Thanks for a nice stay! The apartment was as expected and advertised and the hosts were responsive.Area is convenient in terms of proximity to main sites and overlooks an old castle and lively square- the trade off is it can be loud at night but this is not unexpected in a city center, Catania itself isn’t particularly well maintained, but the locals told us this area is safe (but not to wander too far away from the city center). The hot water tank turned itself off every day, but fortunately it heated back up quickly when reset. The owners had recommend a taxi service which was welcome, although we wouldn’t recommend it.
Thanks again for hosting us!
