Guest Reviews
- Inga (10/5): -
- rosita (10/5): Assolutamente da consigliare - La pulizia , l’attenzione per i dettagli e in assoluto la gentilezza, simpatia e disponibilità delle proprietarie Nulla, tutto perfetto
- Roberto (9/5): -
- juan antonio (10/5): - Les propietàries són molt atentes i t'ajuden amb tot el que necessites tant del bnb com de la ciutat i de l'illa.
- AM (10/5): - L'accoglienza dello staff. La colazione. La pulizia. Niente
- Petra (10/5): - Cosa possiamo dire? Miria e Cristina ci hanno coccolato dal primo all'ultimo momento, offrendoci innanzitutto una buonissima e ricchissima colazione e dandoci tante informazioni e consigli che ci hanno aiutato nell'organizzazione su cosa visitare, dove andare a mangiare ecc. Sono due persone con un grande cuore. La stanza molto bella e super pulita. Se torniamo a Catania, sicuramente scegliermo nuovamente questo B&B.
- Simone (10/5): Struttura curatissima e gestita con passione - La struttura viene gestita da Mira e Cristina, sempre disponibilissime e attente ai dettagli anche minimi. La nostra camera era appena rinnovata e perfettamente funzionante. Da lodare la pulizia impeccabile e la flessibilita' nell'accontentare le preferenze per la colazione. Ho apprezzato i suggerimenti su come muoverci e sui locali in cui andare a mangiare. Ci e' piaciuta inoltre la posizione periferica ma comunque ideale per scendere a piedi verso il mare o raggiungere la stazione di Ognina per andare ad esempio a Taormina. La cucina inoltre dotata di bollitore, microonde e frigorifero permette di bere un the all'occorrenza e volendo di riscaldare qualche pietanza. Siamo stati davvero bene! Nessuna nota negativa.

- Tiago.Miguel (8/5): Alguns dias bem passados - Das anfitriãs e o próprio quarto tinha o necessário para nós. O quarto era limpo e arranjado todos os dias. Além disso, fomos bem aconselhados o que devíamos visitar, tendo em conta os planos que tínhamos para o dia. (Exemplo se fosse visitar a cidade então davam os pontos de interesse para isso) É uma cidade muito movimentada e os cortinados não bloqueiam completamente a luz exterior.
- Valentina (8/5): - Ho soggiornato con la mia famiglia soltanto una notte in quanto ci trovavamo di passaggio a Catania. Abbiamo conosciuto Miria e Cristina al check-in e si sono rivelate delle persone deliziose, ospitali e premurose. A cena abbiamo ordinato da mangiare e ci siamo goduti la veranda esterna!
- Bérangère (10/5): - Un séjour absolument parfait ! Les deux hôtesses nous ont accueillis avec une gentillesse et une disponibilité remarquables. Chambre impeccable et tous les jours refaite avec soin, petit déjeuner généreux et délicieux, conseils avisés pour découvrir l'Est de la Sicile. Une adresse chaleureuse que nous recommandons sans hésiter !
- Léa (10/5): Comme à la maison! - L’accueil était incroyable et très chaleureux. Le petit déjeuner était vraiment bon et copieux. Nous nous sommes sentis comme à la maison. Rien à dire c’était super !!

- Michael (10/5): Exceptional - The service was exceptional. We had fresh pastries, meats, breads and fruit every morning. And I cannot forget the coffee. Our room was cleaned every morning with clean towels. Miriam was very helpful in suggesting places to see and always sending us links so that we would not get lost. In other words, we were treated like family. Thank you Miriam and Cristina, you outdid yourselves. God Bless you. We didn't like that we had to leave.
- Gerald (10/5): Platinum service at Scirocco d'Africa B&B! - We had a fantastic stay at Scirocco D'Africa! Our hosts Miriam and Cristina are absoulte gems! They prepared delicious, hearty breakfasts to keep us going all day and gave us innumerable local advice of what to see and do in Catania! The B&B is kept immaculately clean and the beds are very comfortable! It is located in a very strategic location just outside the busy Catania centre, yet close to the promenade and excellent restaurant frequented by locals. Highly recommended! Everything was perfect!
- Stanisław (10/5): As for Sicily, this was an unique experience of exceptional hospitality of the owner. Very clean! -

- Charles (10/5): Great Host, Great Breakfast, Great room. - Miriam was a fantastic host and prepared a superb breakfast.
- Daryl (9/5): There is no substitute for hospitality - Great hospitality and fantastic breakfast Probably too far away from the centre, just means getting back in the car
- Eleni (10/5): ABSOLUTELY HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!! - In Greece we say that people make the difference. Myriam and Cristina are the best hostesses we have ever met by far, all these years that we travel. We can not thank them enough for their hospitality and professionalism. Actually, the way that they run their business is the reason that everyone should choose this apartment in Catania. Room and bathroom are spacious, well equipped and spotlessly clean . Air conditioner working properly. We did not mind the distance from the city centre, since we had a car and it was quite easy to find a parking lot nearby. Breakfast was definitely the highlight of our stay : it was the best breakfast served through "breakfast included" rooms, in our whole journey in Sicily. We ate eggs in breakfast after one week. It also included a variety of local delicacies savory and sweet, as well as yoghurt, fruits, juices e.t.c. Overall it was a WORTH REMEMBERING accommodation. Keep up the good work!!! Wish you all the best!!! Nothing to dislike.
- Anže (9/5): Superb - Our host Miria was amazing. She provided all the information about activities near Catania. She also prepared delicious breakfast. Beds are very comfortable and the accomodation is good to stay for a couple of days. The neighbourhood was full of trash all around the street, just like in the city center.
- Jorge (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tomas (10/5): Exceptional - Accommodating staff, sandwiches for early check out, help with parking spot and dinner recommendation.
- Gabriella (10/5): We had a very nice time and felt looked after very well. - The host, Miriam is exceptionally caring and nice, the best host l have ever met.The accomodation and the service were excellent. The parking situ can be tricky in front of the property.
- Alexey (10/5): Exceptional - Clean and nice room. Delicious breakfast. Miria is a kind person. She allowed us early check in, moved from central station, gave plenty useful advices and even bought present for my child. Thank you
- Sanja (10/5): Miriam was amazing host , welcoming, kind & supportive - everything was great. Room was beautiful. Garden lovely. Breakfast was excellent
- Aneta911 (10/5): Highly recommended ! - I would like to thank Miriam for her hospitality, she is great person, really helpful and open. Gave us good tips and where to eat like 'locals'. Room is really spacious, bathroom well equipped. Both were cleaned every day, towels changed as well. Air conditioner working properly. Breakfast delicious, tipical sicilian sweet but with additional of meats and cheese. We can drink juice and water that were available in fridge, everytime we wanted. Highly recommended to stay in Catania !
- Maciej (10/5): Exceptional - Great atmosphere and hospitality!
