We really enjoyed our stay here. Davide and his wife were very punctual for check-in and check-out and explained everything to us very clearly despite our limited Italian. They also left us a nice bottle of wine!

The apartment was very clean and comfortable and a perfect base for exploring Catania and for day trips to Taormina and Mt. Etna. Easy walking distance to Duomo, train station, morning market, all the major sights. Neighborhood is safe and very interesting with lots of small bakeries and restaurants nearby. It was very quiet at night.

The kitchen had all the basics, and they even provided olive oil and balsamic vinegar, which was really helpful. We cooked most of our meals there with no problem, using food we bought at the morning market behind the Duomo.

The photos don't make this entirely clear, but the bedrooms and the bathroom are together on the upper level, which was very convenient. The stairs could be an issue for people with mobility problems, but most people should be OK. We definitely would stay in this apartment again, and recommend it to anyone looking for a centrally-located place in Catania.

Grazie, Davide!
