Comfortable and convenient to walk around the city from this apartment AND also easy to drive in and out of Catania from this area.

We were met by a host who showed us around the property and gave us information about the area like parking etc. Very helpful and friendly. Property has 3 good size rooms each with a king bed. 1 room has a bathroom off its balcony, otherwise there is a shared bathroom inside. The shower was a little on the small size but otherwise everything was great. Very much like a home away from home. There is a small flight of steps before the elevator and it is on the 4th floor. 2 of the bedrooms have their own ac wall unit. Parking around area is limited for free but there are paid options nearby.

Easy access to metro (and rest of the city)...lively neighbourhood... missing eating establishments...

The hosts were cordial and very attentive. The unit is lacking. It is old and charming but not at all as described. There are 3 bedrooms, 2 of the three had air conditioning- with some manipulation and a fan, the third bedroom cooled down. There is no air conditioning in the main area of the unit, living room and kitchen. Could not leave ac on to coolUnit completely bc there is a weekly limit of 100kw and a charge for more usage. The shower has barely any water pressure- very difficult to rinse hair. The area is not one I would choose to vacation in again. We used it as a central hub to then visit other areas of eastern Sicily. It would be more of an area I chose to stay if I had relatives near by and wanted to live with the locals. I grew up in a well kept Italian neighborhood in the Bronx.This was more like the areas I was told to stay away from, lots of graffiti, and trash on the streets.I guess it all depends on what you are looking for… this was not as described.
