Catania Apartment
This was a reasonably priced charming 3 bedroom vintage walk up flat with fully equipped kitchen for making light food and snacks. The apartment also a washing machine but for drying clothes there is an outside clothes line--at the kitchen patio area. The apartment location is in the middle of Catania and there is an open air produce market and flea market every morning 7am to 1pm. Most everything you need is within walking distance and about 5 blocks away there is nice upscale shopping area There are several restaurants very near the flat. The host (Luca) is super helpful and responds to requests quickly. We got lost driving when first trying to get to the parking garage (2 blocks away from flat you have to take your luggage on foot from garage to the flat) but Luca came on his motor cycle and led us to the parking garage and then helped get our luggage to the apartment! We would stay there if we were come back to Sicily again!

For street market fans
This is a great place to stay if you want to use the Fera 'o Luni street market (which is amazing). Luca was very responsive at all times and fixed the patio grill promptly.

This is a great place to explore Catania by foot and neighboring villages/city by public transportation. The market, an excellent bakery, and popular restaurants are right around the corner. My email was shut down by my provider for security (I guess). Luca got me the missing information quickly once I contacted him. It is important to know the market noise starts right under your window early in the morning (carts wheeling by, talking). We sort of enjoyed the banter, but if you are someone who has trouble falling back to sleep or want to start your day late, you will want earplugs.

Great stay
Luca was great to work with. He had a driver waiting for us at the airport. The apartment is right by the open market. Don’t be concerned as you are walking to the apartment, it is clean inside, big steel door and we felt totally safe. Thank you Luca! We will see you again.

I enjoyed a two week holiday at the apartment and used it as a base to see all the attractions in the locality. Great apartment close to the centre and train station. I had constant contact with the host who organised the transfers to and from the airport. I highly recommend staying here.

Diamond in the rough
The interior is amazing. Very clean. Location was interesting and suited our taste (we want off the beaten path). Very comfortable with air conditioning. Very historical. The highlight for us was the very large open air market right outside the door (Piazza Carlo Alberto). Good deals galore. We had no water the last day and no internet. Host said packet was missing and no hair dryer. The Price for the unit was great.

Luca was amazing!!! The best host EVER!!!!
It was so nice to see Luca at the airport, picking us up & then having him take us back to the airport even though it was so early!!! He was always making sure we had everything we needed & kept in touch with us to make sure we were comfortable. The apartment is lovely & close to everything. You can smell fresh bread & pastries being made in the morning as they are just below the apartment. The market is so close and it is AMAZING!!!! They set up very early but it is so nice having everything that you need close by. We would definitely rent from Luca again. Thank you Luca for everything. ☺️☺️☺️

The apartment was in a good position for easy access to the centre of town with many local restaurants close by. There is also a huge food and clothing market just round the corner which starts at 6.00am every day. We found the noise rather a problem early in the morning. It had a table and chairs outside in the courtyard which we enjoyed using and the shower was brilliant. Luca was able to transfer us to and from the airport and was very helpful regarding all the attractions we hoped to visit, and anything else regarding the apartment. Sicily is quite beautiful even when Mount Etna covers everything in dust. Syracuse was our favourite place. Thanks Luca and have a good summer.

property was very good , quiet considering how near to the lovely buzzing market. Safe lock up.
Our apartment had an additional small outdoor kitchen...great if you want to cook fish from the daily market, which is a joy to see such a vast range of produce. Sicily is a great place to explore, don't forget your walking shoes. Plenty of tours , but if you check out previously where the bus stations are you can do your own itinerary. Fabulous architecture. Catania Tourist info in Doumo square very helpful...good English. Luca met us from the airport and was very helpful with eatery suggestions.... very good. Pastries are wonderful too! Worth checking out the Greek amphitheatre, odd just going in off a busy road....nearly missed it! An amazing place...so large.....totally unexpected. Bellini park is beautiful, even more so when a lady visitor sung a an aria in the bandstand! Trip to Syracuse was interesting but they close the ruins if it rains, which it did for us! Pity, but able to take a tourist bus ride to see the town, the catacombs are well worth a visit , so extensive, they close at lunchtime but the restaurant opposite is excellent. We were very impressed with our 5 day visit, and will come back.
