The room was clean and spacious. Alessandro was warm, friendly and easygoing. I felt safe and relaxed. The location was very close to the Giardino Pacini (with the wonderful open-air market) and the Basilica Cattedrale.
I wish I had more clear instructions … I’m not a very saavy traveler, and I didn’t know how to use the air conditioner, how to turn on the stairwell lights, or how to access breakfast. This place would have been perfect for me when I was younger (like 30 years ago) and was more out-going … I would simply have asked if I didn’t understand something! 😂

I really appreciated the convenient location of the B&B, as it is centrally located and within walking distance of the city centre. The room was wonderfully spacious and the bathroom was spotlessly clean, which added to a comfortable stay. Additionally, the clear instructions provided for the self-check-in process made the arrival smooth and hassle-free. Overall, a great experience and I would definitely recommend this B&B for those looking for a pleasant stay in the area.
I must admit that I don't have any standout compliments to make. The bathroom was a tad narrow, but it was still practical and served its purpose effectively.

We had chosen the right location in the center, near the tourist sites. The view from the rooom was at a typical busy Catanya street but when windows are closed it becomes absolutely quiet in the room - perfect sound insulation. Enough food, coffee, tea and juice was at our disposal for breakfast. We could contact the manager any time via WhatsApp and our questions were answered immediately. We are grateful for that!
I wouldn't say there was anything we didn't like. We enjoyed our stay.

In the city centre and free juice and yoghurts available as part of the breakfast element. It was funky and artsy, I’d recommend it to anyone going to Catania and especially those aged 18-30. Very easy check in and detailed self check in instructions provided.
We noticed the WiFi turned off after 10PM everyday but no biggie. A weird smelling fragrance was sprayed in our room before we entered but we just opened a window I just remember that.

Great location, great apartment with nice atmosphere and art. An amazing terrace where you can enjoy the view of Etna, the sea and Catania. The breakfast is typical Italian - with sweet croissants, muffins, juice, coffee and tea, everything was packed and already left in the kitchen and fridge. We bought extra products from the famous Catania market, which is a stone's throw away, because we prefer cheese, prosciutto, vegetables, etc. for breakfast. The kitchen had everything you need in terms of equipment. The bathroom was at the level of the terrace (before you go out), you have to go up some stairs, so it's not bad to have slippers. All in all a very comfortable and lovely place with kind and helpful hosts.

The location, the temperature in the room in which the air con didn't need much to cool it down and also the cleaning service that gave us clean towels, and provided us with some food such as yogurts, juices, butter, roasts, jam ....
the temperature in the bathroom which was upstairs was really high. That said, I would choose it again though ....

Quirky but very local feeling room and building. Plenty of space in the room. Got in late but well accommodated for self check-in and check-out. Busy and fun location. Comfy bed and settings. Lovely to spend a night here.
Breakfast was a little strange to work out what was what in the room and in the common area but not a big deal or fuss

The location is excellent. It is very close to the bus drop off from the train station as well as the fish market and duomo square. There were many restaurants and we really enjoyed exploring the area. Alessandro was very welcoming and gave us great recommendations of places to check out as well as a city map to help us. Just as a note the breakfast is self-serve (packaged toast and jam, juice, and yogurt) if you would like more plan to go out.

The B&B was in a fantastic spot in the heart of the city centre. Walking distance to most things you would want to see in Catania. The room was simple and clean, perfect for our short stay here. The bathroom was seperate but private for our room. All together a good stay ☺️

Friendly, helpful check-in and very nice cleaning lady in the morning, who helped with the coffee machine. Lots of space in our room, TV, en suite facilities and effective air con. Great coffee in the morning and self-service fridge etc. Lovely roof terrace. Good central location- close to all main tourist attractions, including traditional fish market, bus terminal to airport etc.
Some of the decor is looking a little tired and could do with a refresh. Our attic room didn’t have much natural light, but access to the roof terrace made up for this.
