Great location but the hotel had cracks on the wall and the shower wasn’t the best

Hotel is ok, old but clean and nicely located We did hear a lot of outside noises but nothing that kept us awake. Most of the staff were friendly. We had some spotty maid service, they lightly cleaned our room but didn’t change our sheets for the entire 10 day stay

The location is brilliant, downtown San Diego close to every thing. The checking in process was smooth and professional but the receptionist guy was very grim, he gave me the feeling that I am not welcome at all. The room is elegant, impeccably clean and the bed is super, but the air conditioner is rather loud. I gave my greetings to the house keeping as they did an excellent job every day. The complimentary morning coffee was perfect and very good. Upon checkout the receptionists were very nice ladies. All in all a very good hotel to stay in san diego.

Lo único bueno es la ubicación, en pleno centro de Catania. Cuando llegamos, no había llaves donde nos habían dicho. Llamamos varias veces por teléfono y mandamos varios WhatsApp y no nos contestaba nadie. Finalmente bajó la recepcionista cuando ya se marchaba a su casa y nos dio las llaves. Si hubiese decidido bajar una hora después, hubiésemos esperado una hora más. El baño está sucio. La mampara de la ducha está sucia. El WC tiene una especie de caja o cubículo séptico donde va a parar el agua sucia y que cada poco hace ruido. No se puede tirar ni papel higiénico dentro. Los apliques del baño estaban rotos o les faltaban piezas. La cisterna no tenía pulsador. Nos alojaron frente a la recepción y se oye todo, es imposible dormir a partir de las 8:00 horas. Al estar en pleno centro (via Etnea), hay mucho ruido y se escucha todo durante toda la noche, las ventanas no insonorizan absolutamente nada y no se puede dormir. El edificio es muy viejo, las escaleras poco iluminadas y llenas de trastos. Aunque lo llamen así, la palabra hotel le viene muy grande. No volveremos.

This was my second stay at Hotel Sofia. The hotel is clean, in a very central spot in Catania, and the staff is helpful. Hotel rooms are super spacious, however, are in need of an upgrade. Quiet at night despite its location.

We stayed 3 nights in this "Hotel" which is not a Hotel. It's a "kind" of B&B. In fact, in what they call the "Hall" which is actually a corridor with armchairs, there isn't even an external bathroom, in fact upon arrival, while I was waiting for my room to be cleaned, I had to go down to the bar below to be able to pee. Room 208 that was assigned to us was a real nightmare: the smell of mold and stagnant water coming from the windowless bathroom is nauseating, so strong as a smell that it invades the entire room. Inside the bathroom there are no plastic or paper cups to place toothbrushes. Like shampoo and shower gel, plastic sachets are usually used as free samples of the products. The room was very dusty, the duvet on the bed (which luckily we didn't use) was embarrassing. The TV is small and placed so far from the bed that to watch it you need the supplied binoculars. The wardrobe was swinging and we were afraid to put our clothes in it for fear of it falling on us, in fact we left them in the suitcase. In short, the Overlook in the film The Shining is Disneyland in comparison.

The only positive thing is the strategic location for visiting Catania Center. No parking, forced to use uncomfortable and expensive blue lines....... positioned in the middle of the restricted traffic zone without even being able to unload your luggage. Large but poorly maintained rooms with windows overlooking dirty courtyards etc.

The property was very central and easy to get to places....but finding it and getting in was terrible. If you arrive after 7 it's not good.....
