10/10 Exceptional

The room and private bathroom were clean. The gentleman helped me carry my heavy luggage up the stairs. He also met me at check in which made it very easy (no one is there 24/7). I was there just one night, but it was close to the Duomo square and the pedestrian shopping district. Highly recommend for those not wanting a high end hotel, but still wanting 5 star service!!

10/10 Exceptional

They were so good to send Jacopino for me at the airport for 25€ that was sooo well worth it. We found the place, I learned how to enter through 3 doors, then he dropped me t a nearby music festival and showed me how to get back. The place is clean, in an accessible area, my room was well appointed with AC and a hair dryer. Great choice if you don’t mind ducking your head in the attic room which was much larger than my $300 Rome room.

Whole place felt neglected, shower doors broken, bed uncomfortable, pillows were unbelievably subpar! Some financial investment could go along way for this place!

There was no air conditioning in the common areas. Also, it would’ve been really appreciative if there was a little more communication about how things worked in the area and miscommunication on terminology when renting the room.

Bra boende för den självständige

Trevligt rum och med bra städning och tillgänglig enkel frukost. Kontakt med personal endast via WhatsApp. Luftkonditionering bra, men låter alldeles för mycket. Trevligt område och gott om bra restauranger i närheten.

Struttura in zona comoda e centrale e host accogliente senza essere invasivo. Colazione in struttura con annesso terrazzino esposto alle prime luci del sole (incantevole). Struttura non adatta ad anziano o disabili per le tante scale da fare. No ascensore. Lenzuola pulite ma la pulizia della stanza e del bagno andrebbe migliorata. Montare una zanzariera nella finestrella del bagno che rimane sempre aperta per arieggiare sarebbe utile. Nel complesso una struttura comoda nella quale non manca nulla.

Personal ist super nett und gut erreichbar. Die Zimmer sind durch einen Innenhof erreichbar. Das Zimmer ist sehr sauber, zweckmäßig eingerichtet, aber hat alles was man braucht. Ausser einen Kühlschrank. Dafür einen Safe. Bis zum Zimmer ist es relativ ein Irrgarten, aber am zweiten Tag hatten wir gefunden wo was ist. Zum Frühstück hat es Zwieback, Croissants, Konfitüre, Butter, Nutella, Joghurt und Säfte. Wasser, Kaffee und Tee sind auch vorhanden. Klimaanlage ist etwas veraltet und deshalb etwas laut und kühlt gerade so genügend. Das Zimmer (Nr. 9) war zuoberst und hatte Dachschrägen, deshalb empfehle ich, falls jemand grösser als 1.65m ist vorher anzugeben. Im Badezimmer ist dies kein Problem. Die Lage ist super: 5 Gehminuten bis zur Piazza del Duomo und 2min bis zum Pescheria-Markt. Auch die Busstation und McDonalds sind in 4 Minuten erreichbar. Ein Mitarbeiter gibt einem Tipps (inkl. Straßenkarte) und Empfehlungen, was man in Catania machen kann oder wo das Essen gut ist. Vielen herzlichen Dank für alles.

L’hôtel est très bien situé. L’hôte a été très accueillant et nous a donné d’excellente recommandations. Notre expérience a été terni par une chambre n’ayant AUCUNE insonorité. Nous avons entendu le voisin d’en haut tapocher aux petites heures du matin, puis ensuite la femme de chambre avec un homme se crier après dans le couloir pendant 20 minutes et cela nous donnait l’impression qu’ils étaient à côté de nous tellement que le son porte. C’est dommage. L’éclairage des chambres n’est pas chaleureux non plus et la douche refoule. Je recommande tout de même pour notre hôte super sympa et l’emplacement stratégique, mais pour voyageur avisés!
