I had a pleasant stay overall at this hotel, located right in the center of Catania and very close to both the bus and train stations. The rooms were clean and the bed was really comfortable, but the shower could have been a bit bigger. The staff was friendly and helpful. The dining options included some tasty pasta, but breakfast could use a little variety. I found the overall value for money to be satisfying, though Wi-Fi not being free was a bit of a letdown.
