The apartment was clean, well maintained and elegantly decorated. It is perfectly situated near some very nice restaurants and located at the heart some of the nightlife of Catania. However, due to being somewhat outside the nightlife area itself and the well isolated house you will not notice any of the street noise. The small balconies at the front of the house are nice if you just want to have a beverage while enjoying the sun or evening. We really enjoyed our stay in the apartment and would definitely recommend it.
