Super nice staff. Decoration was absolutely amazing. Shower could me more, but altough a super nice stay

Lebritny Netherlands

It was interesting to see how wealthy Sicilian families lived i Catania. The house itself looks like a living museum: old paintings, antiques and ceiling decor. All belongs to one family. The owner met us himself and gave a small tour around the house - it was plesently unexpected!

Zhanna Netherlands

Very nice and helpful owner who first has shown us and told us about the house. Spacious room with a small balcony and old fashioned decorations - we felt as we were in 17th or 18th century :) My parents loved the place.

Beata Poland

The unique style of rooms, breakfast, location, contact with the very informative owner... Everything! Highly recommended!

Simona Poland

Beautiful rooms, very nice person, tasty breakfast. You can't find better place for this price.

Michał United Kingdom

Beautifully decorated room with ample breakfast . Ludovico was very helpful and helped us with printing our boarding passes and ensuring we were looked after even though we had to leave early before breakfast to catch a plane

Joy Australia

Chic atmosphere and chic attitude) This is my second time here and was glad to show this apartment to my friends. We spent 5 days here. Thank you so much, Patricia, for breakfast with coffee and croissants with pistachio cream! They will dream us. Thank you so much, Louis, for your attention and help at any moment. And also for your elegant taste. We were happy to feel like queens! I also recommend this apartment to anyone who wants to take photos in delightful interiors. We got very atmospheric images, but at the same time felt at home. We are happy to take a piece of Sicily in our hearts thanks to this fantastic apartment and nice people. Thank You!
