Matilde's place is very clean and conveniently located close to the Fish Market and Piazza del Duomo, and on another direction to Piazza Borsellino, where you can take the bus to visit Catania or to go to the railway station. Attention, for some destinations on the island you have to take the bus from Statione Centrale (in front of the railway station) or from the airport. Or you can take the train; fast and confortable.
Matilde and Maria responded fast to our messages and they also offered helpful advice regarding the places to visit in Catania, the best places to eat and even helped us to get to the airport.
We've had a greattime here.
Be advised that in february it gets cold at night and you have to take some warm pajamas with you, as the A/C works, but it doesn't warm up too much. You can also use the electric heater from the condo.
In order to get to the entrance of the condo you have to climb some stairs. For us it was the morning exercise.
