Finestra sulla Sicilia

The apartment was really nice, and well decorated. Only problem is it’s on the 4th floor with no lift, but we were made aware of this before arrival. Balcony has great views, and is close to the castle and centre. Only slight downside is we stayed for 7 nights, and the room is a little bit small for that length of time. Perfect for a few nights, but a little small for a week. Otherwise a great stay, host was very helpful and always got back to us in a timely manner. Would recommend to anyone who is in Catania for a few nights.

True, the B&B may be in an area that some people may call “rough”, but it isn’t that at all. Accommodation is on the 4th floor (top floor) and in the heat it’s a bit of a killer. All doors are pass code protected and are strong! I stayed in room #1, as soon as you enter. Nice sized room, although the bathroom may be a little “tight” for some people. The view from the balcony, WOW! Exactly as it is shown on the website. Sat here every evening and enjoyed some wine as the sun set! There is a kitchen in the apartment, that I think you can use, not sure. Seemed to be muffins left out for people to eat. Breakfast is simple, but very tasty, particularly the chilli and olive cheese! Loved it! Inside the room was a coffee maker and a small fridge, enough to keep your beers cold! WiFi was incredibly fast. Maybe a 10-15 min walk into the center of town, but there are a few restaurants and bars at either end of the road the B&B is located on. Good communication from Gieseppe, the owner! Would highly recommend you stay here, you won’t be disappointed

Lovely views from balcony. Was anticipating the room to be small, so it wasn’t a surprise, very reasonable price for a overnight stay in catania

The owner’s assistant was amazing. He helped us with our bags, parking, and ideas for food and shopping.

The shower was not cleaned properly and had hair in it, the water was kind of finicky in the tub. It says that the rooms are sound proof, but they are not. We barely had our tv on 5 and the people next door complained about our tv being too loud. my husband and I just talking in the room was too loud as well. We aren’t loud talkers, someone banged on our door. Wasn’t ideal for people who have jet lag and kids are making noise in the early hours and then people complain about you at night. Overall I would say it’s an ok place to stay, but not the best I have stayed at. Transportation from the air port was convenient, very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was fairly good.
