Enrico is a very responsive host, a good communicator. He helped us figure out some confusing things at the beginning. The apartment is well located within walking distance of many attractions, though it is a noisy area of the city and driving into and out of center city Catania is a stressful experience. This was a good location to see the city itself, but not a good one to make day trips outside the city using a rental car. The apartment itself was clean and well-appointed. The beds were nice. The kitchen had everything necessary. The bathroom was nice, but the shower water never got hot enough, especially since the apartment was usually cold (it was December). There is free parking underneath/behind the building, but access to it was blocked when we arrived. There are men in the piazza who informally control parking spaces and ask for money , essentially extorting money to park in places they don’t own, but I paid a guy 5 Euros because I was concerned if I didn’t he would harm my car when I was not there. However, it stayed safely parked in that spot in the piazza for 2 nights, so it was a bad outcome. In sum, this is a nice apartment for a good value hosted by a good host, but it had some drawbacks.
