Francesco's place was very central, easy access to the bus station and the buzzing town centre. The bed was incredibly comfy, and the small space was utilised really well and the balcony was pleasant. The surrounding area, like mentioned in previous reviews, was a little shabby but this is a small price to pay for having the apartment in such a great location and value for money. I would definitely recommend Francesco's place as a great stop off place to visit Catania as well as the surrounding towns. Gracie!
