Photos do not match the rooms. Outdated, cracked walls, beds are very old and can feel the shape where people have been sleeping for years. Fridge barely works and needs a chain to keep closed. Rooster, dogs barking and planes all night.

OK for the last night stay before departure flight
The hotel is quite worn, but clean. Beds reasonably comfortable, water in the shower warm, etc. Do not expect much from breakfast. Located outside the city on a thoroughfare, there's not much places to eat, but we were concerned about parking and proximity to the airport - it is indeed a few minutes drive. Definitely on the plus side - friendly service at the reception.

No water in the hotel in the evening. Poor air conditioning. Beware of restaurant… found aluminum foil in the pasta and not so much as an apology. Wine listed on the menu was not stocked. Substitute lauded as good and local was awful. The receptionist was the only breath if fresh air. Stay away!
Honestly I expected a better and cleaner room given the price we paid. Including breakfast a 100 euro stay calls for a better service and level of cleanliness.
Stayed because close to airport, however was 2 bus rides to terminal or €22 taxi ride. Air con not effective very little sleep. Also barking dog in adjacent room. Restaurant overpriced. No facilities nearby. ‘Private beach’ is shared with very run down unfriendly butlins type operation across a main road. Good for business travellers with own transport, avoid for vacation or airport
Only 10 minutes from airport so convenient for late night flight. Basic but great for overnight stay. Clean and comfortable. Breakfast fine. Pizzeria next door open late and was a good find.

Nice friendly staff , close to the beach, gas station and a restaurant next to it , parking available , breakfast available at 5 euros
First the positives: clean hotel, friendly staff and excellent dining room (one of the beat seafood meals of our trip to Sicily.) Negatives: 21€ taxi to airport (no shuttle) and a dodgy, dirty neighbourhood (located just past what apears to be a jail.) Probably would have cancelled and stayed in Central Catania, but hotel's cancellation policy prevented that. We had adjoining rooms that were clean and comfortable.
The location is terrible; the room has a weird smell; the restaurant downstairs has different menus for locals and tourists and the food is overpriced.

The staff very friendly, extremely helpful, and the best part about the hotel.
I didn’t like that the bathroom window wouldn’t close allowing bugs to fly in, and the flimsy shower curtain clinging to you.
Overall was a good stay.
The staff were very attentive to our needs. The restaurant was nice and clean. There was a lot of parking behind the hotel. Very easy access to the private beaches.
Excellent location, right across the road from the beach. You get a pass to the beach for staying at the hotel. Room was small but very clean and the bathroom had been recently updated. Elevator is incredibly small, just enough room for 2 people and 2 bags to cram in. Fuel station right in front of the property, a nice amenity for those who are returning a rental car. Gated parking. We had dinner at the restaurant -- it was excellent.
