This is a real gem for a stay in Syracuse, and in particular, in Ortigia - it's located at the very entry point for discovering the island, but is conveniently hidden, in a typical narrow little alley - so as to keep the noise away. Although Ortigia is listed as a traffic-limited area, even if you come by car, as we did, there are plenty of free parking spots to park just near the apartment and Sebastiano will show you. He is absolutely an amazing host, who meets you personally ( a rarity these days) and helps you with everything you might need during your stay. The house is super cute, it's just what you expect from your Airbnb to be - a tasteful mixture of traditional elements and structures and fine modern touches, details, and amenities. If Sebastiano's apartment is available for your stay, do not look any further.
