My girlfriend and I have spent a few days in Maria Grazia's apartment and we had a great time there. As we arrived by bus from Siracusa, Maria Grazia and her boyfriend joined us at the bus station (5 minutes from the flat) and gently helped us to carry our luggage. Then we had a wonderful discussion about Catania and they both gave us a lot of advice about the city and the region. Their advice was very useful and thanks to them we found the right places to visit and great restaurants to eat at. The apartment in itself is perfect : very clean and very quiet, and the building is ideally situated in the city, as it is in a quiet neighbourhood but 5/10 minutes from the heart of the city by foot. In my opinion, it is really the perfect place to stay in Catania !
