Mi spiace dare una valutazione negativa, ma un b&b al centro di catania, non può consegnare una camera polverosa, non igienizzata, con la doccia non funzionante e con il doccino con perdite. Oltre ad avere la porta di ingresso non perfettamente funzionante e le prese elettriche non i fili sfoderati. Dopo la nostra lamentela, hanno provveduto alla sostituzione della camera, con una più pulita e con la doccia funzionante. Non abbiamo usufruito di nessun servizio di colazione inclusa, come invece specificato al momento della prenotazione! Le uniche note positive, la centralità della struttura e la gentilezza dello staff!

Wspaniała lokalizacja z widokiem na Etnę. Mieszkanie w kamienicy z bardzo wysokim sufitem. Cisza i spokój w nocy. Wspaniałe śniadania w lokalu obok hotelu.

Nie dało rady połączyć się internetem.

"Posizione ottima, ma il cambio di struttura non comunicato e la qualità della camera ricevuta hanno reso l’esperienza in"

2.0

La posizione è davvero ottima: tutto a portata di mano, tra locali, negozi e servizi. Comodissima per muoversi a piedi su via Etnea.

Avevo prenotato una camera del B&B Alba, che si trova ai piani superiori, con ambienti spaziosi e curati come mostrato nelle foto. Al mio arrivo sono stata spostata nell’hotel della stessa proprietà, Sofia Hotel, al piano inferiore, presentato come un “upgrade”, ma la camera non corrispondeva affatto a quella prenotata. Arredi datati, atmosfera poco accogliente, decadente, coperte con macchie visibili e un odore sgradevole proveniente dal bagno, che mostrava anche segni di usura e manutenzione incompleta. Inoltre l’insonorizzazione era scarsa: si sentivano chiaramente le porte delle altre stanze aprirsi e chiudersi, e la nostra porta vibrava a ogni passaggio. Avrei gradito essere avvisata del cambio di struttura e poter scegliere se accettarlo o meno.

Purtroppo la posizione così centrale penalizza la valutazione, perchè c’é molto rumore. Anche sul bagno si potrebbe migliorare.
