Valeria and Loredana were really super sweet and had great ideas/recommendations.
The room and the whole apartment was clean and quiet.
I really had a good time!
Only thing I would have liked to know about beforehand was the large construction site in the courtyard.
Small idea: I would offer free coffee/tea in the room.

We enjoyed exploring Catania and this property is in the heart of the city. The host was great. The only thing I would say would be the external property is in the middle of a building site. As soon as you enter the building you are met with this before you get upstairs. The bed and breakfast itself is very nice but we opened the window and all you could see is the building site in the middle of the property which we didn’t know about before booking. Overall the host and the b&b were excellent though.

Loredana was a lovely host and made us feel welcome on a short stay to Catania.
The area immediately around is generally okay, and has some dirty streets nearby, but don’t let it put you off because Catania has some excellent places to discover.

Accommodation was excellent and staff worked to help
Access through 4 locked and/or coded doors was a nightmare until siesta time had passed and another visitor helped us

the staff was very welcoming, and helpful with our questions about getting around the city. we had a few minor problems with the air conditioner and toilet and they were fixed promptly and we had no further issues. The owner was able to get us transportation to the airport at half the cost of our ride in. The driver they arranged was prompt and took good care of us. Again the staff was excellent

Did not have anyone to check us in despite arriving before 7. The locked gates and elevator required some explanation so we were left to our own devices to figure all that out.

Nice rooms but complicated set up & zero service
This stay would have been so much better if we had been informed ahead of time that there would be a construction site (we almost just left), then 3 flights of stairs and zero help or service. It’s a completely do it yourself B&B which is difficult to get into and almost impossible if you have any luggage. There is a tiny lift but instructions were complicated and my bag didn’t fit in it anyway so I had to leave most of my things in the car as it was too heavy for so many stairs. I was travelling with two older people and a young child and it was very difficult for us and no one to help you check in or assist with bags or help in general. Staff at breakfast were very nice each day with zero English. Rooms very very comfortable but very hot. I think if management would have just prepared us better what to expect in terms we would have had a much better experience. I spent a lot of time answering questions from other guests who had also had a difficult time getting and managing self check in and the stairs etc.

Die Unterkunft war ok. Das Frühstück für 8€ mehr als gut! Die Inhaberin und Ihre Mitarbeiter sehr nett und zuvorkommend.
Allerdings wird im Angebot verschwiegen, dass das Haus sehr heruntergekommen ist und aufgrund von behördlichen Vorgaben seit 8 Javren nichts passiert. Es ist ein Baustelle. Ein sehr schönes Haus, dass allmählich zerfällt. Im B&B ist es sauber. Die kleine Terrasse könnte liebevoller gestaltet werden. Es war ok, ich würde mir allerdings fürs nächste Mal was anderes suchen. Das Bild der Aussenfront entspricht nicht der Realität. Wenn man sich dessen bewusst ist, kann man den Kurztrip dort buchen.

Am Vorabend unserer Anreise wurde uns per Mail mitgeteilt, dass im Eingangsbereich ein hässliches Gerüst steht und der gesamte Bereich sehr schmutzig ist. Zu diesem Zeitpunkt war eine Stornierung nicht mehr möglich. Ich hätte diese Unterkunft niemals gebucht, wenn ich das im Vorfeld gewusst hätte. Die Zimmer und das Badezimmer waren sehr klein. Geschickt aufgenommen sahen diese auf den Fotos wesentlich größer aus. Checkout war um 10.30 Uhr und es war nicht möglich zumindest das Gepäck in der Unterkunft zu deponieren bis zur Abholung zum Flughafen. Die Inkeeperin war freundlich und hilfsbereit und das Frühstück gut.
