    Close to the intercity bus terminal and Elephant Square.”

    The location of the accommodation was especially good, and the scenery inside the accommodation was also beautiful. It’s nice to look down at the street from the terrace. The reception staff were friendly in their customer service and informed us about the main attractions, which was great. However, when you first arrive, the location of the accommodation within the complex can be ambiguous, so it’s more convenient to ask for the exact location through a WhatsApp call.

    Stayed for 2 nights”

    Staff is helpful, place is near attractions and walkable distance - abt 5/6 mins walk. View from room is great as well! Has an elevator, though place is quite old, room is properly maintained and clean.

    Reasonably good from my experience”

    I spent two nights at this property. The location was just about two hundred meters from the tourist attractions. There were also many places to eat and drinks just around the corner. The room size was reasonable and clean. I booked a double bed and was provided with one. The French window in my room opened to a main street with a good view of Catania city. A private bathroom was also provided to me, but it was not en suite. The bathroom doesn’t have any ventilation, and it smells like sewerage. I usually get up to pee during the night. I was unhappy that I had to do that with a foul smell at night and while I had a shower. Breakfast was packaged with the booking, but I had to walk about 200 meters to have breakfast provided by a café outside. It was kinda good and bad. It was good to have breakfast outside the accommodation, but I liked having breakfast inside when I just got up. In addition to that, only one coffee and bread/pastry were provided. If you want anything else, you pay for it yourself. The staff there were friendly and hospitable. I got to meet the owner when I checked out. He said he came to Australia long ago and hired a van to drive around when he was younger, and he liked Australia. Overall: The main point that I don’t like about this place was the toilet/shower room. I would recommend this place but ensure you have an ensuite bathroom. And if you don’t care about having to walk to get breakfast.

    Not what is advertised ”

    The standard room is not the size advertised. There is hidden tax and not mentioned anywhere. The checkin closes at 8 pm even though it says midnight in the description. We had to wait by the closed door for a very long time arriving at 8pm. Someone was using our supposedly “private” bathroom for a long time when we arrived so we could not even shower on our arrival night. The building is extremely outdated. The room is truly horrible compared to average cheap hotels in former Soviet Union we visited just before, I could not believe we are in the EU in 2023.
