The apartment is great, one-to-one to the pictures.

It is located in quite south center part of Catania. The fish market with great choice is few minutes walk from house. Many good pizza places, cafes, restaurants and small grocery stores are near by. The sand beach is about half-an-hour walk (you need to know how to get there easily by foot), but it is better to take a bus and get to further beach (20 minutes bus drive). The airport is also pretty close.

Apartment has an excellent kitchen with all needed supplies, bathroom with bath tube, really lovely furniture, a nice terrace.

The WiFi coverage is pretty low. You need to get to terrace to get some signal. I think it is a good idea to move router closer to apartment. There is a WiFi range extender in apartment, but it has problem to catch a signal too. Anyway, if you need internet, you get it in terrace.

Giada was out in Rome for this time, but she was always available on a phone and have her sister and friend Enrico helping with all the questions. They are very nice and helpful people.

We had a great time in Sicily, took a car for few days to drive around, had a great quiet and calm vacation in Giada's loft, have eaten a lot of great seafood and meat.

I can recommend anybody who wants to spend vacation in Catania to stay in Giada's place.
