Good location

We were a bit disappointed with this B&B. We booked it as the reviews were above average. However, we feel that is a bit overrated. The location is great. 20 minutes from train station and from the historic centre. The price is great for the accommodation. The room was big enough for two people and was clean enough. The Internet connection was almost non existent, very slow. The bathroom has seen bether days.

Overnight in Catania, Sicily

A minor problem occurred with the electricity, but the owner, who speaks perfect English, came by and took care of everything. He even offered to put us up in another hotel at no additional cost. The breakfast was pretty much standard, but was okay. I would recommend this hotel who enjoy the bustle of an active city. We love Catania and would like to visit Sicily again.

Nice hotel near the Giardino Bellini

It is a nice hotel near the main street via Etnea and wonderful Bellini`s garden. A fair balance of price and facilities. Main disadvantage is that there is no person on duty on reception. So it is better to phone and inform administration, when you will arrive. Other wise you can wait for somebody arrive and give you key in front of the doors.

two nights in Catania

The room was very very beautiful. The check-in has been entertaining but at the same time disastrous. There was no name on the bell downstairs and you had to have a phone and charged to have the access to the room. No staff has been on site for two days. The owner kept on exchangeing very vague textes on whatsup and waited until the check out to explain the payment procedures which was very annoying because during the whole stay I had to wonder and ask when and how to settle the payment of the room, wasting my time during the staying. The location is fantastic in a great area.

Nice vacation? Don’t go here

The owner is very sweet and try’s to make your stay as nice as possible. The bed is sooo hard that we didn’t sleep very much. We didn’t have a remote for the tv and in the 7 days we where ther we didn’t have any WiFi in 4 days. The toilet was broken. Where are no breakfast or bottled water as the website said.

Piacevole soggiorno in centro a Catania

Camera pulita giornalmente e dotata di aria condizionata, silenziosa, situata in centro a Catania. Autonomia per entrata e uscita dal B&B. Unica pecca: l'appartamento è situato al secondo piano di uno stabile senza ascensore, quindi lo spostamento di oggetti pesanti (es. valigie) o ingombranti (es. passeggini) è difficoltoso.

Seulement bien situé

Ce B&B est bien situé au centre de Catane, proche de l'avenue principale. L'accueil est pour le moindre inexistant, pas de relation humaine. L'état général peut paraître satisfaisant mais la propreté reste à désirer tout comme le confort de la literie. Sans oublier que les fenêtres donnent uniquement sur la cage d'escalier, pas de possibilité d'aération et remonté des bruits et de tabac.

Sublieme ontvangst

Al bij vertrek richting Catania legt de eigenaar van de B&B contact om te vragen hoe laat we aankomen. Hij adviseert ons over de transfer van luchthaven naar de B&B en zorgt ervoor dat we prettig worden opgevangen. Het verblijf in de B&B is prettig. Schone kamers en een, voor Italiaanse begrippen, goed verzorgd ontbijt. Verwacht hier uitgebreid Europees ontbijt. Dat kennen ze in Italie niet.
De eigenaar is ook tijdens de terugreis uiterst behulpzaam en doet zijn uiterste best om ervoor te zorgen dat onze terugreis probleemloos verloopt. Dit geeft een ontzettend welkom en warm gevoel. Geweldig.

Camere spaziose

L'hotel è situato a poca distanza dalla via principale piena di negozi. è all'interno di un palazzo ed essendo una piccola struttura non ha una reception, per questo le comunicazioni sono un po' difficili.
Le camere sono molto grandi e pulite, offrono una colazione fai da te con tutto il necessario a disposizione.
L'unica pecca è che non è stato possibile lasciare le valigie in custodia per il nostro ultimo giorno.

Buen lugar para hospedarse

Tiene una excelente ubicación, la habitación que nos dieron estuvo bien con baño dentro de la misma, muy limpio, el desayuno continental abundante, la atención de primera tanto del dueño como de Pal que es el joven de la limpieza muy al pendiente de lo que se nos ofreciera, lo único que recomiendo es que al llegar en la zona de timbres esta el celular del dueño para que le hablen ya que por la tarde no hay nadie en el hospedaje y si llegan de noche como fue nuestro caso, la entrada es muy obscura y da temor entrar ya que al tocar el tmbre solamente abre la puerta de la calle y cualquier persona puede entrar, del lado derecho al abrir la puerta hay un apagado que prende tanto la entrada como la escalera, del aeropuerto tomar el autobús y bajarse en la segunda parada de Ednea. Somos personas de más de 60 años y nos agradó.

L'hôtel est pittoresque et agréable, l'aménagement et le petit déjeuner très agréable. Il est à proximité de la meilleure pâtisserie de Catane et d'une des rues les plus belle et vivante. Seul bémol, il peut y avoir des clients peu délicats et bruyants oubliant qu'ils ne sont pas seuls dans cette petite résidence typique. Très belle impression, à refaire en ce qui nous concerne.
