Fantastic flat on a high floor, managed by exceptionally welcoming and helpful hosts.
Location is great to visit Siracusa and neighboring areas: train station, bus stops, archaeological park, and Ortigia are all very close on foot. Despite the proximity to the station, the area is safe and pretty quiet, both during day and night.
The flat looks exactly like in the pictures. It's clean, well kept, and everything works well. All little useful things are included (cutlery, dishes, drying rack, etc.). There's also a washing machine in perfect condition. The flat can get pretty warm inside during hot sunny days, but the two air conditioners, one in the kitchen and one in the bedroom, cool it down in no time. The building in which the flat is located is a bit old and has not been renovated recently, but everything is in working order (like for instance the elevator).
Maria and Marco are exceptional hosts. They genuinely care about their guests well-being. I have never encountered hosts so proactive in helping resolve quickly and effectively any issue which might come up unexpectedly. During our stay, a water pipe broke down in the flat below us, and for safety they also closed our water temporarily. Thanks to the prompt action of Maria and Marco, the pipe was fixed immediately (in the flat below ours!), and water was back in a matter of hours. They are also very knowledgeable about the area, and they were helpful in highlighting special activities or places which would have been difficult to find on our own.
Overall, we really enjoyed our brief stay, and it was always a pleasure interacting with Maria and Marco. We wholeheartedly recommend this flat to anyone interested in visiting Siracusa.
