Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
I was bite from bed bags on my body too much.
Very dirty included the service minded is poor. Especially, the older wife-house is rude.
The staff at City-In Hostel was very welcoming and the overall atmosphere was nice. It's just a 2 minutes walk to Piazza Duomo. I would recommend a stay here!
Loved the artwork on the property, friendly staff checked me in and made me feel welcome in Catania right away, it was my first time visiting so they recommended me some good things to do such as visit mount Etna. I wouldn't mind staying here again, social area met some cool people from all around the world. All in all this was a positive experience (:
Good place for short stays or budget accommodation. Close to centre and bus services. Plenty of shops, bars and restaurants within walking distance. Facilities were good and cleaned daily. Staff were very helpful, the head cleaner is a bit abrupt but she just wants to get the cleaning done on time.
It is a nice spot, especially traveling alone. Very inexpensive dormitory accommodations. Staff and guests were friendly and relaxed, and common areas are pleasant. The area around is excellent, near a cooperative bookstore and wine bar and the excellent museum at Castillo Ursino. Very congenial—not much privacy and no frills lodgings, but a good experience.
For the price it is ok for 1 night. Super tiny room which had a very odd odor which we couldn't get rid off so we had to keep the window open all night, which resulted in very limited amount of sleep due to the noise outside.

Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort
Un friendly
Staff was unfriendly and never spoke got bitten in the bed had to ask for ac to be put on come into room all hours bed was to low to get in
We booked this private room for one night as was cheaper to stay closer to the airport, than to use an airport shuttle service from our original location.
We weren’t expecting much due to the cheap nature of the space, but basic and clean accommodation should be minimum.
The bed itself was extremely uncomfortable, we could not use the thick pillows. There was grime all over the floor, we actually wore shoes inside after I noticed my white socks becoming discoloured wearing inside. The window was broken and could not be closed properly so all the noise from outside at night came into our room. There were people slamming doors and talking for hours at night outside our window/in the hostel.
The hostel is located in a dodgy looking area.
Would be suitable for very young travellers who are not intending to sleep much…

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
They didn't answer to me at phone at 9 p.m! It was impossible for me to get there even though I had paid before. I had to find an another accomodation for the night.
Place is ok, stuff od cery nice! Matrace can kill you during one night. Its like you sleep in nest. Its impossible 😭 But the worst the loud. No privacy at all! Sounds like somebody peeing in your room at night. Sleeping and your hostel
impossible to connect. Its 3 just for place near center and cleaning. Level of noise its -1
