The room is in a residency building on the 4th floor, basically a flat divided to rooms and with a common area for breakfast or cooking. We chose it for it's location, the proximity of the market and the room with view on the Etna, which luckily we could enjoy. We came by car and parked in the parking 2 minutes from the place, paid 24 Euros for 36 hours (12 euros for 12-24 hours range), it's impossible to park on the street due to market every day. The room is nice, clean, bad is a bit hard, but we are easy going with that, breakfast is good. We could leave our luggage for a few hours more after check out, which was a plus. We communicated with Martina via WhatsApp, all went very smooth and met at one of the breakfasts, very kind person. The key system requires some practice but once you learn it, it's easy:)

I wanted to stay here because of the view on the market and Etna but we forgot that it also means more noise and dirt. The noise from the early morning was not that bothering rather one of the latino bar on the square which had the music on nearly all night long (this of course cannot be controlled by the hosts) and the closed windows did not keep the noise out. We had earbuds with us, so that solved the issue, just good to bear in mind. It is still worth staying there for the cleanness, view and vibe.

The apartment has shared fully equipped kitchen with fridge+freeze and coffee maker, which was very beneficial during our stay. The apartment was clean, and the bed was so comfy. There were clean towels (3 of each size, per person), hair dryer, soap, body wash, toilet paper. We were glad that bathroom was private within the same apartment unit as bedroom. The location of apartment is great! It is a few minutes away from the city center, and around 15-20 mins from bus/train station. There is a street market every day (except Sunday) just right in front of a building, but it is not noisy inside the apartment. Also, there is a market (store) near (just around a corner). If you are coming from the airport there is an ALIBUS line station near the apartment. The whole process from reservation, entering to the building, entering to the apartment was fully automated, which was strange at the beginning, but the host was responsive and supportive.

The location was great, with easy access from the airport via ALIBUS. It's situated next to a daily market, so the neighborhood might seem a bit untidy at first glance, but it’s an excellent spot to explore the city, with both the historic center and lively café/bar areas nearby. The bustling market is a must-see, offering an authentic local experience with noisy vendors and a diverse mix of buyers. Tiziana, the host, was fantastic—very helpful, coordinating check-in smoothly, and ensuring everything was arranged on time.

The building itself is a bit old, featuring a retro elevator that sometimes gets stuck on floors because guests forget to close the doors manually. It can be a bit inconvenient, especially with the apartment being on the 4th floor, but it's still manageable—and even adds a bit of charm to the experience))

The manager of the property was caring and very supportive during our stay. After one night we received question if everything is fine and they can help us with something. Next day we had a problem with car and didn’t know who to contact in this case. We wrote to the manager and had a response in 15 minutes with solution of a problem. It was so nice! Apartment was clean and we couldn’t even clean the dishes because lady who was there said that she will handle this. Apartment is easy to find in great location near to the popular market! Cafe where the breakfasts are is very nice, people are very friendly and food is delicious! With my whole heart I can recommend stay in this apartment :)

It was perfect, the location, the place, the staff, everything just as good as it could be. The market and the view made the stay very special, really liked it. The owner recommends restaurants if asked, MM! Trattoria was the greatest fish market restaurant I ever had.

The owner offers programs to do during your holiday. They ask to confirm in advance if you need. Despite we did confirm which programs we would attend some did not happen because of the tour guide’s low interest in us.

Excellent place to comfortably stay in Catania. Just a 1 min from the metro station and 5 minute's walk to Via Etnea Street, this is the central location for exploring the city and the other nearby places. All the places to visit in the city are close by, so the apartment is really in a central location - in the heart of the city. The apartment itself is excellent, clean, spacious, and cozy, with everything you need, a cute balcony for your coffee, Netflix, etc. You can even see the Etna volcano in the distance. There is a big open market during the day just in front of the building, which we found particularly interesting and a unique experience. The check-in and the communication were beyond excellent and very easy. The hostess Martina is a cheerful and kind girl, very attentive and full of suggestions, always at your disposal. The breakfast was truly amazing, with sweet and salty options, freshly brewed coffee in the morning, juices, and water. Since our flight was late in the evening, Martina let us leave our luggage and change before our departure as we spent the day at the beach. Thank you Martina for your hospitality and kindness. If we ever come back to Catania, this will definitely be our choice again.

everything was perfect

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this accommodation and my experience was nothing short of fantastic. The location is absolutely superb, making it incredibly convenient to explore the city. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. The ambiance of the place added a cozy touch to my stay. However, what truly stood out for me was the exceptional service provided by the owner. She was incredibly helpful, offering valuable insights into the local attractions and ensuring that I had everything I needed for a pleasant stay. From the moment I arrived, I felt warmly welcomed, and the hospitality extended throughout my entire stay. It's evident that the owner takes pride in providing a top-notch experience for guests. I would highly recommend this accommodation to anyone looking for a great place to stay with a perfect blend of comfort, convenience, and a welcoming atmosphere. I will definitely be returning on my next visit to Catania.

The B&B is located in the city center, it's very convenient to walk everywhere. Also, the bus from the airport stops just 2min walk from there. We arrived even earlier but our host Sara was super kind and arranged that we could get into the room a bit earlier. She was very super nice gave us recommendations and even helped us to order a taxi for the early departure. The room was nicely designed, spacious and clean.

We had the room facing the main street, so we got some noise at the night, so for me as a light sleeper it wasn't ideal. However everything else was fine.

Good location, great value for money and the staff and the owner were super helpful and nice! You have everything you need in the stay, and you can use all the facilities available.

Only that it could be a bit louder during the night or day due to market or nightclubs, however, when the door is closed, it has good sound isolation and it is not loud like that all the time.

Nice view from balcony to Etna and to the historical market. The room is big and comfortable, in the kitchen there are some snacks and coffee, place for breakfast has a lot of delicious things to choose. The city center is in a short walking distance.

For first timers in Sicily the location is a bit kind of culture shocking. But after a while can get used to it.
