Il Borghetto di Gigi

Its near the train station so you can go to different cities by train or by the inter bus. But if you need to go to the city center of catania, you have ro walk for around 30mins or take the bus. Its equipped with the air con, washing machine and kitchen with fridge.

There has been some mosquitoes and ants in the room. You have to bring your own toilet paper cuz they only provide one roll for your whole stay. The room is next to the roas so you have to close the windows and curtain usually.

Jó elhelyezkedés

A fal allja omladozik. Nem jól szellőzik. Nagyon hangos a galéria.

It was close to the tourist area, a pleasant space

We didn't receive any service at the apartment, the extra bed was uncomfortable, and there was only one quill for two people. It's important to clarify that the extra charge had to be paid in cash since we only accept cards. Also, the attitude of the person who checked us in was a bit rude; it's understandable that they were tired, but we paid extra to be able to use the apartment.

Very clean and cozy apartment, nice space outdoors, the building is freshly renovated. Location is great: around 8 min walk to main train station, nice store (coop) in 2 mins walk. The hostess was helpful and responsive during our stay.

It would have been an amazing stay, if not the problem with electricity in the water. The tap water in bathroom and kitchen was stinging randomly. It happened sometimes when electrical grid was overload (e.g. when the cooktop was working, or air conditioning). It was really uncomfortable to take showers and wash hands/dishes, and it's potentially really dangerous. We have notified about the issue as soon as it started happening. The hostess was responsive, came to the apartment to help and check, even though it was late at the evening. She helped to confirm that it happens when the cooktop is working. We didn't want to spoil our vacation, and suggested that we could turn off the electricity in the whole bathroom while using it. The issue continued to happen during our whole stay. Unfortunately, there was no visit from the electrician during our stay, so I suspect that this is a structural problem with the apartment, which was already known to the host.
