Maita was a great host - she was responsive and helpful. We really appreciated her friend Luca picking us up from the train station in Siracusa, even when our train was delayed, and bringing us right to the apartment. It is in a great location, right beside the gorgeous Piazza di Duomo and parallel to Via Roma which can bring you to either side of the island in 1-3 minutes. Plenty of room for 3-4 people and comfortable beds. Maita also left a bottle of wine and biscuits for us which was a lovely touch.
