Daniele was a great host, on arrival he explained the apartment and things to do and sights to see and recommendations on eating out. The apartment is centrally located in the heart of the old town, the rooms are huge and spotlessly clean (and the shower is very hot and powerful) and there is a balcony off the main bderrom and bathroom, but the best part is the huge roof terrace with its spectacular views across the city, perfect for daytime sunbathing and eating al fresco in the evening.
A few minutes walk away is the amazing fish market and all the picture postcard baroque churches, cathederal, castle, gardens, piazzas etc.
Loads to do in Catania and some great restaurants, we would also recommend a day trip by bus to the unbelieveably pretty Taormina.
The bus from the airport stops nearby and is only 1 euro!
We would highly recommend this apartment and Daniele as a host.
