"Buena relación calidad / precio (con tapones para los oídos)"

8.0

Es un apartamento amplio, la cama es cómoda y está cerca del centro y los principales puntos de interés. Dejan cápsulas de café.

Está rodeado de bares nocturnos y es muy ruidoso por la noche. El sábado ya imposible dormir. Con poco, podrían proporcionar una estancia más cómoda: dejaron solo un rollo de papel higiénico para dos personas 4 noches.

"Great place to stay in the heart of Catania."

10.0

The apartment is in a very central location, just a minute walk from via Etnea and in the middle of a bar/restaurant street, which is very convenient. You have everything needed for a comforting stay, it’s clean and the host Luca is absolutely amazing and very responsive. We had a minor issue with a hairdryer and he quickly resolved it.

The host was super helpful and the room very clean, well equipped with white goods as in a normal home and provisions.

The apartment is on a street full of bars and restaurants which is great for socialising and nightlife. It did not bother us much however because after hours of sightseeing we slept through anything.

**Overall very positive stay with a great host and perfect location** I had a very positive experience staying in this apartment and would rate it overall highly. One of the biggest advantages was the communication with the host – it was smooth, detailed, and very helpful. At first, I was a bit concerned about sending a copy of my ID, but everything turned out to be perfectly fine and handled professionally, which I really appreciated. The location is excellent – right in the city center, close to the main street, with an amazing view of Mount Etna. It’s also very convenient in terms of transport, with easy access to and from the airport by bus. However, since the apartment is located on a pedestrian street full of restaurants and pubs, it gets extremely noisy in the evenings and even late at night (sometimes until 3 AM). If you’re looking for peace and quiet, especially with an open window or balcony, this might be an issue. On the other hand, if you enjoy nightlife, this place will be perfect for you. For me, it was a bit challenging, as I stayed only three nights and spent my days very actively, so I was hoping to rest in the evenings – unfortunately, closing the windows and balcony didn’t help much with the noise. The apartment itself is adequate for the price and has everything needed for a short stay. One downside for me was the lack of comfortable seating – there is only one armchair, so the second person has to sit on rather uncomfortable kitchen chairs. After long, active days, it would have been nice to relax more comfortably. In terms of design, I didn’t quite understand the glass partition separating the bed from the rest of the room – it made the space feel a bit claustrophobic, almost like a waiting room. In my opinion, replacing it with something like a dresser would create a more cozy and home-like atmosphere. That said, this is just my personal preference and didn’t significantly affect my overall impression.

We like the location, is 1 min away from Via Etnea, and 10 min walk to Piazza del Duomo The studio is on a street with plenty restaurants and bars, but there is no music in the evening, so you can sleep. The restaurant next door, Ciurma, you should try it It has a.small balcony to enjoy your coffee and sun I will stay here again

I was disappointed that the washing machine didn't work.

"A great space In a great location with a noise problem."

7.0

Great location. Clean. Nice host.

This property is not Soundproof and should not be listed as such. With the window open it sounds like a party and with the window closed it sounds like the party just moved next door. I know this location well and have stayed on the block before in soundproof apartments. This one is not it. I did not sleep for the 2 nights I was there. It’s great otherwise.
