Buona esperienza, i proprietari di sono dimostrati attenti e cordiali. Posteggio in loco e diversi locali raggiungibili a piedi. Consigliato L’unico consiglio che mi permetto di dare sarebbe dotare le stanze di adattatori Schuko perché gli elettrodomestici (Phon e bollitore) hanno la spina non compatibile con gli standard.

Consigliato

La struttura è ben posizionata e nelle vicinanze si trovano diversi servizi. Camera matrimoniale comoda con TV, scrivania e frigo (2 bottigliette d'acqua omaggio). Bagno con doccia confortevole e disponibilità di phon. Terrazzino con tavolino e sedie. Il proprietario è stato gentilissimo e molto disponibile, ci ha contattato prima del soggiorno per chiedere preferenza di letto(matrimoniale o singoli), a fine soggiorno abbiamo chiesto di ritardare il checkout e ci è stato permesso senza nessun problema. Consiglio sicuramente la struttura sia per la comodità che per la disponibilità ricevuta.

Come sentirsi a casa

Posizione comodissima, a pochi minuti dal centro e a pochi minuti dall'imbocco dell'autostrada utile per visitare tutta la costa orientale della sicilia. Proprietario gentilissimo, simpatico, cortese: grazie Michelangelo per la bella settimana che ci hai fatto passare come tuoi ospiti. Ogni mattina ti serve una colazione buonissima, dolce e salata e ti allieta con la sua simpatia. Persona meravigliosa!! Che dire, non vedo l'ora di tornare nel suo B&B per proseguire la visita di quella bellissima regione chiamata Sicilia!!

Buona sistemazione per visitare Catania e dintorni

Camera pulita (l'igiene per noi è fondamentale) e dal curioso arredamento, anche se con spazi ridotti che però non rappresentano un problema per soggiorni di un paio di notti. Peccato per alcuni elementi vetusti, tipo battiscopa ed infissi. Buona la colazione e soprattutto molta disponibilità e gentilezza da parte della proprietaria. Nel complesso il soggiorno è gradevole.
