Convenient near airport.

The hotel was a few minutes by car to the airport in Catania, which helped save us time for an early flight. Parking lot was gated, no problems in and out. Great shower.

I can’t say enough about how nice the staff is at this property. The woman went out of her way to make arrangements for us during our stay, above and beyond what any normal hotel proprietor would do. Despite our language barrier, she was SO nice. The location is unfortunately in the middle of an industrial zone which makes it less convenient unless you have a car.
