This is a beautiful classic apartment in a great spot. Ortygia island is wonderful with many restaurants and beautiful architecture. If you have a car you will have to go to the nearby talete to park, but you can drop luggage off. April was colder than expected so we did not get to use the very large courtyard. Davide was a wonderful host. Helped us with anything we needed. We may have been first for the season and he helped us get the wall heaters running. NOTE: if you use the back three heaters at once you will blow fuses. Only use 2 at once. Davide also helped us deal with the construction right above the apartment. He talked to the men so they did not start early. We really appreciated that. The apartment has all you need for cooking and plenty of linens. The restaurant next door is great Osteria Da Seby. Also there is pizza and grocery just steps away. You can walk all over the island easily and there is lots to admire. Davide was great. We would come back if we lived closer! Thank you.
