    The room was spacious, had a nice view and was well maintained. the staff were very friendly and accommodating. the location was excellent, close to all the main attractions and transport links. We enjoyed the delicious breakfast that was included in the room rate and the festive decorations made it even more special.

    the bathroom had some plumbing problems and there was a loud noise that interrupted our sleep.

    I had a really great stay at this hotel! the value for money is excellent - I couldn't believe how affordable it was considering the location and amenities. Speaking of which, the hotel is right in the heart of Catania, close to everything and in a safe area. The staff were friendly and provided excellent service, and the basic amenities in the rooms were all of high quality. I especially loved the rooms with balconies, as they had air conditioning to keep me cool and high ceilings which made the space feel even more spacious. The rooms were also in good condition and the breakfast included was a nice bonus.

    Everything was absolutely fine, no complaints whatsoever.

    This hotel in the heart of Catania offers excellent value for money. The rooms are in good condition and have a unique design with high ceilings. The location is perfect, situated in the safe and historic center of the city. Additionally, the breakfast is included in the price and provides a satisfying start to the day.

    The only improvement needed was the daily floor cleaning.

    This hotel offers great value for money. The prices are reasonable, especially considering its central location in the heart of Catania. The rooms are in good condition with high ceilings and unique designs. I loved having a balcony to enjoy the view of the bustling main street and Etna. The breakfast included was a delightful treat, with delicious pastries and a hot drink.

    The only minor improvement would be to have breakfast served in the hotel instead of having to go to a nearby cafeteria. However, overall, everything was ok.
