I had read the reviews about Maurizio's place and how helpful he is and can only agree with them. The place itself is amazing, located right in the center of Catania with the fish market just steps away. The building, built in the 17th century, has so much character. Maurizio was waiting for us, after we got in from the airport late in the evening and even walked with us to where he had the car precariously parked and accompanied us to find a safe place where we wouldn't get towed. Next week we will be going back to the apartment for a full day and a half and we are looking forward to being there.
