Rob and Christina are charming hosts. Their breakfasts are terrific. The location is near the castle.

The only negative is that our bathroom was not en suite.

The price was very reasonable, and our room was very charming.

You will be happy you stayed here.

Frankly we only stayed in a Catania
b and b to facilitate our flight the next day as it is fairly convenient for the airport. So we arrived mid evening and left early morning before normal breakfast time.

Rob, a fellow Brit and fellow former South London resident did everything possible to make our stay as pleasant and trouble-free as anyone could including setting-up an excellent DIY breakfast which owing to timings we barely had time to eat.

The room was large and pleasant and the cost about right.

Access to the room via a few doors was slightly daunting and identifying the buulding location a little challenging too. We had a shared bathroom which although at the end of a long corridor proved to be no issue re our timings but might be for others with a more normal schedule.

Personally my wife and I weren't crazy about the style of decor. Note everywhere clean tidy and in excellent condition just not our taste but I know it would be for most people... It was what I would call a bit 'spooky' and rather ethnic and kind of Beatles psychedelic but some will love it. It made me feel somewhat 'spooked' is the only word I can use, rather put my karma at little out of sync!

The location is very central and to the castle where Rob recommended an excellent inexpensive buffet restaurant nearby (thanks).

Can't quite give an excellent but definitely a good is deserved.

Tip - trust Rob to arrange your taxi to the airport. It would have been 18 euros via him whereas we paid 25 fixing it ourselves.

Our holiday in Sicily was truly kickstarted by Rob an Christina who own 5-balcony b&b. Both were enormous welcoming, available at any time and eager to tell us all the whereabouts and hidden secrets of Catania and further inwards Sicily.
Apart from the hosts the rooms are absolutely wonderful with its 5m(!) high ceilings!!

The location is good, quite close to the citycentre. The rooms itself are AMAZING, so beautiful. Actually the whole bed and breakfast is decorated with so much style and everything is really clean. The breakfast is big and really tasty. The highlight for us were for sure the owners; Rob and Cristina thank you for your warm welcome, help and nice talks!

We very much enjoyed our stay with Rob & Christina. We had the room shown in the AirBNB advert and it was large, comfortable and clean. The breakfasts were excellent and a great opportunity to converse with the other guests & hosts. Rob & Christina were fountains of information and advice on where to visit or eat; the recommended list of eateries was particularly useful to us.
Thanks you Rob & Christina, it was great.

Room tip: room 3 is the largest.
