Imerio's apartment was ideally located in the modern part of Syracuse. That meant it was easy to park the car and find non-touristy places to eat and shop. It's a 15 minute walk to Ortygia.

The apartment is large and cool, and was very clean. We did not cook so cannot comment on the cooking facilities.

Imerio was very helpful and kind. He does not speak much English and we spoke virtually no Italian. But we managed, making extensive use of the translator on his iphone. He gave good recommendations and provided a map etc.

We had a great time in Imerio's apartment.
