Giulio's apartment is exactly as described and pictured. Perfect for solo travelers, its central location makes it extremely convenient for anyone wanting to visit Catania and all it has to offer. Close to shopping, dining, and all forms of public transport (it is just off Via Etnea, a two-minute walk to the Piazza Duomo), it is ideal for someone wanting to be in the middle of it all. A note about the apartment you should definitely be aware of: it occupies two floors with the entry/kitchen/dining area on the 3rd floor of the building (for Americans, 2nd floor for Europeans), with the bed/bath area occupying a converted attic space above that. The stairs can be a challenge for anyone with mobility issues--or just getting on in years. That being said, I'm 62 with two bad knees and still managed just fine with several trips up & down daily.
