BAD is by far the perfect place to stay - it's great value, fun, fresh and stylish, great location (stones throw from the fish market) and the kitchen is a treat - if you stay in the mini apt, which is not mini at all and even has its very own balcony! the owners were so lovely and helpful and...

We enjoyed our time at BAD very much. We stayed in the cool roof top apartment with own private terrace. We loved the design of the spacious apartment and felt very comfortable. Only downside ... terrace apparently not regularly cleaned ... and the shower needs improvement but we nevertheless had a great time. We are also used to the Italian... More

we stayed at the apartment (kitchen and bathroom and our own private terrace included!) and it was absolutely lovely. the decoration is lovely and it felt like being at home. only a couple of minutes away from the main square. only downside was the shower, as it was terrible. we could barely get any water out and we could only...

My girlfriend and I booked this B&B on the strength of a review in the Guardian newspaper, although I don't think the reviewer stayed in room number 9. This was an appartment styled room but without the kitchen, in what I can only describe as a loft. I couldn't stand up at one end of the room and we both... More

This place LOOKS fantastic. The original art and funny curiosities in our room completely took us in. However, it turned out to be something of a let-down. The bathroom was small, dank, and with a faulty toilet, which broke whilst we were there. They claimed this was our fault, and went on to charge us for the room we had... More

BAD Catania is one of the best B&Bs I've stayed at. It's obvious that Alessandro and Giulia thought hard about how best to use their space and funky decor to create a place that was a bit out of the ordinary. I stayed in the mini apartment, which for the price was a really good deal. The apartment has a... More

If you are looking for something different, something with soul and personality, and avoid anonymous and sterile run-of-the-mill hotels, BAD is for you! Excellent location just next to the fish market, wonderful service, and an atmosphere that sticks with you, we will not look for accommodation in Catania again. We - a family of three - came to Catania looking... More

We just needed a place to crash for one night in Catania. BAD had a good price, their website was very informative, all the way down to which bus to take from the airport. It made everything so easy. The entrance can be a bit intimidating for Americans used to brand-new posh hotels, but everything is great on the inside.... More

Stayed here one night for the first night of our little honeymoon road trip around Siciliy, and really wished we had time to stay longer, both for BAD and for Catania. We'd booked the apartment (90 euros) because it comes with its own private terrace overlooking Etna, but it was a bit of a waste not to be making full... More
