The apartment was nice and clean. Everything was there what we needed . It is in the heart of Ortigia. With all its advantages, it is unfortunately noisy also because it is on the ground floor and has thin walls. If you area a light sleeper it might be a problem. It does smell a little humid in the apartment. We enjoyed the area very much. There is a supermarket just a round the corner and plenty of restaurants and sights. Everything is in walking distance.
