Valerio is the perfect Airbnb host! He is very friendly, open, generous, and passionate about his hometown, Catania. He went the extra mile to make our stay amazing: he gave us great recommendations for eating and swimming, arranged our trip to Etna, answered all of our random questions, and offered us shuttle services. He also fully stocked the apartment's kitchen with breakfast snacks, coffee, tea, milk, juice, olive oil, balsamico, and more. The apartment is well-located on a safe street within walking distance of everything and even has a sweet little balcony off the kitchen. The daily market is only a few minutes by foot, and is highly recommended for fresh local tomatoes, oranges, olives, artichokes, etc. It's also right off via Etna and Piazza Stesicoro, with lots of shopping and pastry/coffee shops plus direct busses to the sandy beach Playa Catania and the rocky beaches at Aci Trezza. Thank you so much for the wonderful stay in Catania, Valerio! We can't wait to visit again.
