Great hotel. Sub-par neighborhood

The hotel itself was great. Brand new with nice pool and walking distance to the beach. The service was great and the personel was very welcoming and helpful. The breakfast was also great. However, the neighborhood wasn't great. Lots of trash on the street even the seashore. In general, i dont recommend Catania in Sicily. We liked Syracuse muxh more. Better maintained and more activities.

A little disappointed

Door was very hard to open. Jacuzzi did not work. There was a bar but it was not open. And the site said they had airport transfer but they did not. But the city was great
