Had coffee machine, fridge & microwave. Nice terrace with tables & chairs.
Very noisy at night. Very busy road hearing cars & people most of the night. You could also hear other guests coming & going up & down the staircases at night. We didn’t get much sleep. The mattress was very hard & uncomfortable. There’s only air conditioning in 1 bedroom so the other bedrooms were roasting! There are 4 flights of stone steps (57 steps) & no elevator or help with luggage!
We loved B&B Opera, and hope to visit again. Lovely accommodations, friendly, helpful host, excellent staff, fabulous central location. 10 out of 10!!
Fantastic location with a beautiful room. Loved the barley tea which seems to be a popular local drink. Would definitely stay again
Very busy street outside - this was fine for us but could be a little noisy
Ate several breakfast very good, Constantine gave us great advice on sights and arranged tours to Mt. Etna, Taramino and Syracuse. Neighborhood was a good location for seeing Catania. Enjoyed the place, centrally located near the Bellini Opera House - worth visiting even if you probably need to reserve seats to see an opera.
Catania is a busy and looks a little rough, but very safe. Traffic is busy, drivers fast, but courteous in stopping when pedestrians cross. We felt at first we took our lives in our hands every time we crossed, but after a day or so, we simply stepped off the curb and drivers stopped or swerved around us.
The location is really good between the centro storico and train/bus station. Our room was well sized and only on the first floor which was good to minimise the stairs. There is a little garden courtyard inside you can use freely, which is a nice touch. Constantine the host is very warm and welcoming.
We managed to make the shower leak every time despite doing our best to close the door properly. The communal corridor and stairs are a bit gloomy and grimy.
Don't judge a book by its cover. The stay was exceptional, staff was very friendly and willing to accommodate any needs. Its very close to piazza del Duomo, plenty of restaurants and places to visit!
Location can be difficult to find parking, use public transportation if possible. There's quite a few floors of stairs, but nothing too challenging.
Interesting, spacious rooms and excellent location. Communal outdoor/indoor spaces looked inviting. The host was accommodating and helpful.
There were a lot of stairs which made getting luggage in was a bit challenging.
The property is well maintained and our room was very clean. Constantino was very helpful in getting us checked in and acclimated to Catania. His son Alberto was also very helpful and had a wonderful personality. We asked for the lowest floor possible as my wife does not do well with a lot of stairs and they accommodated us with the room on their 1st level (you go up the entrance steps, about 30 t...
Nothing, just know before you book there is no elevator. You are very close to restaurants and little sundry markets.Read more

People coming to stay were sometimes very noisy. But all in all it was good!
