    “Came through in a pinch”

    I got stranded in Catania by SurPrice rental car company. Rigel Hotel had a single room available at an affordable rate at the last minute. It was clean, comfortable, and really came through. Helpful check in staff, good bathroom. The blue light in the window was odd, and the bed wasn’t my favorite. But overall a good value.

    “Exceptional”

    It is conveniently located near the bus terminal and station. The front desk recommended a delicious seafood osteria nearby. The guest rooms are non-smoking, but there is a smoking area in the courtyard.
