Excellent location and hosts

The accomodation was fantastic and communication with the hosts was excellent. It was 5 minute walk from the fish market and the main piazza. Giovanni met us at the apartment and was very helpful and welcoming. I would highly recommend staying here while in Catania.

Could Not Have Been Better

The location of the apartment is perfect as is the apartment itself. Meticulously clean. Plenty of space to stretch out and socialize with travel partners. Easy check in. Great communication and suggestions. Coffee pods and some snacks were provided. I can’t say enough good things about this apartment and the host. Stay here! You will absolutely love it!
