It was truly good fortune we decided to stay at Giuseppe's apartment. The entrance is off a main thoroughfare so access is easy and the living area balcony overlooks a promenade at the end of which is the Bellini Theatre and plaza making it easy to find your way back home. There were at least a dozen restaurants within 50 meters and all with great staff and food. The apartment was clean, the bed wonderful -- we slept very well each night-- all amenities worked including the washing machine and while there was some late night foot traffic on the promenade Friday and Saturday nights, the noise levels were low. We never lost any sleep. We think the cost of staying there was very reasonable -- lower than the value of what we received. On our next trip to Catania, we'll stay at Giuseppe's again but it'll be for two or three weeks instead of five nights.
