Santo was a good host, as he helped us find the best transportation route to the listing, understand if the tour we were going on was good value, provided recommendations for what we could do, and where we could eat in the city. The kitchen was well-stocked, and the place was clean.
When we were there, Catania was very hot even in late October / early November, and we ran into issues with the air conditioning. It is controlled by the host on a periodic timer system, but it was inconsistent and left us with periods of very warm temperatures in the apartment. We spoke with Santo about this after we realized how hot it was the first night, and he accommodated for overnight temperatures but this resulted in warmer periods during the day.
