Lisa was very easy to communicate over whatsapp, and has perfect mother-tongue english. She lives in the apartment with her boyfriend who's italian, so you definitely get both the local experience and the easy communication as well as different views. The apartment is really nice and well located. Lisa was very flexible to let my friend take a shower as he had to catch a late flight the night of the checkin and leave back home from Catania. The room offered is upstairs, on a second level of the apartment. It has no door, which was fine for me as I was solo traveler and didnt spend too much time in the apartment. Had a comfy double bed and lots of space. There is even a small balcony with two chairs and a table that i didnt use... The apartment is few minutes walk to the Carlo Alberto market and the Filomena restaurant street. We found parking for the car one block away in blue lines, which cost around 1.50 euro per hour, and after 8pm is free.
