Thanks to public means of transport, which pass into Umberto Street (an halt is just under the B&B) or nearby the B&B, is possible to reach the most decentralized destinations, like the railway-station and the extra urban bus-station, the airport and, above all, the seaside and the different beaches that are characteristic of the Catania's coast: from the lave-stone cliffs, forged by antic Etna's eruptions (and in summer equipped with practical "solarium"), to the gilded sandy expanse "Playa".
All of these characteristic, apart from the typical family reception, make the B&B PICONE the best place for a tourist or business holiday, especially for visitors which arrive in Catania by train or by aerial, because in the moment of the reception could take advantage from taxies parked nearby the station. While for visitors which like travel by car, they could find lots of very big (payment) car-parks.
