Eva was a lovely, communicative host. The flat was clean, large and had a comfortable bed. It was kitted out pretty well, and there was even an umbrella for the rainy days! It’s really good value for money, and definitely a budget stay. Although it seems from reviews that the place is in the historical centre, it is actually quite a long walk from bars and restaurants off via etnea, and at least 30 mins walk to the bus and train station, which is a bit inconvenient if you’re planning on day trips! But this is probably our fault for not doing our research! There are also not an awful lot of streetlights in the area, and the amount of rubbish on the streets and piled up around is unreal, but that seems to be a problem in the whole of Catania… but overall a great budget option :)
