Close to metro and grocery stores. The big outdoor market is about a 15 to 20 minute walk. We did walk to and from the historical area, but better to take the metro. We are seniors in our mid seventies. Our 50 year old son joined us. We did a tour to Mount Etna, the hike on the mountain was wonderful. We also cooked most meals at home, the kitchen was great. ##### Ray D.

They were very helpful and always available to answer any questions we had. The apartment was a little dated but very clean and comfortable. We had a car and found a parking space in the street every day. A good spot to tour from. MT Etna, Syracuse, Taormina were all about an hour away and easy to visit. Even spent a day at the beach which was 15 minutes away. ##### Sue N.

Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Patricia C. 18 Jul 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication Disliked: Location, listing accuracy The hosts were cordial and very attentive. The unit is lacking. It is old and charming but not at all as described. There are 3 bedrooms, 2 of the three had air conditioning- with some manipulation and a fan, the third bedroom cooled down. There is no air conditioning in the main area of the unit, living room and kitchen. Could not leave ac on to coolUnit completely bc there is a weekly limit of 100kw and a charge for more usage. The shower has barely any water pressure- very difficult to rinse hair. The area is not one I would choose to vacation in again. We used it as a central hub to then visit other areas of eastern Sicily. It would be more of an area I chose to stay if I had relatives near by and wanted to live with the locals. I grew up in a well kept Italian neighborhood in the Bronx.This was more like the areas I was told to stay away from, lots of graffiti, and trash on the streets.I guess it all depends on what you are looking for… this was not as described. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/dc068ee4-7c76-44fa-aa9d-03cef5ef6963-1752863542461.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/2d935da3-17d7-4d5f-bdd2-13a91f33d517-1752863542563.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Patricia C.

Such a disappointment as the apartment could be sufficent as it is a good size & convenient location.Very little could improve the apartment , it has great potential. We didnot mind the old furniture as it was characterful but put it along with grubby bedlinen and towels , dirty shower etc it just felt awful.On arrival the owner was really pleasent and helpful and because of this we didnot really checked the premises until he left.( silly decision ) We accepted that the air conditioning was for 2 bedrooms only although this was not clear on booking.Kitchen sufficent but lots of chipped crockery etc the biggest issue was the bathroom .The shower trims & grouting were absolutely black & dirty, no water pressure from shower head a trickle of water. Handbasin stained as well and floor tiles chipped in places. The towels were worn & discoloured , i resorted to buying new towels as couldnt use them.Bedroom linen while washed there was residue of stains . Again bought sheets . These all need replaced.Cleaning fee was 66 well they need to change the cleaning provider, paintwork on doors flithy too and stains easily removed with deteregent but i take umbarge at having to clean at this level on a holiday break. ![Shower ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/217e8d65-c549-4cb3-8401-19d03f3210d2-1750596693665.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Shower trim](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/311ab9a4-f36a-44bc-ac89-875f7b8bd6b1-1750596693568.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Wash hand basin ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c6455653-d9b3-4163-95da-d93eee22d783-1750596694061.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Bathroom loose door handle](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ba8b9cd4-5dc8-4f6e-82e9-2edca91fe220-1750596694208.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Bernadette B. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Chris C. 3 Feb 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Decent Stay We had a decent stay in this apartment. It's spacious and well-equipped with a nice view from the balcony. Having a washing machine in the apartment was an added bonus. It's close to the Metro, several bus stops, and a train station which made getting around the city (and even visiting other cities for the day) very easy. The host was extremely friendly and accommodating, even offering the option for early check-in. He also gave us recommendations for places to eat and shop in the neighborhood as well as advice on how to reach the place in the most efficient and cost-effective way. However, the apartment itself is older and not well-maintained. There was a sewage smell in the bathrooms resulting from the recent rains. There were also insects in the kitchen. We stayed in January and only two of the rooms have heating. It was not comfortable to spend time in the living room because it was too cold. Because it is on a main thoroughfare, it was also loud with car and motorcycle noise all night. There was construction going on in the building, too. It started first thing each morning and continued all-day with hammering, sawing, and other related noise. There's not a lot happening in the neighborhood at night, so if you are looking for more nightlife maybe choose a place closer to the city center. ##### Chris C.

Het appartement was zeer minimaal ingericht met hele oude meubels. Dat was een beetje jammer. Wel goede bedden. Op één slaapkamer was geen airco. Dat was afzien. En was wel een verrijdbare ven. Maar dat was niet voldoende ##### Marguerite N.

Les villages aux alentours sont magnifiques. Le volcan est splendide et les gens sont très sympathiques. ##### Raq V. Stayed 7 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Gabrielle 9 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Logement très agréable et confortable, très propre, bien équipé, une très bonne communication avec l'hébergeur. Idéalement situé, très belle vue sur la mer. Petit point à améliorer: la douche qui n’est pas toujours facile à régler, et peut être du double vitrage au niveau des vitres car on entend beaucoup les bruits de la ville. Parfait pour une semaine pour découvrir Catane et ses alentours, avec des enfants. ##### Gabrielle Stayed 7 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Catherine D. 22 Apr 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Séjour parfait Pierluigi nous a accueillis très gentiment et efficacement. L'appartement est propre, spacieux, bien situé et bien équipé. Merci Pierluigi :) ##### Catherine D.

La casa era pulitissima e molto grande, la posizione è ottima e tutto sommato tranquilla nonostante sia in zona centrale. Molti supermercati e negozi di alimentari vicini, in 10 minuti a piedi si arriva alla Stazione Centrale. ##### Maurizio V.

Der Aufenthalt in dieser Unterkunft war sehr schön. Die Lage ist super! Alles ist so wie auf den Bildern zu sehen. Vorallem morgens das frühstücken auf einer der drei Balkone war traumhaft. Das einzige Manko ist, das es nachts sehr laut ist, da die Unterkunft in direkter Umgebung einer Hauptstraße ist. Aber das kann man mit Ohrstöpsel beheben! Besonders hervorzuheben ist der nette und unkomplizierte Kontakt zu Guiseppe. Sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit! ##### Kevin B.

Wir wollten Platz, Nähe zum Bahnhof, fußläufig zur Innenstadt untergebracht sein. Diese Ansprüche waren aller erfüllt. Wir hatten super Kontakt zum Vermieter, mussten auf Grund von Familienproblemen später anreisen, alles kein Problem. Hatten einen entspannten Aufenthalt. ##### Anne H.

Very nice welcome by Guiseppe, who speeks good English. Arriverderci e Grazie! ##### Kitty D.
