Never again. RUN, don’t walk to somewhere else!
Pros:

Good central location

Cons:

Opening the door the first time. It was like solving a Chinese puzzle. The elevator was very small. I almost lost 200 Euros from the non-existing wire fi. Always bad, even with the help of a rude desk clerk. I was bitten multiple times by mosquitos. Breakfast(small assortment)was a roll and coffee. The safe was almost impossible to work without a flashlight.

Great location. It’s a nice bit old fashioned hotel..
Pros:

Great location. Just off the famous Via Etnea. Close to the wonderful market and the lively restaurant area. Old fashioned. Located in the first floor but with elevator. 24/7 reception. Nice breakfast. From the balcony of the breakfast room you have the best view of the Etna! Good value for money.

Pros:

Персонал очень внимательный - это очень радует, но сам отель уже "подустал" и требует серьёзного ухода и ремонта.

Kies een ander hotel..
Pros:

Toplocatie in het centrum aan een levendige straat

Cons:

Creepy ingang waar je niet zomaar in of uit kunt zonder dat iemand hem elektronisch open doet, niet bepaald aardig personeel dat ook niet allemaal Engels spreekt, enorme geluidsoverlast van andere kamers en de 'lobby'. Ook een hele vreemde gang van zaken dat je elke keer de sleutel van je kamer in moet leveren als je naar buiten wilt en dat voelde voor ons niet goed. We hadden heel veel spijt van het boeken van dit hotel.

Duży pokój. Było cicho i ciemno w nocy.
Łóżko było wygodne.

Pokoje mają bardzo wysokie sufity powyżej 5m trochę ciężko je nagrzać. W nocy trochę marzłam

Pros:

No dice por fuera lo lindo que es por dentro.

Cons:

De noche asusta un poco, parece lúgubre, pero por día es la mejor ubicación y muy lindo.

Ottima soluzione
Pros:

Ottima posizione centrale e sicura, ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo. Reception h24. Presenza phon e cassaforte. Dimensioni buone della camera singola. Presenza ancfw del frigo che non ho utilizzato. Colazione essenziale ma con prodotti di qualità.

Cons:

Le parti esterne, scale e l'affaccio interno un po' fatiscente. Un po' di cura in piu' ai dettagli. Consiglio di mettere un bicchiere/tazza in camera ed eventualmente un piccolo bollitore.
