The place is spacious and very very comfortable. There is bedroom, a kitchen-living room area plus a bathroom. There is a small tv (no smart), WiFi, and AC. We stayed during winter, so we were grateful for having AC :D! The hosts are super friendly and let us stay the entire check-out day, and being winter, they saved us :D!
The only thing we did not like was the shower. There was little to no water and the temperature was a little cold (at least for me).

Great location in Ortigia: quiet and central, close to bars, restaurants, shops, and the sea. The apartment was very clean and easy to reach, and the communication with the host Emanuela was very good: responsive and with clear and detailed instructions. Parking in Ortigia can be complicated/expensive, but there are shuttle buses connecting outside parking lots with the center.

Cosy apartment in a Great Location Full of amenities. Also a very kind and responsive host!
Wifi did not work and there was no coverage in the apartment. Glass wall dividing the bathroom and bedroom made everything visible & audible.

The location is very central from all amenities and it gives you the local feel. The hosts are really nice and responsive. Good value for money. There is a private car park within walking distance which is doable if you don't have anything heavy to carry such as luggages.
It is a bit difficult to reach upon arrival and departure if you have more than one luggage and a baby in tow as it was in our case. Most of the parking spaces are only for residents and not easily accessible unless you opt for the private car park close by but still you'd need to walk with your luggages so if you have more than one luggage won't be that easy. One suggestion, is to perhaps add an electric kettle for those who have small babies and need to boil water for milk ☺️

It was quiet and exactly the same as the photos, location was great . Nice a and comfortable
Not the problem of the apartment but it’s hard to get a mobile signal because of the small streets

We had a great experience here. The host was very responsive the room was clean and had a nice decor. The location is in an alley but always felt very safe and very central to the tourist spots. Overall we think this was an excellent room. value per money I would rate it more than 10 if I could.

An amazing room in the heart of Ortigia! We love the location of the room and the kindness of the owners! They were always very nice with us and they recommend us a lot of fantastic places for having lunch or a lot of activities for doing in Ortigia and Siracusa!
