war es gerade noch aushaltbar. 2/5 Sterne

Great services!

I liked the B&b which was clean ,safe ,generally quiet ,and only about 15-20 minutes walk from the city's main thoroughfare ,Via Etnea .The staff were friendly though only one or two could speak good English.I thought the cost of the accommodation was good value for money and I would recommend it to any travellers on a budget like myself .

My friend and I stayed here around late July to early August and it was a pleasant stay. Staff were approachable and friendly. Alessandro was very helpful with excursions and taxi bookings and even recommended restaurants close to the area. Upon early arrival before check-in time, the room was thankfully ready. Our room was decent with all the basics needed and had no issues. Breakfast was really delicious. A selection of sweet and savoury pastries, fresh fruits, mozzarella and tomatoes, bread, a selection of jams, cereal, hot drinks and fruit juice. The staff even offered to make expresso or cappuccino which was nice. The B&B is very close to some tourist spots in Catania. You could take public transport, but my friend and I decided to walk and explore.

This place is terrible to stay for even one hour. So dark, old and not very clean. Do not deserve this place.

Alexandra the owner was an excellent hotelier and very friendly and helpful, also his son Ricardo. I shall miss the BIG evening meals we had together and the Mount Etna climb with Alexandra. Hotel small but very clean and tidy, breakfast was a pleasure. Excellent food and wine in the restaurants, great value, and very friendly. Sicilian hospitality is excellent.
