The apartment is in a great location on the water in Ortigia as well as close to all the island has to offer. It is also close to the the rest of Syracusa while everything on the island and the mainland is within walking distance. The apartment is very spacious and clean and can easily accommodate at least four people. In addition there are terrific views from its two small balconies. I would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone staying in Syracusa as it well worth its relatively modest price.
