My husband and I were in Catania on business for two months in the early spring and stayed in this delightful apartment. It is exactly as advertised. All the utilities worked perfectly. It was a chilly time of year but that was not a problem. The heat was excellent and there was plenty of hot water with really strong water pressure. There is a modern kitchen which is stocked with everything needed to cook even the most ambitious dinners. The apartment is located in the village of San Gregorio di Catania and has easy access to the main highway. There is a nice grocery store just blocks away and one of the best fruit/vegetable markets in the area. There are several very nice restaurants within walking distance, as well. We were intially concerned about parking our car on the street but there was never a problem of any kind. The apartment has a beautiful view of Mt Etna - I really looked forward to hanging out my laundry each morning! We will miss our runs through the hills with the stunning views of the Ionian Sea and a snow-capped Mt Etna. Whether you are in the Catania area on business or holiday, you really can't go wrong with this apartment.
