Put in a room with a toilet that is constantly flushing, main aircon not working AND the split system that was installed in the room didn’t work and clearly needed a service. The Main Street was so noisy that we heard sirens all night and people screaming. It was hotter and stuffier inside than out, it was not comfortable to sleep in there at all. Our young family slept with cold towels over us to try and cool down!
Although the breakfast was small in options, it was the only highlight of our stay. The croissants were delicious.
Thank you, however we will not be returning back.

5 of us girls stayed at OttoMood and our room had 3 single beds and one queen bed. It was perfect. There was a closet to store our belongings and the staff were great to make sure we had fresh towels or we could help our selves. The morning breakfast was simple yet all we needed to start the day. The cappuccinos were good too. The staff were helpful and friendly. Wifi was intermittent, but overall good. Bottle opener in room. Access to a shared kitchen. We left our wine bottles in there over the course of the week and they were never taken. Kettle in room. Cute balcony. High ceilings. Secure building and safe area of Catania right in the center town. Tons of places to eat and within walking distance to the
Fish market, beaches, sightseeing. Slightly noisy at night if you sleep with balcony door open but quiet when closed. Great value!

Great location and the staff was amazing. Breakfast was great just with the right food options. Room was very clean and the balcony was beautiful. Surprisingly quiet building considering that is located in a very busy street. The keypad control access make the hotel very safe.

Great comfortable hotel in convenient location. Perfect for a few nights if in Catania. Lots to do in the area and plenty of decent restaurants and shops all within 10 minutes walk. Rooms that front the main road may be a bit noisy for some lighter sleepers, so recommend ear plugs. Beautiful selection of fresh pastries, continental breakfast items and coffee served up by the owners themselves every morning. Owners are extremely friendly and helpful also. Would definitely stay here again.

Great place as it is very accessible, we liked everything about it including proximity to transportation and restaurants. There is also a park nearby.
What we were not impressed about was the continental breakfast which lacked fruit even!
Ribi, was amazing and it is a whole new concept of running a service
