A fantastic experience. Tania was so friendly and welcoming - she really makes you feel like you are home when arriving at the apartment and checking out. The apartment itself is in a perfect location. It is central enough to have everything within 5-10 minutes of walking but also in an area of the city that most tourists will not go to, which means that you really feel like you're part of the local neighborhood. The road outside the apartment can be a little busy in the mornings, but that is just part of being in such a central location and very typical for an Italian city like Catania. It was never loud enough to wake me up, so there is no need to worry.
The bed is comfortable, and there is plenty of coffee which is greatly appreciated. Tania even left a typical Sicilian sweet and a liter of water in the refrigerator. Catania is so beautiful and I do not think three days was enough to see everything it has to offer.
When I return, I'll be checking to see if Tania's is available!
