We had a very pleasant stay at Andrea's apartment. It is very beautiful decorated, very well equipped and very clean. It is located just outside the old city center (Ortigia), which you can reach after a 10 minutes walk. Free parking in front of the door. Two bikes are available if you want to take a ride along the sea. Little beaches after a 15 minutes ride by car. Andrea is a very nice person and can give you all kind of tips. We surely recommend Andrea's apartment if jou want to visit Syracuse.
