Daniele is an incredibly gracious and helpful host, ready to help out with any questions or concerns we had as soon as possible. He also kindly offered to pick us up from the bus station and show us around Ortigia. The location is great, with everything close by. Daniele offered us some prosecco to celebrate New Year with, the bed was comfortable, and having a real fireplace was fantastic, while the rooftop terrace was a lovely place to bring in 2018. One concern we did have is that the towels and linens were a little old and worn, and could be replaced with newer items. The stairs were a little difficult to navigate with our bags too. But otherwise, we really enjoyed staying at his apartment and loved our time in Ortigia. Thanks again, Daniele!
