During our stay in Sicilia this was out of the question the best place we stayed at. The house was clean, nice, airconditioned and everything you can expect from it. The location was really good, it took us 5 to 10 mins of walking to get to the center of the city with all the good spots. But, the thing that really stood out was the amazing hospitality form our host. When we arrived he greeted us in person and showed us the room. And next to that he had a little map with all the hot spots around town. He told us everything we needed to know (and his English was REALLY GOOD, which was a very pleasant suprise). We made great use of their tips and it made our stay so much better. Also during our stay we could ask him anything, he fixed a very cheap taxi for us and on the day we were leaving he let us store our bags for pretty much the entire day even though the check out was 10 AM.
This is most definitely one to try when you are in Catania!
A really wonderful stay thank you again for everything Silvio and Maria!
