This place does what it says on the tin! I can understand why the reviews say that the location is slightly sketchy due to the street it is based on but we never felt unsafe. It definitely is not the right place for light sleepers as you can hear the road noise, next door noise and our intercom was ringing at 3am for some unknown reason (it was a Saturday night after all!). However for us, this place was great. We are a young couple and we could walk to everywhere we wanted to very easy. We did half a day in Catania exploring ourselves and an excursion to Mount Etna. The place is not suitable to those with mobility issues as 3 flights of stairs to get up to the entrance and also stairs up to the bed. This air Bnb is fairly simple but great value for money. Thank you for having us Francesco! (He responds very quick to messages)
