Museum like place in Catania with awesome service
This B&B is one of the best places I have ever stayed. The apartment is like a museum. Biagio, the owner provides outstanding service, that I have not seen anywhere. He will treat you with the best service and advice on what to do. He even provided us a dinner for each day we stayed for free. I have been to almost every country in Europe many times and I have not seen a better service from anyone. I highly recommend staying at B&B II Caravagio. You will not be disappointed.

Great!
I stayed here over the summer and was pleasantly surprised by how friendly and accommodating everybody was at this urban B&B. I arrived from the airport quite late on a week night and I was welcomed in with a warm smile – I woke up the next day to a thoughtful breakfast. A good experience. Thanks again!

The staff is super friendly and helpful! Breakfast is exactly what you'd expect at a cheap B&B--coffee, croissant, fruit. My only complaint would be that the room I booked was a "Double Bed, Street View" and I received a room with two twin beds and no street view. The guy had been so nice to me, that I just let it slide--I really couldn't complain at under $30/night. But 5 stars would be receiving the same service I received and also receiving the room advertised.

The hotel contacted us on the day of our booking to inform that there was an overbooking and directed us to another B&B that was definitely less of the quality for the "same price" that Caravaggio arranged. Since it was on the date of our arrival, I did not have time to search for another place, but if I were to make my reservation, I would have NOT selected the place we stayed in.

What a place, must be seen!
Biagio is one of the best hosts we have come across in all of our travels around the world. Our time in Catania was hit or miss and we booked Caravaggio last minute, Biagio welcomed us to his B&B and bent over backwards to make us feel at home in the city. Ok, so it's not a conventional B&B that you would get in the UK or other parts of the world but... it does exactly what it says on the tin! A bed and a breakfast! Breakfast was laid out for us to sit and converse with other guests instead to keeping ourselves to ourselves which was a nice touch and if Biagio offers you Iced tea in the morning, HAVE IT! You won't be disappointed... Our room was ornate with grand aspects and perfectly over the top. If we ever feel the need to retry Catania, we would definitely rebook with Biagio!

Palazzo che merita il soggiorno
B&B in posizione strategica, con la fermata della metro a pochi passi. Situato alle spalle di corso Italia, equidistante tra il mare e via Etnea. Stile unico di una Sicilia nobiliare, ma soprattutto il gestore Biagio ti fa sentire a casa e ti coccola, preoccupandosi per ogni aspetto dalla colazione, ai giri da fare per Catania. Persona splendida, disponibile e simpatica.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
La mia esperienza è stata estremamente negativa per quanto riguarda la struttura non l'attenzione del titolare nel cercare una soluzione. Non ci è stata assegnata la camera prenotata ma una camera molto piccola in un soppalco con bagno privato senza bidet. Di sera ci siamo accorti che la camera era infestata dagli scarafaggi; il condizionatore era con le alette rotte; il box doccia era rotto. Abbiamo abbandonato la struttura in piena notte evidenziando i problemi al titolare che ci ha riprotetto in un altro B&B di catania nel quale ci siamo spostati intorno alle 01:00 di notte Il titolare si è mostrato dispiaciuto e si è attivato per trovare una soluzione per quanto deve porre rimedio a quanto riscontrato per salvaguardare il B&B che si trova in una ottima posizione per visitare Catania.
