“I found this to be a practical choice for exploring Catania; a recent renovation has brought modern amenities to its rooms, including well-equipped kitchens. The location puts you within reach of the Roman Theatre and Piazza Duomo, and while parking in the immediate area presented a minor challenge, the convenience of nearby parking apps eased that issue. I appreciated the bicycle rental service that made getting around simple.”
