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.

Great place to stay at a great price
Great price, great location. Clean B&B with 24 hour access to breakfast room, including drinks, water and snacks. Within 10 mins walk to tourist area and lots of restaurants and shops nearby. 3 mins walk to Villa Bellini park.

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.

B&b vicinissimo al centro di Catania. Struttura un po' vecchia. Stanza discretamente arredata ma la pecca è la pulizia della camera: pareti pieni di insetti morti e piumoncino un po' sporco. Personale gentilissimo.

La stanza originaria era una veranda sul terrazzo, con porte a vetri. La seconda di poco migliore.

De locatie was super. Voor de rest heel gehorig. Douche was heerlijk maar je kon er niet lang onder staan anders veroorzaak je een overstroming
