We enjoyed Graziana’s home very much. The apartment is well furnished, very clean and in a very good location. It’s bigger than it seems from the pictures. All rooms have air condition. Many restaurants and coffee shops around. It was easy to communicate with Graziana.
The best in every way! Such a beautiful, spacious, elegant place to stay. The view into the Piazza Bellini and the opera house was amazing. Central and close to all the sights of Catania. Our favorite restaurant just steps away. Don’t pass this one up! It was a pleasure and the best of our 7 cities tour of Italy.
Amazing apartment in Catania! Great location. The area was tranquil and beautiful. Communication with the owner was very easy. Highly recommend this apartment. Really beautiful.
This property was in the best spot , everything was at walking distance . The place was private & lots of sunlight . It was spacious and clean , the host was extremely responsive & helpful . We felt like we were watching tourist come and go from the square . We will diffinately stay here on our next visit to Catania.I would highly recommend this beautiful property for its value and close proximity to everything , we didn't take a taxi even once .
Excellent flat in a great location. Lots of activity in the square with spots for coffee or a glass of wine, and yet very quiet as the bedroom is on the back of the flat. Everything was walkable. The hosts were fantastic - they gave us great restaurant recommendations (and weather advice - so we went to Etna on the best day that we could). The flat is modern, spacious and spotless. If we're back in Catania we will definitely stay here.
Apartment was perfectly situated on charming square with dining and shopping options, easily walkable to Via Etnea. Catania is a vibrant and beautiful place!
This was a beautiful place to stay! There were many options for food and shopping nearby. The view of the Bellini Theater and courtyard was amazing. The rooms were very clean and beautiful. Graziana was very responsive. Would definitely stay here again.
Just a fantastic place to stay. Apartment was one of our best stays this trip. Would highly recommend to anyone staying in Cantania. PS the cookies where delicious!!!
This place is gorgeous and spacious. Location is prime for strolls. We loved Catania...even though pur car was broken into (definitely park overnight in a secure lot). The owners are very sweet and will do there best to make your stay comfortable.
We loved our stay in this apartment. The location was perfectly situated to encourage walking throughout the center city. It was clean and wonderfully spacious. The property owner and the person who prepared the apartment for us were responsive, pleasant, and helpful. We highly recommend.

Ospiti davvero gentili e attenti alle regole della casa.
Siamo felici che il teatro lirico Bellini, che sta sulla piazza della nostra casa , abbia ospitato alla prima della opera lirica. “Nozze di Figaro’ i nostri amici .
This apt overlooks Piazza Bellini and comes with a great kitchen, super dark and quiet bedroom, comfortable LR with big Smart TV. A/C in every room. Great stay.
Wow a beautiful place in an excellent location. The apartment was clean. Checking in/out was very easy. The communication was awesome. Would definitely come back. Thank You. Ciao
The piazza out the door was beautiful, active and perfectly located to walk to all the main sites of central city. The apartment was clean, comfortable and beautifuly decorated.
This centrally located apartment has everything you will need for a short-term stay. It is tastefully decorated and quiet for sleeping. You can have the housekeeper pick you up and drop you off at the airport too.

Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy
Disliked: Check-in, communication
Very well presented apartment, very homely, ideal location. The windows open nicely onto the Piazza Bellini but more for standing in to have a drink and look over the piazza. There is a balcony over the back courtyard off the bedroom but not ideal to sit outside on - inside is well appointed anyway and plenty of bar options nearby.Host could do better on communication, basically no advance details other than a WhatsApp exchange whilst walking towards the Piazza. Check in was midday but there was a slight delay apparently because previous guests decided they wanted a late check out, so that flows on of course but wasn’t a huge impact. Host did reach out during stay to ask if all ok though.Apartment is very quiet notwithstanding overlooking the Piazza, the “noisier” establishments are more coffee shops and actually close pretty early.Bedroom is spacious but mattress wasn’t to my liking, very spongy. A small gripe, host really needs to invest in some wine glasses, there was one glass only (and more suited to a Tiramisu) plus 3 little glasses - ideal if you want to drink Marsala though. Would also be good to provide some coffee capsules like most other venues in Italy, there were 3 capsules for 2 people for 4 nights, we did have some of our own though but still nice to not to have to bring your own.
Fantastic property with lots of space and a fold out sofa which was very comfortable and is located in the lounge which can be closed off to create its own room. Would highly recommend.
