Our stay in Catania was great. The hotel manager went above and beyond helping us on multiple occasions.
The area and views from the hotel were less than scenic but a short walk away was the dining, shopping, and historic areas. It was a little unnerving to find the hotel lobby door was locked on the inside so we could not exit without the desk clerk and his key when leaving early.

Great convenient location to train or shopping area, staff and service very helpful. Need to be vigilant though if you turn right. Breakfast service was particularly good. The bathrooms and other amenities are dated or need some maintenance.
