The location is very good, very central and walkable to all the seeings at the old town. Some good restaurants around and easy to access from the airport. Catania is very small city centre. The room has everything that we needed for a short stay, all good and new.

We had a very short stay but everything that we needed was there, maybe a bigger shower space if possible, really small, and i'm a big guy so theres that. But nothing that compromised the experience, after all we just need a shower and a bed to sleep. Vacation time!

The place is in a good arra compared to other districts of Catania, just a few minutes walk from the biggest shopping street. Even it was winter, but the AC warmed up the room quite well.

There could be a few cutlaries, mugs and a water heater to warm yourself up in winter, or a small fridge to store food.. The room faced the street, so it was a bit noisy at night. Some parts of the painting of the ceiling were falling off.

Location was great!!! Super close to the main areas of Catania. Spacious room with balcony, private toilet which was cleaned every day and so could be the room but we chosen to leave it since was only 3 night stay. Friendly hosts and easy check in.

There is no free parking around the area, we always ended up finding in the next street "via e.a. pantano" is paid parking in the street but some how usually there is some spot for parking

The accommodation is great and worth more than it costs! I rented the “Cefalu” room and enjoyed the comfortable bed, quietness, good air conditioning and cooling, and a private bathroom within the room. The apartment was clean and tidy. The location is more than excellent.

The lack of an elevator can be a challenge for those carrying large suitcases. Also, the Wi-Fi in the room is not accessible.

Spacious and well-lit apartment in Catania. There is a balcony that leads out to the back streets, so it's pretty quiet for the city centre. You can reach the market, the park and the Duomo easily on foot. For Catania, which is full of small, low apartments, this is a really nice and not expensive place.

The host was sometimes not easy to reach.

It looks like a magic place, it's relatively hidden, without name on the door and you need a code to pass the door.. my daughters enjoy the magic of the open doors with a code.. it is an easy welcome without physical reception.

Loss of previous communication over the entry to the residence, I was without internet and the residence had no name on the door, just a number. I reached to contact the host by a nearby shop and he explains me that I needed a WiFi networks to see the code to entry..

Close proximity to the pedestrian part of Via Etnea in the street facing Giardino Bellini.Paid garaged parking could be found nearby in Via Romeo.

Very low wifi signal

Nice location, close to Villa Bellini garden. I checked into apartment in the middle of the night. It was easy due to owner's instructions. The room was clean. Also I had access to a private bathroom across corridor with free toiletries, hairdryer etc. All like described. The stuff is very friendly. Thank you.

A kitchen like place (a place with kettle, coffee machine, sink, ) was in an abandoned state. There are a lot cleaning things but not for tea.

Room was lovely, and is very central for shops and restaurants. Lovely to have a balcony

The entrance and stairs to the apartments (which is not part of residenia Umberto so this not a comment about them) was very dirty. But don't be put off as it's very clean when you get to the apartments

Perfect location. Authentic and spacious rooms with a nice view balcony. Clean and with all necessary facilities. The bed and pillows were amazing, I had good night sleep.

Noise from neighbouring rooms. But it was ok, not that loud.
