A lot of good things about this place: - very clean - pleasant atmosphere - new bathroom and furniture - room big and comfortable enough for our family of 4 (one of the 3 beds was separate, in a former closet, thus giving some privacy) - cozy kitchen, well equiped (including toaster, coffee machine, microwave, fridge, etc.) - a small garden with a cozy terrace - nice personnel (including Andrea, who was very helpful) - close to city center (15 minutes walk to Villa Bellini/ 25 minutes to Via Crociferi) and Metro station ITALIA (3-4 minutes walk) or ALIBUS bus station to airport - quiet and safe neighbourhood - italian breakfast offered for free is worth to mention (eggs, cheese, butter, panettone, milk, cereals, honey, etc.) and also coffee is very good. A plus was the gesture of Andrea to allow us to leave the luggage for some hours, in order to freely stroll around the city! GRAZIE MILLE, ANDREA!

Hard to complain about anything. Only a small suggestion: for guests arriving very late (as we did), 1 bottle of water in the room would be truly helpful...

The property boasts impeccable cleanliness and safety standards, ensuring a worry-free stay. Its convenient location offers easy accessibility, complemented by well-appointed furnishings, including a delightful kitchen and communal space. Additionally, there's a small garden provided for smokers' convenience. However, my experience was marred by the unfortunate assignment of room number 1, situated on the ground floor amidst the communal areas and garden. Throughout the night, fellow guests indulged in late-night wine sessions and jovial smoking in the garden, causing significant disturbance to my sleep. Furthermore, early morning conversations in the kitchen reverberated into the room, disrupting any chance of peaceful rest. While these disturbances may be isolated incidents, I strongly recommend packing earplugs for a more restful stay. Additionally, I found the room to be overly humid, necessitating constant ventilation through an open window for comfort. Despite these challenges, the property's cleanliness, safety, and amenities remain commendable.

The location is very convenient, it is close to city centre, shops and public transport. Andrea was very helpful and friendly, he's a super host! We had a really good experience here. Everything was good, the rooms were clean and big, the breakfast was really nice and Andrea was also really attentive and gave us some nice places to visit in near Catania. We highly recommend this place. We would rate the B&B as one of the nicest, best-located, and real value of all the places we have stayed. Thank you Andrea!

Comfortable and clean accommodation. The bathroom is modern. Breakfast is well supplied. This is a quiet part of the city and you will feel at ease here. Check in was easy and the room was ready ahead of time.

It's a bit away from the nightlife and eateries although it's not too far to walk and you could also take the metro from the nearby Italia station.

The accommodation was cozy and situated in a pleasant neighborhood, just a 10-15 minute walk from the city center and main attractions. The host was very responsive, providing detailed information on check-in procedures, directions to the main attractions, and recommendations for good cafes and restaurants. Overall, this BnB is an excellent option for the price.

It was in a good place with bus stop to airport very close by. Staff (Andrea) were very helpful. The room was very quiet so I could sleep really well. They prepared a very nice video on the island attractions that is on the breakfast space. Very nice home made cakes even though I don’t have a sweet tooth.

Perhaps more windows

The host is very nice and explains everything in English. Before our arrival we received an extended information about Katania - what to see, where we can eat etc. Whenever I had a question about rented car he explained as well as he could during the breakfast (he is providing service during the breakfast - makes coffee). The breakfast is sweet but we couldn't expect anything else in Italy so we got used to it. The place has a nice patio where you can eat or sit in the evening. The room is big enough and has everything you need - it's tidy and cosy. Thanks!

I don't have anything I can write here - maybe just that location is not in the center but we picked it and we knew it - instead it was easy to park our rented car! :)

The apartment was a great size for a couple!! There was also a great kitchen available. Breakfast was delicious and the host was very helpful throughout. We would definitely book this again.

The location can be a bit dark if coming at night but it was also a easy walk to the Europa station.

Very good location. The subway station and the bus station are very close. Excellent connections with the airport. In front of Tribunale di Catania is also the Alibus station. The Interbus main station is a 15 minutes walk, unless you use the subway to station Giovanni XXIII. The Interbus main station provides conection to all major locations on Sicilia at a decent price. Room was cleaned every day and it looked impeccable. Andrea, our host was very kind and clearly he has a vast travel experience .... knows exactly what a tourist needs. Overalls we had a wonderful stay at Il Cortiletto and definitely worth the money we paid.

There is a penalty fee for towels used to take off makeup.... :) . I found it a little ... peculiar but considering the amount of work to keep everything clean maybe is normal .... I don't know.

Thé location and the staff. Also it was very clean. Also Andrea sent a great list of how to arrive at property, good restaurants and other helpful hints. Very thorough.

There is nothing I didn’t like. What might have been helpful is to have a map of catania to hand out and after breakfast there is no staff on premises though i think if needed they would have responded .
