We had a great week in Catania in Vanessa's flat! She met us when we arrived and gave us a little tour. Also, she had plenty of maps, tips and other info about what to do while we were visiting. The location is very central and it's easy to walk to lots of attractions, restaurants and bars.
The flat itself was very clean and we found nearly everything we needed. The terrace was definitely the best part - a great place to relax. Of course, there are kids playing downstairs, or people sitting and chatting together, but it didn't bother us. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Catania!
