The flat is great if you want to feel a real Italian apartment vibe - it has high ceilings with frescs and traditional tiles on the floor. In my opinion it looks better than the pictures suggest. It’s spacious and the kitchen is well equipped. There’s a washing machine and lots of storage space. I loved the neighbourhood as it’s not touristy but a place for the locals. It’s so much fun walking the streets and watching Italian everyday life. Nearby is a nice bakery and well-equipped supermarket. Vis a vis the flat is a lovely cafeteria D’Alessandro with tasty arancino or granita and friendly waiters greeting you in Italian. From the flat you can take a 15 minutes walk to Villa Bellini and have the best canollo in Savia. I would definitely visit Catania again and stay at Isabella’s.
