Location was centrally located but not in the best neighborhood. Beautiful building. 1. Had no contact with any staff. They were never there. 2. Entry door broken upon arrival. We were unable to access the building for approximately one hour until maintenance fixed the door. 3. Breakfast that was to be included was pathetic.

Very helpful owner. Pleasant, “grandma-like” atmosphere, clean room close to the city center. I strongly recommend!

The room was beautiful and the location was close to the center of town. There was inexpensive parking just up the street. Lots of places to eat nearby. The only negative is that it is located on a very busy street and the traffic at night was really loud and we found it very difficult to sleep.

Excellent stay with friendly staff, clean rooms, and great location.

Very welcoming, great climate control. Would absolutely stay here again, cool elevator and location.

We loved the place and our host, she was friendly and helpful with all the tourist information and made our stay just amazing. The location is perfect. 5 stars! Katarina

Exceptional property, with a fabulous pool

It was very loud since it was on a main road and our SC

I only stayed for one night but Ester and everyone made me feel so welcomed and well taken care of. I would stay again just for them. The building is old and unique. Quite a place.

Easy walk to attractions and restaurants. Awkward access to the property with three doors to unlock, 2 of which are quite heavy.

The staff was very helpful. The room seemed to be clean and had all that was needed. The building was interesting. We left before breakfast. Parking was within walking distance away and the ariport was a short drive away. The only negative was the street and entrance seemed shabby and the men "helping" with street parking for a fee were annoying.

Not enough to poke around the neighbourhod. Overnight on my way somewhere else in Sicily. Once one figures out the bus from and to the airport way convenient. Alibus.

Great stay, went solo for a couple of days. I know Catania well and the location was perfect for me. Super hospitality and the value is correct!!

The hotel is very centrally located and the AC works well.

The hotel claimed it offers transfers from the airport for surcharges. In reality, when I requested the transfer to the airport, they called a taxi for 22-25 Euros. I also needed a transfer from the airport to the hotel after I have dropped a rental car, and they advised me to take an unfamiliar bus in an unfamiliar city. So, I had to take a taxi again. The conclusion is that this hotel DOES NOT offer the transfer. Also, for those traveling by car: you will be lucky if you find a parking space on the street near the hotel. So, I do not recommend this hotel, especially to those traveling by cars.

Tucked in a side street - very clean & accommodating with arrival & storing baggage during the day of departure.

Nice old building. Classic. Room was very spacious. Had a balcony. Close to shops and restaurants.

Absolutely superb! Stunning building and probably the best lift in the history of lifts!! The whole place is beautiful. Staff were kind, knowledgeable and really cared that I got the best out of Catania. Loved it.

This is a beautiful hotel located in an apartment building. There are many charming elements such as an old fashioned elevator with red velvet seats and beautiful painted ceilings. You can walk to the main piazza. There is a municipal parking lot very close by. Let the owner know you need to park your car and she will send you the exact name. There is also a large park with a fountain and playground right next to the parking lot, less than a 10 minute walk. There is also an open air fruit/veggie market there too. The area right around the hotel is a bit run down but we felt very safe walking with our toddler and it’s such a quick walk to the piazza. The owner was very kind and helped us with some questions. We loved our room, it was spacious and the air conditioning worked very well! The ceiling was painted beautifully. We would definitely stay here again.

Incredibly kind staff. We arrived late due to a delayed flight and somebody stayed at the reception for us until then. The host was also generous in giving us good advice for safe parking, activities and get arounds. The bed and breakfast is ideally located, at 2 min walking to catania's heart. The building is very old and charming. Our room was decorated simply but functionally. Everything was clean and the bed very comfortable.
