We searched for a hotel with free (or reasonably-priced) parking that would allow us easy access to the Catania airport for a flight at noon on the following day. I guess we didn’t search early enough, because there wasn’t much choice, and we settled for this newly-built (and not completed) property about 10 minutes north of downtown (the airport is south of the city), nestled in a dense residential apartment zone. We had to drive through a tangle of streets to get there, and there were few facilities on the property, and nothing to do within walking distance.
The property’s dining and fitness facilities are still being built.
But our room was clean and had all new furniture and kitchen appliances. A great bathroom and shower.
The “safe” was too small to put much into, and since it wasn’t secured into the closet anyway, we didn’t use it.
The property is gated, requiring the front desk or a room key to open the gate for pedestrians or drivers.
This was more of a long-term rental property than a short-stay hotel.
Alessandro at the front desk was more than helpful and friendly.
While it took some time to find the property, it satisfied our needs and we made our flight with plenty of time to spare.
