Denise was an excellent host. The apartment is large and spacious, very charming and well decorated. It has all of the amenities for a comfortable stay, and was very clean. The large wrap-around balcony is great for relaxing in the evening or having a morning coffee. There is ample free parking in front of the building which is very useful for those who rent a car while in Sicily. The area is quiet and relaxing while only a few minutes walk away from restaurants and bars, which is a great convenience. Denise and her mother were very kind, welcoming us with local sweets and a bottle of prosecco as gifts. They communicated quickly for any questions we had, and were very friendly and sweet, giving us a lot of local tips and information to make our stay even better. We had a great time and this was a fantastic Airbnb. I recommend this place to anybody who visits Syracuse and would definitely stay here again!
