We couldn’t have asked for more from Luigi and his mother. We arrived late after our flight was delayed, and they very kindly waited for us to show us the apartment. They left some coffee and wine for us and made us feel very welcome.

The apartment itself is spacious, clean, exactly as advertised, and located a 10 minute walk away from Ortygia (which is where most of the sights in Siracusa are). We were able to park easily and the area is very safe. There is also a supermarket just around the corner, along with a few inexpensive but very good restaurants.
