The two main benefits when you book this apartment: At first you got the best starting point for your discovery of Catania. You will stay directly at a main attraction with a lot of cultural and culinary options to choose. Travel agencies start their trips 100m away from the location. Bus stations are around and the airport is easy to reach.
Secondly and the highlight is the rooftop terrace with the beautiful view over the city you can stare at the Etna or the beautiful cathedrals, it's stunning and private to you. Of course, a rooftop means a lot of stairs but that's known and fine after a good lunch :)
The rooms are clean, practical and everything you need to start is available(the kitchen had some groceries we've replaced when used). It really felt like a second home and that's how you should thread it to have a great experience. The lightswitch concept is a bit uncommon but we didn't have any issues.
Giovanni as a host is great, careful and responsive. We had several exchanges about checkout and check-in, great communication!
I can only recommend this host, apartment and this beautiful city
