The location is great; a very quick walk to the cathedral and fish market, and close to a lot of restaurants and bars. The apartment is very comfortable, the air conditioning works well, and the kitchen appliances are all in good order. The ceilings are a little low (my 6’1” husband had to duck to get into the bathroom) but definitely not a big deal. We were also able to find parking on a quiet side street very close by. Would certainly recommend as a good home base for a trip to Catania.
