The location of this property is perfect. Right in the middle of everything and a short walk from a multitude of restaurants, cultural sites, and and the fish and vegetable/fruit market which is so interesting. But because it is in the middle of everything, it can be quite noisy at night since there is a bar right below the unit. The back bedroom is quieter than the front one. The check in process is really easy. Although the unit is on the first floor, it is about 24 steps up from the ground floor. The hosts were very helpful in terms of restaurant recommendations and advice on the best way to get a taxi. I loved my stay in Catania and my accommodations were a big part of that.
