Leo was a terrific host. Very welcoming and helpful with all requests. He speaks excellent English, and his communication was great.
The apartment appears to have only recently been renovated and was beautifully clean. The kitchen was well equipped and the air con worked a treat, which was a godsend given that it was quite hot in Catania when we stayed.
There are some lovely views from the apartment too. Obviously, to have good views you have to go up a few floors, and it was quite a climb to reach the apartment. However, it’s worth noting that as part of the broader building refurbishment a lift has been installed, but had yet to be brought into operation at the time of our visit.
The only area for improvement would be the decking and furniture on the terrace, which were both in need of replacement. Given that the renovations to the inside of the apartment looked recently completed, I suspect updates to the terrace were imminent.
Overall, a very nice place to stay!
