Antonio's place is in a good location, 15 mins walk from the town entre, central railway station and bus station. There are supermarkets and plently of good restaurants and bars nearby and a great twice-weekly farmers market just round the corner. The bar at the bottom of the building is very friendly and welcoming and has a much faster internet connection than in the apartment. There is some traffic noise from the road outside but we got used to it after a couple of days. Antonio was very helpful, gave us all the information we needed and responded promptly to any issues that arose. Catania is a great place to visit. The local people are very friendly and welcoming and there is a wide variety of high quality and good value food and a really vibrant night life, particularly in the area around the castle. You can travel around safely and cheaply on public transport and there are great places to visit such as Mount Etna, Taormina, Aci Trezza, Siracusa, Agrigento and Ragusa. If you want to go further afield you can hire a car from a local rental company at good rates and head for Ragusa, Palermo, Trapani etc. If the beach is your thing there are plenty nearby. There is so much to see and do in Sicily and something for everyone so don't hesitate, book Antonio's place today!
