Silvia is a good host. The apartment is comfortable and clean. The bed is great to sleep in! We found the location excellent. We caught the alibus from the airport to the city centre (bus driver can advise - near Piazza Duomo) and walked to the apartment from there. It is also easy to walk to many of the attractions in Catania. Cafes and restaurants are everywhere. The excellent street markets are downstairs and gratefully don't start setting up too early either. Some Italian breakfast treats were supplied by Silvia. It is a lovely place to stay - highly recommend.
