“The hotel places you within walking distance of Catania Cathedral and the Roman Theatre; plus, the air-conditioned rooms and equipped kitchens suit leisure travelers and families. For those with pets, this could be ideal; however, light sleepers might want to consider the street noise. Overall, a good option for its price and location.”
