    Like the other reviews for the ‘Blue’ apartment the bedroom window didn’t seem to be sealed properly and so the street noise at night did wake us up however we soon got used to it.

    Compact, clean and just what we needed for our 4 night trip. Christiano was an excellent host, providing us with locals knowledge and sorting out a hire car for us. The apartment was in a great location, very central for exploring Catania and going further afield.

    We really enjoyed our stay at Terra dell'Etna. The host Christiano was always available and would go the extra mile to assist in any way. He even carried our luggage up a flight of stairs and believe me...myself and my friend do not travel light. The room was beautifully decorated and nice and clean. It is in a safe and great location close to Via Etnea. Christiano recommended restaurants and places to visit. He even arranged transport to the airport. Much appreciated Christiano.

    The room does not take the sunlight that much, if you plan to take a nap, i would suggest you to set an alarm to wake up. if you do not open the curtain, it is really hard to realize if it is still morning or night. The bathroom thermostat was not perfect. While you are taking a shower, you can get an ice cold water immediately.

    The hotel was super close to the city center, whenever you feel tired, it is really easy to reach the room. Owner was super nice and helped us about where to visit and answered all our questions really quick.

    The apartment is facing one of the busiest streets with a lot of traffic. Get yourself good earplugs, the location is more than worth this minor inconvenience.

    The location is superb, the host is attentive and makes you feel welcome. The room was clean, the bed comfortable and the amenities were just enough.

    The owner is a very nice young man, he gave us the keys personally and helped us with everything during our stay. Responds immediately to your messages. The apartment is in a good location - in the center, but don't forget earplugs, I wouldn't be able to sleep without them. If you have a rental car, I recommend paying for insurance, the roads are total chaos! :-) Right under the apartment is a cafe with a beautiful garden where they have excellent breakfast. The easy park application works great throughout Sicily, you can park everywhere on the blue lanes, you can always adjust the parking time according to reality, and the total amount for 4 days was deducted from my account after a few days.

    The downside of this in the middle of the city location is the fact that could be a bit noisy. Not enough to not let you sleep though, but just to consider it

    The location was great and the apartment is very nice and you could find anything you want. The bed was comfortable and clean. The host was extremely helpful during our stay.

    We had an apartment on the street side of the building. As far as the balcony door was well insulated from the noise, the bedroom window was letting thru street noise like as it was open. The street is narrow and busy, so every car or scooter passing by was making terrible noise. If you are light sleeper I would consider that.

    Very clean. Well organised. Lots of amenities. LOCALIZATION! Other from noise everything was excellent. Good for short term stay.

    Only thing I can say is that our room was the last one available and it had only a window not a balcony. Owner said that the others are with balcony.

    Super clean, central and had all the necessaries. The owner was really nice and helpful. It is like a hotel room but also like a mini apartment as it had also a microwave,fridge,real coffee machine and a kettle. Free coffee,sugar etc and also some free croissants. T.v and a.c plus toiletries. Clean white towels and bedding. I reccomend it, especially if you're after not so expensive but super clean.

    There is no terrace or balcony. With booking.com, it is hard to know which room from the same host is booked.

    The host was very friendly and helpful. The purple room was lovely and the bed was comfortable. The bathroom was spacious enough. The accommodation is in a very good location, next to the city centre. The street was not too noisy.
