    There are one things to be aware of. There is no elevator, and I had to carry my luggage up to the fourth floor, which was quite tiring. It really took a lot of effort and was not a pleasant arrival experience for me…. Otherwise it would be perfect.

    The location is great, and I was pleasantly surprised to find a kitchen in the room. The staff and property manager were very helpful and friendly.

    A nice and cozy room in the vibrant centre of Catania and at the same time extremely quiet. The room has everything you need for a short trip in Catania (a nice kitchen, coffee machine...) You can enjoy an included delicious breakfast in a bar close by. The owner deserves a special mention, she was extremely nice and polite, full of tips that made our vacation wonderful.

    A couple of things to keep in mind: Parking can be a bit challenging on the same street, but it's easy to drop off your luggage and find a spot just a couple of streets away, which isn't too far. Also, the hotel has four floors without an elevator, so if you have heavy luggage, it might be a bit of a struggle. The breakfast is basic, served at a nearby café with a voucher for a drink and a viennoiserie.

    We had a great stay at Dimora dei Minoriti! The bedroom was absolutely spotless, with elegant and tasteful decor that made the space feel both comfortable and stylish. The communication with the manager was very easy through messages, which made the whole experience stress-free. The location is unbeatable, right in the heart of the city center, making it convenient to explore all the best attractions. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a lovely, well-located spot to stay!

    It is very well located. Near Via Etna and it has everything you need. Also, it has all the amentities for cooking. Milena is a very good host. The only downside, we had some issues with the hot water, in 5 minutes the water turned cold and we had to wait couple minutes to take a bath again.

    The 100 steps up to the 4th floor for some people will be a challenge if not able bodied … it’s a hike with cases but we were ok…

    *Carla was a wonderful host, communicated all the time. *Great central location. *Entry instructions were easily explained by phone, videos etc. *Room was beautiful, clean and had everything we needed. Decorated to a v high standard. *Recommended a lovely restaurant, worth the visit. *We turned up as they started celebrations for - The Festival of Saint Agatha (Italian: La festa di sant'Agata; Sicilian: A fest' 'i sant'Àjita) is the most important religious festival of Catania, Sicily, commemorating the life of the city's patron saint, Agatha of Sicily. *The streets were closed not long after, so maybe best to be a made aware of that or you would not have been able to get to the property, thousands of people easily in the town, my OH thinks about 60k-80k people but we loved the atmosphere and the fireworks were incredible.

    Yes, this is a top floor and stairs might seem really long. Not a problem for us but if you travel with some heavy luggage it may be a challenge to get into an apartment.

    I can confirm everything I could find in previous guests' opinions. But still it's not enough to express how valuable Clara's dedication and commitment was. Clara was open to help us with various issues through the whole stay, she was much more like local pal than just a host. Thanks Clara !!!

    The only thing to consider is that the apartment is upstairs and there is no elevator. There are a lot of stairs. This suited me well.

    As an accommodation this property was excellent. The reception and service was excellent. Everything worked great with Clara. The location of the accommodation was excellent, all the city attractions were within walking distance. Basic coffee/roll breakfast was served in the cafe downstairs.

    The room is very big, comfortable and clean. Beautifully designed. It even has its own kitchen inside. The bathroom is also very spacious. Location is great and central, just a minute away from Via Etnea. And at the same time it is very quiet and calm. Nothing disturbs your night sleep. Breakfast is at the nearby pastry shop, situated right on Via Etnea. It is a pleasure to drink a cup of cappuccino there, together with a croissant with pistachio or something else from their large selection of delicacies. Clara is very helpful and kind person, always ready to help if you need something. I highly recommend the place and I will for sure stay there again during my next visit in Catania.

    The stairs! We should have asked but maybe a few more coffee pods and not the ginseng ones- they are not coffee.

    Wonderful service from Clara. Clara checked in with us half way through our 5 day stay to check if we needed clean towels or anything else. She was lovely. The space in the apartment was wonderful too. We had a huge room with totally seperate bathroom and kitchen, resulting in a restful sleep if my husband or I needed a coffee or otherwise. Very comfortable bed too.

    It is situated on the top floor so there are a few flights of steps to go up everyday. However, the building itself felt safe and very comfortable and clean. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this apartment to family and friends.

    The location was amazing!! We had everything we needed with all the comforts especially AC which is a must in the summer of Catania, fresh white sheets and a beautiful bathroom. Clara offered complimentary breakfast for our stay each day also.
