Property was well furnished and clean. Location was more out the way and surroundings were more run down, but that’s expected given the price

The apartment is very modern, cute and clean. I was able to walk to most attractions and lots of options for food.

The residence was lovely, aircon in both bedrooms and living space was great for getting back from a hot day out. The appartment was very clean and they even let us drop our bags off in the appartment early before cleaning was finished which was very kind of them. The lady that let us in was lovely and we had a free bottle of wine on arrival. The appartment had a washing maching which was a life saver, the balcony was a nice size. The walk to the main tourist area past Bellini park is about 15 mins, which our kids (6 and 9) were fine with. Catania was a beautiful city and we had a fab time. An uber from the residence to the sandy beach was €20-€30. We would recommend staying here.

Bugs in property on first night. Bug spray provided by cleaner. Reception did not understand my issue, luckily cleaner was cleaning other rooms and helped me.
Further issue with cockroaches in property. Again reception could not understand my full issue and when they eventually did they advised cleaner had sorted it and removed cockroach. After returning to the property and been advised it was sorted. The cockroach was still there (the cockroach was 1.5 inches bug as well!) So they either lied to me or did not understand what i was asking them to confirm.
Further issue. Power tripped in property. I only had tv, washing machine on and the air con, receptions answer was Don't have the air con on whilst i am washing my clothes! (During a heatwave!) very poor response. Very disappointed.
Property looks nice on pictures but i would not recommend staying here and i would not stay here again.
Only saving grace was the lovely Marina who checked me in and helped with some of my issues.

The apartment was clean, all the facilities worked , including the air conditioning which as great. Unfortunately the lift broke down so carrying suitcases up / down four flights of marble staircase was a challenge . Also be aware there are three sets of codes to get into the apartment and to lock / unlock the door of the apartment took a day or so to master it. Luckily we got help from others in the apartment. Admittedly we were tired after our flight and there is alot of information to take in. Lesson, before agent leaves, make sure you go through the entey codes youself to make sure you can get in/out the building.

We were in the apartment, a family of 4. The apartment is very small in the photos, it looks big and spacious
The pictures are very misleading
The shower is really small, you can hardly move in it
We had a problem that there was no hot water to shower when we returned from a trip in the evening and it was only fixed the next evening
In our opinion, the service is very poor
They said we would receive compensation and did not give any compensation
Good things to say:
The kitchen is spacious and equipped
The living room is spacious
One spacious and comfortable bedroom
Their service is kind and nice people

The manager and the house cleaning staff were wonderful and very helpful. Would have liked to have more supplies for cooking, like a good bread knife, cutting board and maybe a drip coffee maker.

A lot of trash on the street and a lot of young kids at the park across the street all night making loud noise.

A perfect apartment with all kitchen equipment. A TV and comfortable sofa wit kitchen downstairs and bedroom with a bathroom upstairs. A very quiet and safe place to stay. We did love it.

Overall, I did not enjoy my stay fully. First night I had to take a cold shower. However the communication was great when I reported the issue (They told me I had to wait until the water warms up again). The water still would get cold after 5-8 minutes. The following nights I was attacked my gnats which caused severe itching and swelling on my arm. My arm swelled up so bad from allergic reaction and it was the size of a tennis ball. I am not sure where the bugs came from. Both me and fiance got bit up while we were sleeping during the night. We had to travel to Paris after leaving and get pharmacy help from this issue (Which messed up some of our travel experience) I am still healing from all the bug bites on my left arm currently. My fiance got bit on his hand and legs. Parking was a big issue, I had to drive around more than once to find parking becuase the parking provided was taken by other people in the area thorughout the day. Communication was great with this place was not what i thought it would be.

The apartment was simply perfect: clean, with a view at the Etna, close to the city center, in a lively a safe neighbourhood. The apartment was very confortable and had everything you need. Great WiFi! The staff is always available and willing to help you. They booked me a tour to the Etna. Just a great place to stay. I highly recommended it.

Nice and clean, but we had the smallest room. Tiny space and the sofa wasn´t realy new. Othrevise very comfy and all comunication was great. We would come back again, but to different room.
3.0 / 10.0
The staff were terrific, prompt, and helpful. I would stay at this brand again, but definitely not this particular location. The building itself was dark and sketchy. The elevator tiny and gave a jerky ride. We held our breath each time we used it. The apartment was interior facing with no window on the bedroom floor so it was dark. The shower was so small you have to squat to try and soap up your legs. It’s impossible to bend- pretty much a telephone booth. While it’s nicely renovated, this particular apartment in this building was not an enjoyable stay. I did go to the front desk at their more central location and that building seemed much more comfortable to stay in.

Amazing stay for couples. Especially those seeking a quiet more relaxing vacation. City had lots great food recommended by our host- and nice beaches. The apartment was absolutely stunning and in great condition. Clean and smoke free.

Good location. Right in a residential area. Bus stop is just 1 minute walk away. The interior can use some sprice up. I do like the wrap around balcony. Makes the facility very airy.

Can't speak highly enough of the whole experience. In truth it doesn't look much from the outside but the apartments were clean, tidy and spacious -great for our needs. We were a group of 4 mature gentlemen who had an apartment each to ensure an undisturbed nights sleep!
Great welcome by Sabrina who helped our planning and suggesting restaurants and activities for our 3 day visit and couldn't have been more helpful and friendly. Ferrini had arranged the airport transfer and booked the 'Etna' experience trip.
All in all a great stay- maybe another day needed to do all the things we would like to have done.

amazing apartment clean..
short 15 mins direct walk to the old town.,
one thing to note. the apartment is on the top floor of a building. and the lifts are very old.. Lift was damaged when we check in but the chap ( Dino) help us with our bag.
also you need to shut the lift doors after you exit. many inconsiderate guests did not shut the door and the lift stays stuck at the last floor landing.

Heart of Catania. You really feel the Catanian way of life. Great place. Loved the elevator!

Well presented 2 bedroom apartment was spotlessly clean throughout. The narrow stairs within the narrow stairs within the apartment could pose a problem for anyone with mobility issues.
The apartments are well located offering easy access to all that Catania has to offer. It made an ideal home for our seven days in which we used Catania as a base to explore the area.
The sevice offered by the management was very attentive and friendly.

Great apartment, clean and safe. Within walking distance to Via Etnea - the main shopping street - and to a variety of the impressive buildings and monuments. Excellent Service from the Ferrini Home Staff,. No physical reception, communication via mail or phone - but everything worked perfectly. .

We had a lovely stay in Ferrini Home 150, the staff were very helpful and friendly and we had no problems at all with anything in the apartment. Central location so very easy to get around and only a bus ride away from the airport.
4.0 / 10.0
This was a great little apartment that was very clean, comfortable and great for the price. The apartment was only about a 15 minute walk from the city centre. My only complaint was that there is no sign indicating Ferrini Residence on the outside of the building and no onsite office to report to when we arrived. The building is locked behind a number of gates and we were unsure what to do to check in. Other than this the staff were lovely and very helpful.

We were warmly welcomed by our hosts, who provided lots of helpful info about the apartment and the local area. Pros: The apartment was very clean, and any requests were promptly addressed. Cons: While centrally located in Catania, the surrounding neighborhood is not the cleanest... And the 2 bedroom we had is on 2 levels connected by a narrow metal staircase - this can be somewhat awkward.
2.5 / 10.0
This is a great apartment at a very affordable price. Not easy to find as no signage. Not a hotel they are apartments. Well appointed, clean, good beds and good location. Highly recommended.

The flat is really lovely and well equipped.
It is around 15min walk to the town centre. But the location was just perfect. Close to the supermarket and not too noisy.
The bed for me was a bit uncomfortable. It was 2 single beds put together. But that did not cloud my stay at this amazing flat. I would definitely recommend and come back myself too..
