Max and Iris' flat is very central and a perfect location for exploring Siracusa. Although I could imagine in 40C, its nice to have tile floors, we found the flat rather uncozy. It was also lacking certain basics in the kitchen if you want to cook for a family. The only other complaint was that one of the neighbors loves to play very loud techno music until the middle of the night and you can hear it quite clearly in the bedroom. Check-in was perfect as Max was waiting for us just as our taxi pulled up. Communication with Max and Iris was also very easy. I would recommend this flat as a nice basic place for somebody who wants to be central and is a sound sleeper.
