Lovely staff, very helpful. Breakfast was little but great to keep you going for the next meal of the day. Felt safe as a solo traveller and about a 5min drive to catania airport. Would stay again :)

The staff was extremely helpful and I felt safe at this location. It is very close to the airport. The one thing I would say is the property is in an industrial area. However, the staff was there to take me and pick me up from the main areas.

property itself was good and room was well maintained. main reason for the 3 star rating is the location. although it was only five min from the airport but there was negligible public transportation specially on a sunday. closest stop was in a parking lot which required 8-10 min walk through a main road with no sidewalk etc. night time area looked quite shady. no places to eat nearby. i would suggest only using it if you had a rental car or for a night in case you have an early flight to catch. our hosts were nice and arranged a transportation for 10 euro per person. on site parking was included as well.
