“Avoid at any price.”
+noting
−In fact we didn't stay in property since we immediately left it. The reason: simple - one of bedrooms was missing, therefore the property wasn't suitable for us. The so called second bedroom was in fact above the kitchen, build with some strange materials and a stairway in bad condition to reach. It was dangerous to use. I need to advice potential clients to check with google maps the surrounding area as well as it is bad. I have to clearly declare that we have vary bad communication with Anna (the host), who, in my opinions, is crystal clear with it's misleading listing (please pay attention the payment is non-refundable, in advance, so zero chances to recollect money back). so in short we lost EUR 100 and had very bad experience that spoiled our vacation.

“Very good”
+The host was very friendly. She gave us tons of information about restaurants, attractions many tips etc. The place is maybe 5-10 minutes walk from the city centre. The parking (real one) is just 50 meters from the door which is really good luck there.
−The furniture and equipment require renovation. Some basic kitchenware is missing. At some point, we found there was no lighter and we could not use a cooker. But this kind of thing seems to be typical for Sicily and that was expected - so I cant complain. I'm pretty sure we can ask to fix some small things and it would be done. But we did not care much. As always in Sicily "wifi works but it was broken just yesterday" :)

“Super friendly, authentic local experience and so SO helpful!!”
+Anna is an incredible, personable host. Sincere, very friendly and kind, and super super helpful!! She gave us great local information (I think the hidden gem of a local restaurant she suggested was the best experience I had in Sicily). Her place is simple and charming, it felt like being at home and for us we'd much rather have this experience than in a hotel. Very local and authentic neighbourhood, and actually really well located. Short walk to the centre and short drive to airport. Couldn't have asked for anything more!! Anna really made the experience, and she is so knowledgeable. We can't wait to come back and take a tour or something with her. We wouldn't bother looking anywhere else in Catania, that's for sure!
−Nothing !

“Exceptional”
+The location of the place is excellent because it is very close to all tourist sites in the center of Catania. Pia, the host, was an excellent guide of the city, told us what to visit and where to eat. She was very special. We definitely recommend her and her place!

“Good nigth stay over nearby airport”
+The host was very welcoming and helped us with parking. Bed were comfortable. All worked fine for a night stay over for a family with two kids. The apartment is very close to the airport which was important for us.
−The location is in a narrow street. There is a bit of a night life noise.

“Perfect”
+Everything was perfect. In a city full of friendly people, the host of La Salette, Anna, is the friendliest we met. She did everything to make sure our stay was fantastic. Although not as modern as some other places we stayed, La Salette has an old style charm and a very homely feel to it. We will definitely stay there again. A huge thank you to Anna for all she did for us throughout our stay! The best value for money in Catania. Highly recommended.
−Cleanliness of the streets. There are no laws regarding the picking up of dog poop but this was not the fault of La Salette and we found it to be everywhere and not just in this particular area. It wouldn't put us off returning though.
