I had a lovely stay at this hotel, perched on the most beautiful terrace in Catania, offering stunning views from its balconies. The room was charming, and I greatly appreciated how helpful the staff was throughout my visit. However, the external bathroom setup was a bit inconvenient, and I wish the service had more dinner options available. Overall, it’s a great spot for exploring the city, especially for the price.
