Great stay in Catenia

Centrally located inn in Catenia. We enjoyed our four night stay. Room was facing a street but was very quiet at night.. Inn keeper was very helpful with a tour of Mt Etna. When we reserved the room it stated it included breakfast but that was not the case. I guess they do not do that anymore.

This property is in in the middle of the old town of Catania and is very accessible to venues in this location. It is located within walking distance to everything in the old town. Although the apartment itself was very good and clean, the downtown area itself could use a good cleaning as it is filled with cigarette butts and trash in the streets.

We had a very nice stay at Catania Inn. The room (the orange in our case) is spacious with a table, 4 chairs, a tv, a little fridge, AC, a private bathroom and a little balcony. Everything was extremely clean, and the room is made every room two days (cleaning, changing of towels and linen). The inn is very centrally located, it is close to everything. Outside it's lively, there's a lot of restaurants, bars, shops, pharmacy,... The staff Marco, Eva and Roberto are very nice always smiling and willing to help you with everything you may need. And allowed us to let our luggage since we were living late at night. Marco gave us very good advice about what city to visit around Catania (we especially liked Syracusa) and some places where to eat. They also give us tickets for free entrance at the afrobar at the beach.

Sehr zentral gelegene Unterkunft. Der Grossteil der SehenswĂŒrdigkeiten kann zu Fuss erreicht werden. Saubere Zimmer dir alle 2 Tage gereinigt werden. Wir haben eine City-map mit Beschreibung der SehenswĂŒrdigkeiten und Tipps fĂŒr Restaurants bekommen. Die Preisen darin waren nicht mehr ganz aktuell, hat uns aber trotzdem gute Dienste geleistet. Marco an der Rezepion war sehr hilfsbereit und hat uns bei der DurchfĂŒhrung unser PlĂ€ne unterstĂŒtzt (Etna-Tour, Busverbindungen nacht Siracusa, Taxi-Transfer zum Flughafen etc.) Herzlichen Dank!

O local fica praticamente dentro do centro histórico muito próximo das principais atraçÔes - é possível visitar a maioria a pé. O hotel é um prédio antigo reformado - a rua da entrada é um pouco feia mas dentro das instalaçÔes e tudo perfeito. O atendimento é excelente.
