Mario was a wonderful host who went above & beyond what was expected to be helpful.
The unit was in a great location, just a short walk to the island of Ortigia. We were able to get street parking for our car which was far cheaper than a car park.
The unit had 3 full bedrooms but the kitchen/ living room was slightly small for 6 adult guests particularly with the table extended. Not a major issue as we rearranged the furniture for our time there.
The unit is at the top floor (3 i think) of a residential block with no lift but that wasn't a problem even for us in our 60s & 70s. It was quite secure behind 2 locked doors to the complex and in an area that we felt safe.
All in all a pleasant stay in a very old city residential area.
