"Dimora storica in centro città"

10.0

Dimora nel pieno centro storico di Catania, vicino ai principali monumenti ed alla bellissima via Etnea. La casa è una vera chicca, arredata con gusto e dotata di ogni confort. La vera differenza però la fa Giuseppe, host super gentile e premuroso, pronto a dispensare consigli preziosi ed utilissimi.

"Appartement sombre, proche de la vieille ville mais des surcoûts non précisés dans l'annonce."

6.0

L'appartement est bien situé, proche de la vieille ville.

Nous pensions réserver un logement entier, ce qui n'est qu'en partie le cas. En effet il y a des surcoûts si l'on souhaite utiliser la seconde salle de bain (+25 euros pour la durée du séjour), si l'on souhaite utiliser l'un des canapés comme lit (+25 euros pour les draps par canapé). Même chose si l'on souhaite une arrivée anticipée ou un départ tardif (+25 euros). L'appartement est sombre. Le voisinage de l'immeuble peut être bruyant. On nous a demandé par message le double de la taxe indiquée par booking. Nous avons réglé la taxe telle que demandée par le site.

"Beautiful apartment and great host!!"

10.0

Very interesting apartment with beautiful original features. The living room has amazingly high ceilings. Giuseppe was very helpful not only with things in Catania but the surrounding towns and gave us a recommendation for the most amazing seafood restaurant in the nearby fishing town. He is also very good with communication and any questions you may have. There is free parking right outside which is very rare. Would definitely recommend!

"Excellent"

8.0

A beautiful, clean and well equipped appartment. The landlord was very friendly and gave us many practical tips for our stay in Catania. The location was superb, the city center is within easy walking distance, yet it is a quite location without much traffic or noise in the streets.

Unfortunatly there's a machine (generator, air conditioner, pump...?) right outside the bedroom window that makes loud whirring and whistling noises every few minutes. Sleeping with the window open was therefore impossible. The mattress was also very worn out. There are only italian channels on the television and no possibilty for netflix or something else.

"Great stay - magnificent apartment 😊"

10.0

Beautiful apartment - very spacious and everything you could need - very comfortable. Close to everything ,fab bars & restaurants near by. Really great friendly host, felt very looked after. Great instructions on self check in, even accommodating our slightly early arrival - thank you ☺️ 6 min walk to the bus stop where we caught the Alibus to the airport. Will definitely look to stay here again as we only had one night here and would love to come back .

Loved the bedroom - very comfy & cosy Air conditioned rooms

"Niestety minusy przysłoniły plusy."

4.0

Doskonały kontakt z zarządzającym mieszkaniem – szybkie odpowiedzi i uprzejma komunikacja to zdecydowany plus. Mieszkanie jest również przestronne i estetycznie urządzone.

Niestety, na tym kończą się pozytywne wrażenia. Podczas naszego trzydniowego pobytu wielokrotnie występowały problemy z dostępem do ciepłej wody. Sytuacja powtarzała się mimo zgłoszeń – woda znikała zarówno wieczorem, jak i rano, co znacząco utrudniało normalne funkcjonowanie. Każdorazowo problem był tymczasowo rozwiązywany po kontakcie, jednak jego powtarzalność sugeruje poważną wadę instalacji lub sposób jej działania. Brak stałego dostępu do ciepłej wody jest dla nas absolutnie niedopuszczalny. Dodatkowo łóżko było bardzo niewygodne, co jeszcze bardziej obniżyło komfort pobytu. Podsumowując pzestronne i pieknie urzadzone wnetrze, a także dobry kontakt z zarządzającym, nie rekompensują braku bieżącego dostepu do cieplej wody i niewygodnego łóżka.

"Great experience with Dimora del Papa🌸"

10.0

The property is perfectly located in a quiet street but 10 minutes walk to almost everything you want to see. You can find bars and restaurants close to the apartment too. The apartment is authentic with stylish details and very spacious and beautiful. You really get the feeling of living in Sicilia. The host is friendly and very helpful, he was available for all recommendations and support during our stay. All together we had an amazing experience 👍
