The staff at this hotel were excellent, however, the rooms desperately need to be renovated. Threadbare carpet, wallpaper is peeling off the walls, etc. It looks like it hasn't been renovated in 20 years, no joke.

Property was good and staff was very helpful. It was within a 10 minute walk to the Main Street via Etnea. The area around the hotel is dirty, but from what I have seen that is basically Sicily in a nutshell. Beautiful island, very nice people, lots of garbage.

The staff were great - very helpful and kind. The room was spotless and fresh and had a great shower. Outside there was a lot of rubbish piled on the street which was not the fault of the hotel but was unpleasant.

Nice, clean, safe and friendly accommodation!! The staff is very friendly and professional; they make you feel welcomed and resolve your requests promptly so you can focus on your trip. Internet is a bit slow for the regular EU standards.

2/10 Poor
21 June 2021
Awful WiFi, AC, Keycards, Soundproofing
There were a lot of problems with the hotel. For one, the walls are paper thin and make people speaking down the hall sound like they are in the room with you. Over our 4 night stay, we tried to use the room key roughly 6-7 times and only once did it work without us having to walk back down to the desk to have it reactivated. The WiFi and any use of internet is non-existent as the signal is so weak that you cannot open a basic page. The shower soaks the floor of the bathroom unless you point it directly at the wall and lean up against it. The AC in the room is extremely weak and barely cooled the room down if it worked at all. The location is also not great. It is about one mile from anything that you would looked to see/do in Catania and just alone in a neighborhood without any desirable restaurants, bars, shops, etc. I would steer interested travelers to another hotel.

Booked this hotel for one night for easy access to airport for early morning flight to Rome. Would stay here longer for a visit to Catania. Difficult to reach by private car, so not ideal as a headquarters for regional exploration by car. Staff very friendly and helpful. Non pretentious practical choice.
