Very simple space, great for a stay in Catania for those on a budget (or who would rather spend their $$$ on food and drink!) Host is super helpful, gave us great directions and then an amazing list of places to visit and places to eat and drink. We went to several and enjoyed all of them (Paranza restaurant was particularly good as was the bar on the roof of the ostello degli elefanti). One warning, if you want the window open at night, cover yourself in mosquito repellent before bed as they will get you!
