What a wonderful place to stay in Syracuse! The house is spacious, very clean, nice furnishings, quiet and in a very nice area. The large balconies with views of the pretty landscape create a fresh and airy ambiance to the property. Close to all the sights to see in the city.
Ortigia is gorgeous, its a good idea to take a boat cruise around the island to see the caves and the marvelous rock creations. The Sicilian seafood and pasta in the seafront restaurants are all delicious and modestly priced. The locals are very friendly and accomodating in understanding the little Italian phrases we learned. The Greek and Roman archaelogical theatres are something to see. I highly recommend Marcella's house for the location, comfort and their thoughtfulness. Ricardo was very generous, helpful and hospitable. We will remember these fun memories of our 7 month European journey. Thank you for your kindness!
