    Issues with facilities in room not working e.g.tv, lights, fridge. Difficult to check-in as outer door locked, i can't do online check-in as the notice outside told me i should, and staff couldn't speak English.

    Hotel very good value for the money. Staff very helpful and friendly, even though none of them could speak more than a few words of English and i don't speak Italian.

    Despite all the bad things I did not like , according to the price i paid and it location I would come back,but... Taking as European standards, it should not be named as Hotel and is far away a 3 stars Hotel, but if you take this in consideration like we did before going then is good. Breakfast was include in the price, it is ok in order to take some coffee or eat some orange, mandarine, apple or banana which they have, but is far away to be good breakfast when you see such amazing food they have in Italy and Catania: for breakfast they have slice 🍞 bread, boiled ham , slice cheese , cheap salami, butter, croissant, and couple of other cakes, couple of cereals and some hot chocolate if you want, if you like those things is ok but for Italian food standard the quality of products is very bad, which was ok because i saw in the photo ,they are not lying. Catania city out of the city center street like via etnea is very dirty, the street of the hotel to direction to the station is no easy to walk in pavement as is narrow and they are passing cars and so on. The street behind the hotel if you want to go to Lidl better go in the day, as the 400 metres street to go there are small streets corridors very dirty with ruins blocks and are street with prostitutes and strange people. The street to go to station and to the center is ok, light and with people.

    The location is very good, around 7-10 min from the train station ( 700 metres) , and easy to find , all the street straight where you will see the sea ( not the beach) and a bit to the left and there is the station. 5 minutes by walk from the via etnea street or Duomo square . 7 minutes walk from Piazza Dell Borselino where you can take the Alibus ( bus to the airport from there is 10-15min) dont take the bus in Republica or in the station because it make whole round in the city. From Piazza dell Borselino you can take the public bus as well to go to the Catania beach (1eur) The room is clean, hotel as well , they were cleaning everyday our room they were asking when we were leaving in order to clean the room. Lidl or Eurospin 300 metres from hotel. We book the family room which consist in a split level room, you enter the room, in the right there is the private toilet, in the room there is a double bed and a small balcony( only to stand not to sit for a drink or something like that), and little stairs inside the room and up 3 single beds. People in reception were very nice, room and reception is in 1st , 2nd floor of building and you can leave your luggage there after check out of hitel

    Apartment located at 2nd floor, reception at 3rd, with no lift, nor accessibility for disabled people. Poor and unusable WLAN signal, with exception for main entrance. Breakfast with average quality, not offering the amazing quality and variety of Sicilian food.

    Nice independent apartment in via Sangiuliano, 300m from via Etnea, the main pedestrian street in Catania city centre.

    There is no private parking - we had to park on the street (paid parking - 1 euro per night & 2.90 euro per half day). The room was rather small for 5 people. The bathroom was OK.

    The hotel is very centrally located - 5 to 7 minutes walk from the Piazza Duomo. The breakfast is OK - not super, but good enough. The room was clean. The receptionist was speaking very good English and was very helpful.

    The bed about killed me. Hard, difficult for older persons to get out of. Too low to the ground, sideboards were hard to maneuver around. Kept waking up to sore hips. No soap holder in the shower, the toilet flush button cover flew off a few times. Difficult to park.

    The staff were super, the coffee super the breakfast was ok. The location was perfect, the hotel was clean. It had AC if we had needed it, I love the small balcony and the high ceilings (spectacular artwork). A very welcoming feeling!

    The WiFi at our room wasn't very good.

    The hotel was near the main road, Via Etna. The most visitable places were very close. The room was very nice and comfortable. The food was also good. The staff was very polite and helping. Before our arrival, they sent an email with a detailed staff as a map of their location and how can be reached by bus.

    Well located for the historic area with a few minutes walk and a simple 20 minute walk to the main train and bus stations. The hotel is one floor of a building with associated apartments on other floors. The room was large and well furnished, and the whole place kept clean - memories of school swimming pools when popped back mid-morning and they were mopping the corridors ! The breakfast was good, with a wide range of items, the breakfast room having a vaulted and frescoed ceiling. The staff were helpful in finding out about bus journeys, having patience even though we had to communicate mostly via google translationion. There is an excellent family run taverna just a few minutes walk away - right out of the hotel, first right, first restaurant on the right.

    The room was split into 2 parts, seating area and sleeping area. Stairs to sleeping area were very steep and narrow The room was very noisy from loud music all night outside the hotel. We stayed here before though and the music was not there, so maybe this room or bad timing

    Our room looked out onto a wall but we weren't there long enough for it to make it an issue. Steep stairs in the room. Could only make coffee would have been nice to make a cuppa tea.

    thin walls, no sound proofing, neighbourhoods street is just a disgusting, we had to change the room due to the consecutively noises coming out from outside.

    location, staff, cleanliness and the small breakfast quite in the center, all the sightseeings were nearby and the staff was very friendly. breakfasts was ok and the lady at the breakfast was very friendly and helped us to change the room. if you are on budget then this hotel is good. Rooms were pretty clean.
