If you're going to Catania, I highly recommend you to stay at Giovanni's place ... The apartment is a beautiful and romantic place and you'll feel like in a movie ... It's very central, but enough remote to be in peace. I only met Gio briefly, but he was very responsive to all my e-mails and questions, and the apartment was in a very good conditions, as I usually expect it to be. In a historical building of Catania, you will enjoy the tradition of the place and feel to have breakfast on the incredible little terrace, really magic.
