If you're looking for a nice, bright, and clean flat within walking distance of the heart of Catania, don't look any further. Giuseppe is friendly and hospitable and is ready to answer any questions you might have. He gave me clear instructions on how to reach the flat and provided me with a map of the city with all his personal highlights indicated. He also provided the kitchen and bathroom essentials (shampoo, shower cream, soap, a hair-dryer, coffee, sugar, even oil and vinegar). The historic fish market, Piazza Duomo and Castello Ursino are all very near. There isn't a supermarket in the area, but you can always shop at the open market, and there is a small corner shop just across the street. You will find a grocer's, a bakery and many pizzerias in the neighbourhood. I highly recommend both this host and his flat.
