An oasis of calm in chaotic Catania

In the heart of a lively, colourful neighbourhood, Gianluca's house is an oasis of calm. A hidden garden complete with resident cats sunning themselves was a wonderful addition to the bright, clean and comfortable apartment. Well designed, well taken care of and Gianluca goes out of his way to make you feel welcome. We loved our stay and would happily return. A great holiday experience.

Great place

Not only the apartment is perfectly clean and well located but Gianluca is a fantastic host. He gave us great advice and we really had an enjoyable time. The garden in front of the apartment is perfect for families and the animals, hens, cats and fishes are a great entertainment for the kids. Definitely recommendable for families and couples.
