The location is absolutely perfect. It was located near many shops, restaurants and cafes. Entry was easy. It is a good value for the price. The host was extremely friendly and attentive. No issues!! The room and facilities were fully functional and very clean!
The beds were a bit hard. They are only foam mattresses. Also, parking is a bit of a walk and was an extra 20 euro's a day. Breakfast was very basic with all prepackaged items - satisfies the basic need but felt very processed.

Hosts Andrea and Barbara, fantastic couple, keen eye to detail. very welcoming. Spotlessly clean. It's home away from home. 24hr availability of continental Bfast. Fantastic Location A/C and beds very functional and comfortable. Our next stay will be at L' Elefante! Not enough words of praise.
Nothing at all!

Everything from the beginning till the end. Andrea is a great host who knows how to make you feel welcomed. Very clean and comfortable place. The towels were changed every day. Breakfast is available 24/7. This is a great thing if you have an early or late flight.
There's nothing to say here.

Comfortable accommodations with AC and elevator. Excellent location in the center of town near historic sites, markets and restaurants. Proprietor was very accommodating, allowing us early check in and eating an early breakfast as we had an early fight out. They also booked us a cab to the airport.

Breakfast was excellent and the hosts were lovely people. They very kindly took care of a bag for me for the week and we made arrangements to meet them the following Saturday to collect.
Catania as a city is not easy to drive around, with roadworks and streets closed to traffic at different times so even with our satnav ,it wasn't easy to locate but we got there. Unfortunately at the moment Catania has a big problem with street rubbish!

Lots to choose from and plenty of everything. The hosts were lovely people and extremely accommodating. Great location - very central with lots of restaurants nearby. Extremely clean and tidy
Arrived at about 9pm as the plane was late and had a little bit of difficulty finding the place as it is a private apartment so no big sign. Possibly my own fault as I may not have read arrival instructions. I phoned and was met at the outside door straightaway.

Location was perfect, the owners were very kind and available if needed. They can give suggestions on the city and the region close-by. Breakfast was with only industrial products and limited choice but it was good to have it available the full day.
Breakfast was with only industrial products and limited choice. Toilet products missed.
