Coming at the end of our tour of Sicily our short stay in Syracuse might have been an anti climax. Far from it! The light and space of Ortigia together with the friendly, vibrancy of life in the streets was wonderful. And Mario and his apartment added to our enjoyment. He is the perfect host.... welcoming us on arrival, explaining everything to us and even providing some extra provisions too. The flat was spacious, clean, well equipped and comfortable. A great experience. Highly recommended.
