Check the location

This property is not near the sea nor can you see Etna, it a 6th floor apartment in a noisy town centre with limited parking and a street view. guess we should have read the description a little more closely, Aircon turned off for season so hot stuffy room at night or traffic noise keeping you awake is your choice here, lots of rules, no food allowed etc the apartment was OK for what it is, surveillance cameras in door and communal areas.

Not suitable for family with young children, very tight breakfast timing 7.30-9.00am, which is a 5 minute walk from the accommodation which is a coffee with a sweet pastry (no other options available), refused service even if 5 minutes late. No food can be eaten or stored in the room, no fridge or kettle in the room. Also check in was 12.30pm, but had to wait until 1.30pm as the rooms were still being cleaned. Felt the owner was not very understanding with young children who explicitly stated this is not a hotel. Terrace is also very high on the 6th floor, with a short landing, which is very dizzying, with grills not safe for young children. Accommodation was clean, however note rooms are not cleaned over weekends. This accommodation is best suited to single or couple for a short stay. This is first negative review of any hotel I have visited, very disappointed and stressful experience.

What a great place to stay at.

Pleasantly surprise by this guesthouse. Very clean, comfort was top notch and the owners were just amazingly kind and caring because I was badly injured while staying there at a restaurant nearby. I definitely recommend Etna Sea House to anyone looking for a great place to stay in Catania.

La struttura nel complesso è ben organizzata, il titolare è presente, rapporto qualità prezzo corretto. Stanza fredda, riscaldamento regolato a 19,2 gradi, termostato centralizzato e quindi non regolabile in stanza . Il valore risulta così troppo basso a febbraio, il servizio colazione non è in struttura ma bisogna spostarsi a piedi per circa 100 metri. Con poco si può migliorare di parecchio, anche pagando qualcosa in più.
