Downtown Catania can be a little loud, but there is a back bedroom which is quiet. The convenience and easy access to restaurants, tourist sites, and supermarkets is great. Parking can be a bit of a challenge on busy weekends, but you don't need a car at all if you either stay in Catania (lots to see) or utilize public transport. Also there are tons of available tours that you can easily catch if you want to see Mt. Etna, Siracusa, Noto, Agrigento, Taormina, and on and on. Sicily is fantastic and Giuseppe is a great host.
