Convenient location on Via Etnea

Convenient location mid way along the main part of Via Etnea. Plenty of shops, cafes and restaurants to suit all price ranges. B&B is handled via sofia hotel from where you have to collect keys. Check in very efficient. Aircon in room was great. Didn't avail of breakfast as so many little cafes about. Only issue is noise from corridor as other guests come and go.

Nice affordable spot close to all in Catania

There is traffic noise and not really any staff, except for the nice cleaning lady. You have to check in at the hotel downstairs.

Struttura in pieno centro

Ho soggiornato presso il B&B una sola notte, rispetto alle foto viste sul sito la camera era molto deludente e non sufficientemente pulita. L'arredo nell'insieme mi è parso squallido e poco curato, così come l'illuminazione a neon. Peccato perché l'appartamento ha indubbiamente il suo fascino e potrebbe migliorare nettamente se fosse gestito meglio.

위치는 중심가에 위치해 있지만 처음에 방문했을 때 안내데스크가 다른 호텔로 들어가야지만 체크인이 가능해서 불편했습니다. 중심부라 조금 씨끄러운 편입니다. 난방이 안되 너무 추웠습니다. 그것 제외하고는 가격 대비 하루 지내기는 안락했다고 생각합니다.

Comodissimo B&B in centro.

Un B&B davvero comodo per chi vuole soggiornare al centro della città, il personale è stato disponibilissimo sin da subito. La camera era addirittura più grande di quanto l'aspettavo avendo trovato un letto a una piazza e mezza anzichè un singolo. Un'ottima esperienza a un prezzo ragionevole.
