Binario 8 Catania Stazione Centrale

Nice apartment, super close to train station.

For breakfast, there were foil-wrapped croissants. Do not recommend.

Very clean and stylish b&b, easy access to bus terminal and train station.

I am amazed at the shared use of the bathroom in the middle of the night.

Location close to station

Stairs and shared bathroom

The booking stated that the entire apartment was for my use alone. It did not state that the apartment was two rooms and shared a bathroom and other public areas. So when I was using the bathroom or taking a shower, I would be disturbed by others and feel a little uncomfortable.

The building is interesting, in an old typical house. The position from the airport is across the street from the central station of the bus. For one night, as it is cheap, and you have no problem to share the bathroom with someone else, then it is fine. As for the bad rating below, I could not post all the messages between me and the owner; I just wanted to prove that I am not lying. I am tired of people who lie in their ads, and then they are asking nicely not to give a bad rating. An elegant host who is assuming about the problems says sorry and then doesn't comment badly, like mocking the guest; an owner with no customer service experience will try to make you look like a bad person, which he did. By the way, I would like to tell you that I work in tourism, and I am not sure if I used the shower for 10 minutes; I think it was less because usually in 15 minutes, as a woman, I can wash my hair too. That fast I am. You know the words "If you were silent, you were a philosopher," well, they don't apply to you. And booking please post the pictures from the room, you will see how renovated it is.

I didn't do my homework right, so I didn't pay attention to the fact that there is one shared bathroom with another room; that was my fault. The problem was that the hot water was not enough, not even for 10 minutes. So , I washed with cold water in the end. But the owner said that this is a renovated house. I would say it is not, maybe just the painting on the walls, but not even that everywhere. It is more or less looking like a hostel, in my opinion. They say that you have breakfast; that is no breakfast, that is a snack: some yogurt, a croissant, water, tea, and coffee. But, then again, Italians are not really into breakfast. Because the owner answered mocking me about the shower I am posting the messages between us, and I cannot post them all due to the capacity allowed: I had no idea that the bathroom is shared, I didn't even looked at that, that is awful. The warm water was over in not even 10 min. Not to metion how old looks the room. No wonder it was cheap, now I get it. 🫣 hello the ad is for a room with shared bathroom it is specified, I'm sorry if you had a bad experience, the xasa was renovated 1 year ago, everything is new, for the water, the capacity of a water for a shower is 100 liters, a more than reasonable amount for a shower. I'm sorry if you didn't like the house but please keep in mind that the ad is clear, there is no bad faith on my part. Really? Where exsctly in the description it says that the warm water that you have its only 100 l? 😁 I'm really sorry you didn't like the house, just leave the keys in the room, don't worry about the tax, I'll take care of it. I'm really very sorry, believe me, I try to do the best I can, I accept the advice to put a bigger water heater.

The apartment is very close to the train station so it was easy to travel with luggage. It was very clean and spacious, with everything I needed for my short stay (like coffee machine).
