I like everything! Location, kitchen is well stocked, love their colours and paintings throughout but especially in my room. Natalia is super helpful as are the rest of the staff. Often hard to find a place that doesn't reek of strong cleaning products. This place ticks all the boxes!
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!
this was a good stay for me the bed was cleaned which is most important thing for me, met some nice people people in the common area, kitchen is available for guests to cook & socialise. affordable! see you soon Catania
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 (:

Disliked: Cleanliness
Good location, simple sufficient room, but bed bugs in the room :-(
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.
