We came to Catania for a 9days/8 nights and stood on Simona's premises only 4 of them because: PROS: fast communication with us, some cookies and beverages were waiting for us, easy access to the buses to other cities and beach, 5 minute walk from the center. CONS: noisy neighbourhood, noisy water pump, shower drainage did not work properly and you could take a shower only for 3 minutes before taking a break and allow water to drain, no toilet seat, air ventilator from bathroom kept falling down off its place.
