Camere curare, confortabile, parcare cu plata langa cladire.
Pros:

In afara de camere, poți folosi și spatiul comun (o zona de dining si terasa care este spatioasa).
Camerele au fost foarte curate, a fost liniste. Proprietara este foarte atenta si administrează corect locația.

Cons:

Sejurul nostru a fost in timpul sarbatorii Sfânta Agatha și in imprejurimile cladirii era mizerie / gunoaie dar parea ca este o ptoblema generala in toata zona.

Goed gelegen en mooi hotel
Pros:

De 6 de keer in dit hotel.
Alle comfort, we kregen een upgrade.
Het personeel is attent, de buurt die wat verwaarloosd is aan de linkerkant wordt stilaan aangepakt, langs rechts ben je direct ih historisch centrum.
Ontbijt is ook goed, zelf al ben je met dieet, is er voldoende keuze.
Hotel is nog altijd mooi en luxueus ook al zijn er kleine sporen van gebruik. Heeft mij niet gestoord.

Pros:

Staff are polite in general and friendly.

Cons:

Room furniture is old, bathroom basin design is not practical (no place to hang face towel) and room has no ventilation so a bit stuffy. The location is a bit sleazy area and though its west side has lots of good trattorias, along its east side streets ( catania central st side) are prostitute looking ladies standing here and there at night so not so recommendable for female lone traveler to go out at night….

Close to city center
Pros:

Very close to the city center, nice old building but fully refurbished.

Cons:

Even for the winter, it was a little too warm for my standards. Very safe when walking to the city center, but few hundreds meters away from the city center, the same street becomes a shady neighborhood.

Piacevole soggiorno a Catania
Pros:

Staff gentilissimo, ottima colazione con proposte interessanti, possibilità di cuocere pancakes e waffles al momento e prodotti a km zero molto apprezzati. Bella struttura, ci hanno offerto upgrade gratuitamente! Ottima posizione centrale in una zona che sta vedendo una riqualificazione urbana.

Cons:

Consiglierei una maggiore attenzione ai dettagli nella pulizia delle stanze.
