Giuseppe's flat is spacious, beautifully furnished and very convenient to seeing all of the main tourist attractions in Catania! The bedrooms are large and comfortable and it is great to be able to step out on the small terraces that overlook Piazza San Francesco and Piazza Giuseppe Mazzini. The host provided clear and helpful communication and met us upon our arrival in Catania and was more than willing to provide information throughout our stay.
Notes
1) Due to the proximity to lots of bars, restaurants and sites the apartment can be noisy at night (a trade-off for being so centrally located) so if you are a light sleeper it would make sense to bring earplugs.
2) The building elevator was not in service during our stay so there are a number of steps to navigate as the apt is on the second floor. (The stairway is large and there are landing, but the apt may not be the best for those with difficulty climbing stairs or with heavy baggage).
3) There is a coffee machine, but unlike some AirBnBs there were no coffee pods to use in the machine, however there are numberous cafes in the neighborhood. But if you want to have coffee in the apt you'll just need to buy/bring some.
4) Wifi works best in the bedroom to the right when you enter the apt. In the kitchen it is a bit spotty.
