Sangiuliano 114

Nice once inside but the area surrounding is kind of intimadint no lights and alone

They went out of their way to accommodate our early arrival and early morning departure, making sure there was something for early breakfast. Great location. Would stay here again.

The location is a short walk into the city or to the ferry or train stations. The staff were very friendly and helpful although there was a little delay in meeting to check me in. I loved my room and the ensuite bathroom and nice little internal balcony for fresh air. Light buffet breakfast was great too. I couldn’t fault the internal of the hotel it’s just a pity the exterior looks a little poorly but that’s true of most of Catania. The building could definitely do with a lift - and I mean an internal one to avoid the stairs to the 3rd floor!

Very close to city centre, lovely architecture and surrounding stores and restaurants. The property was lovely once inside and upstairs, the room was nice and the AC was great. The bed was comfy and the amenities in the room were a nice touch. As tourists, we struggled with the street parking as Expedia misrepresents it as having “free onsite parking” (we will be contacting Expedia). Michele was kind and helpful over the phone but we didn’t meet any staff during our stay which was different than other b&bs we’ve stayed at. On our second night, the front door lock was broken and we didn’t feel the safest coming back at night although there is a second locked door on the upper floor. Expedia also misrepresents this property as a ‘Hotel’ which we specifically filtered for as-well as the “free parking”. We realise most of our frustrations belong with Expedia and our limited understanding of Italian, but we believe that the owner should be aware of how a third party is advertising their property and correct any clearly large errors. Our trip cost us more than we budgeted for due to the not free parking.
