Good for adventurers who do not need help navigating a city that lacks English. This is a tidy place in walkable distance to many restaurants, cafes, shopping, and sights. However, I chose this AirBnB host specifically because Sicilians do not speak English and he had a lot of reviews from several of his properties that stated he brought them fruit, he drove them from the airport, he is so kind and helpful. We wouldn't know-- we met the guy once, briefly, at check-out and he sent us a recommendation to go eat at a fast food place with hamburgers. Maybe my American passport? We don't eat fast food anyway, but I'm pretty sure Catania is the last place I would come to just to look for a burger. His mother speaks no English and all interaction took place with her. Overall unhelpful host. Kitchen has some pots, silverware, a box of salt. There were ants. Cheaply priced, so you get what you pay for. Not bad for an economic trip!
