A Jazzy Little Number ;)
My husband and I and a friend stayed for 4 nights in February '25. It was fantastic. Fabio was fantastic. When self-catering there are always questions about disposing of the garbage, getting groceries, where to eat, how to run the washing machine etc. Fabio provided excellent instructions, a good sense of humour, an appreciation of jazz (not necessary for a good VRBO host, but a definate plus!) and most wonderfully, a gem of an apartment. Each of the bedrooms was roomy with a comfortable bed and good linens, and surprisingly quiet given the central location.Neither bath was ensuite, but both were very clean and looked to be very newly constructed. The plumbing worked! (temperature can fluctuate as the in-line water heater cycles, be nimble, don't be alarmed) The showers both had good water pressure, functioning hand-helds and overhead rain shower fixtures. The towel warmers worked! The kitchen is good for reheating take away, making small meals, salads, etc. The View! Wowzers! The location is excellent. The small lift worked like a charm. In 9 trips to Italy this was one of the very best host/ apartment combos I have experienced. Fabio obviously takes great pride in his rental.There are some buskers near the entrance to the courtyard of the building. It was lovely to sit on the terrace and listen to the music and the hum of the city drifting upwards.You are in the heart of Catania, and this apartment invites you to become part of the heartbeat.Grazie mille Fabio!
