Loft Vicolo Lavico

Jedynym plusem była lokalizacja. Blisko do najważniejszych punktów.

„Ktoś” podczas naszej nieobecności włamał się (kopnął drzwi, które były słabej jakości, właściciel ich nie zabezpieczył) i nas okradł ze wszystkich rzeczy. Po napisaniu do właściciela ten przyjechał i jedyne co zrobił to naprawił drzwi. Kilkukrotnie prosiłyśmy słownie i w wiadomościach o pomoc i zawiadomieniu policji, ze względu na brak znajomości ich języka. Właściciel zapewnił, że to zrobi, jednak po 3 dniach stwierdził, że mogłyśmy zrobić to same. Zapewniał również, że ze względu na słabe zabezpieczenie mieszkania zwróci nam rekompensatę. Poprosił o numer rachunku bankowego i po naszym wyjeździe zerwał kontakt, oczywiście rekompensaty nigdy nie zobaczyłyśmy. Brak pomocy, brak kontaktu, a straty poniosłyśmy na ponad 1500€. Poza tym mieszkanie brudne, w koszach śmieci po poprzednich gościach. Po okropnym brudzie który zostawił złodziej musiałyśmy sprzątać same. While we were away, "someone" broke in (kicked in the door, which was of poor quality and had not been secured by the owner) and stole all our belongings. After writing to the owner, he came and all he did was repair the door. We asked him several times, both verbally and in messages, to help us and notify the police, as we did not speak their language. The owner assured us that he would do so, but after 3 days he said that we could have done it ourselves. He also assured us that due to the poor security of the flat, he would compensate us. He asked for our bank account number and after we left, he broke off contact. Of course, we never saw any compensation. No help, no contact, and we suffered losses of over €1,500. In addition, the flat was dirty, with rubbish left behind by previous guests. After the terrible mess left by the thief, we had to clean up ourselves.

La desatención de los anfitriones

Все было отлично. С пониманием отнеслись к раннему заезду, так же предложили оставить вещи до отъезда!

La struttura adeguata e il personale si è dimostrato sempre gentile e disponibile. Nel complesso un’ottima esperienza.

Purtroppo nel periodo in cui siamo capitati erano in corso lavori di ristrutturazione all’ingresso, e con le valigie risultava un po’ scomodo passare.

The owner responds quickly and communicates promptly. All the photos on the website match reality. The apartment description is also accurate.

Please read the description and reviews carefully so your expectations are met. The bed linen is clean, as are the towels, but the overall cleaning of the apartment leaves much to be desired. There’s quite a lot of dust, the windows are dirty, and the shower is not clean either. Reviews mention that the boiler makes noise — yes, that’s true, and sometimes it’s quite loud. At night, under the ceiling and along the load-bearing inner wall, mice (or birds) run around, and you can hear them very clearly at night and in the morning. There is mold in the apartment, and as soon as you enter, you’ll notice the smell of dampness. The air conditioner works very well, but its placement is very unfortunate — you won’t feel any coolness on the second level (the bed is above the AC unit). In September it already felt stuffy; I can’t imagine what it will be like for people in July.

Firstly, the location! Just a 5-minute walk to the train station and the same to the bus station and local buses. The nearest restaurant/pizzeria is a 3-minute walk away (I recommend "I Santi Pizza" - very friendly service and delicious pizza). If you would like to eat a local breakfast and drink coffee in the morning at a very reasonable price, I recommend "Caffè Costa" - 2 minutes walk away.The neighborhood may not be beautiful, but it's typical of Catania. The apartment is behind a sturdy gate with a key, which gives a sense of security. The apartment is well-equipped - there's a stove, fridge with freezer, kettle, all the necessary cutlery, pots, etc. The shower works perfectly, has good water pressure, and always has hot water. Downstairs there's a shower, toilet, bidet, and sink, while the upstairs bedroom has only a toilet, bidet, and sink, no shower. The bed is large and comfortable. The WiFi was average - sometimes it was impossible to connect. At the back there's a small patio with a table and seating.

Opening the gate can be a bit tricky, but once you figure it out, it's fine. The air conditioning works well, but unfortunately, it doesn't reach the upstairs bedroom, so you should expect the temperature in the bedroom to be several degrees warmer than downstairs. The boiler upstairs makes a rather loud squeaking noise, which can make it difficult to fall asleep. The water from the outside air conditioner isn't draining properly, causing puddles to form on the patio.
