This was a truly nice experience for a lone traveler. Would be good for couples and groups traveling together as well. The room was nice and air conditioned. Peppa made wonderful breakfasts each morning and was very helpful with whatever opportunity presented itself. And, there were a few. The main terrace where breakfast is served is located with Mount Etna in the distance as the main focal point.
The location is in a historic district of the city close to a couple large squares where live music is often performed at night, several café style restaurants with outside seating are everywhere, old catholic churches, the main drag, and the fish market.
Catania is centrally located on the East coast of Sicily. So, several charming cities, points of interest, and beaches to choose from are within an hours drive.
Parking is difficult but this inn does have a garage you can rent. Recommend traveling in a small vehicle. As parking spaces and many roads you'll travel are tiny.
Also, once you arrive make it known you have arrived by calling them as you will not know where to go to check in. You'll be right next to it and not realize the big double wooden doors are the entrance. Peppa will greet you and provide you with the details you need to use three different keys to gain entrance. So, the place is not only unique but very secure.
Overall, I enjoyed the stay and had i really nice time...Thank you for such a pleasant experience!!
