Amazing Apartment! Everything was very clean and well organized. There was an AC unit, a fully equipped kitchen and towels. Communication with the owner was amazing and she answered all our questions quickly. Only downside would be the location, so you definitely need a car (or go by uber).Thank you so much!! Would recommend!!

EXCELLENT APARTMENT IN CATANIA

WE HAVE STAYED AT AIR B&Bs AND VRBOs AND THIS ONE WAS OUR BEST EXPERIENCE, BY FAR. IT LIVED UP TO OUR EXPECTATIONS FROM THE PICTURES POSTED ON THE VRBO SITE. IT WAS VERY CLEAN, QUIET AND PRIVATE. WE HAD BREAKFAST, UNCH AND DINNER OUT ON THE PATIO, WITH LARGE TREES PROVIDING PRIVACY. OUR HOST SPOKE VERY GOOD ENGLISH AND WE HAD NO PROBLEMS COMMUNICATING. WE WOULD LIKE TO COME BACK AGAIN NEXT YEAR!

We stayed in this lovely apartment for 5 nights while exploring Catania, Taormina and Siracusa and it proved to be a nice central home base. The apartment is well situated in a quiet, clean and easy to navigate residential neighbourhood. There was always plenty of parking available on the street. It is close (walking distance even) to a supermarket, as well as having a nice bakery with home made ready-prepared meals on the corner and a fruit and vegetable shop two blocks away. The apartment itself is clean, spacious and comfortable although access to it, on the third level, is up a winding staircase, so not suitable for those with mobility issues. The kitchen is basic but has all you need to make your own meals, some basic supplies, and we found a nice bottle of wine chilling in the fridge when we arrived, which we appreciated after a long day of travel. There is a washer, plenty of space on the balcony for hanging clothes or relaxing on the lounge chairs, a nice sized bathroom with good water pressure, good wifi, and a comfortable bed. Grazia was a wonderful, charming host, easy to communicate with, and helpful answering any questions we had. A great experience and we would not hesitate to rent this apartment again when returning to the area.

The host was perfect. We were a bit nervous due to a few mishaps, but Grazia was very patient with us, and we managed to resolve everything in time. The house had everything we needed, although we did miss having a few kitchen utensils, such as a peeler. I think it is worth noting that you have to climb a spiral staircase to reach the house, as we hadn't expected that. The only real issue we had was the distance to the city center, as the nearby public transport sometimes didn't show up. I would highly recommend having your own car.

Juste parfait

Grazia est une femme très ouverte et au petit soin. Si vous avez des questions sur Catane elle saura vous répondre. De plus elle est très arrangeante et disponible. Pour le logement, il se trouve sur les hauteurs de Catane au calme. Il est très facile de se stationner. Il est à environ 25min de l’aéroport, 20 min de la plage de catane et l’accès à l’A18 pour le nord a environ 10min. Il y a une boulangerie, resto, pharmacie accessible à pied et une pompe à essence à 2min. L’appartement a tout le confort et la terrasse est un vrai plus.on s’y sent bien. Si je dois revenir sur Catane, je reviendrais ici.

pulito, comodo, tutti in ordine e tranquillo per la maggioranza

L'appartamento era molto pulito, ben arredate, il terrazzo e' bellissima e tutto cio' che il bisogno di vivere. Grazia e il suo marito mi hanno accolto quando sono arrivato. Quando sono arrivato avevo una problema con il mio telefono and ed erano molto attento e disponibile finche' abbiamo trovato un soluzione temporanea. Grazia era disponibile sempre per domande o dubbi. La zona e' molta bella e molto calmo ma c'era un po troppo cane che abbaia. Ho viaggiato molto in Italia e sono stati nella molti appartamenti e questo e' sicuramente uno dei migliore.

Sehr sehr schöne Ferienwohnung in ruhiger Lage

Wir hatten dieses tolle Appartement für 12 Tage. Es war sehr sauber und hatte alles was man braucht. Sah genauso aus wie auf den Fotos zu sehen. Der große Balkon war klasse. Die Ausstattung war sehr modern für sizilianische Verhätnisse. Die Lage war super, sehr ruhig gelegen und doch verkehrsgünstig. Die Vermieterin war sehr freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit. Wir haben uns gut auf englisch mit ihr verständigen können. Es war ein wunderschöner Urlaub. Danke Grazia☺
