Great hotel. Sub-par neighborhood
The hotel itself was great. Brand new with nice pool and walking distance to the beach. The service was great and the personel was very welcoming and helpful. The breakfast was also great. However, the neighborhood wasn't great. Lots of trash on the street even the seashore. In general, i dont recommend Catania in Sicily. We liked Syracuse muxh more. Better maintained and more activities.
