This is a ground floor apartment in the heart of old town Ortigia. It was a great place to stay, but not great to drive or park. Our host Ivana kindly directed us to where she was parked and let us take her spot - what a blessing!
Close the door to the bedroom and the air conditioner works well. There is a restaurant right across the alley, and we worried it would be loud late at night, but that was not the case. There is a grocery about 2 blocks away, and the kitchen has all you need to prepare a meal. We went to the traditional market in the morning to get some vegetables and Parmesan cheese, then cooked that night. Ivana has decorated very nicely.
