two nights in Catania

The room was very very beautiful. The check-in has been entertaining but at the same time disastrous. There was no name on the bell downstairs and you had to have a phone and charged to have the access to the room. No staff has been on site for two days. The owner kept on exchangeing very vague textes on whatsup and waited until the check out to explain the payment procedures which was very annoying because during the whole stay I had to wonder and ask when and how to settle the payment of the room, wasting my time during the staying. The location is fantastic in a great area.

Nice vacation? Don’t go here

The owner is very sweet and try’s to make your stay as nice as possible. The bed is sooo hard that we didn’t sleep very much. We didn’t have a remote for the tv and in the 7 days we where ther we didn’t have any WiFi in 4 days. The toilet was broken. Where are no breakfast or bottled water as the website said.

Piacevole soggiorno in centro a Catania

Camera pulita giornalmente e dotata di aria condizionata, silenziosa, situata in centro a Catania. Autonomia per entrata e uscita dal B&B. Unica pecca: l'appartamento è situato al secondo piano di uno stabile senza ascensore, quindi lo spostamento di oggetti pesanti (es. valigie) o ingombranti (es. passeggini) è difficoltoso.

Good location

We were a bit disappointed with this B&B. We booked it as the reviews were above average. However, we feel that is a bit overrated. The location is great. 20 minutes from train station and from the historic centre. The price is great for the accommodation. The room was big enough for two people and was clean enough. The Internet connection was almost non existent, very slow. The bathroom has seen bether days.

B&b vicinissimo al centro di Catania. Struttura un po' vecchia. Stanza discretamente arredata ma la pecca è la pulizia della camera: pareti pieni di insetti morti e piumoncino un po' sporco. Personale gentilissimo.

Seulement bien situé

Ce B&B est bien situé au centre de Catane, proche de l'avenue principale. L'accueil est pour le moindre inexistant, pas de relation humaine. L'état général peut paraître satisfaisant mais la propreté reste à désirer tout comme le confort de la literie. Sans oublier que les fenêtres donnent uniquement sur la cage d'escalier, pas de possibilité d'aération et remonté des bruits et de tabac.
