Stefano and Marika's apartment was great. It's in an excellent location; in walking distance to all the attractions we visited, but not right in the touristy area so it was quiet in the evenings. The front door opens up to the ocean, and we fell asleep each night to the sound of the waves crashing. The space in the apartment has been used really well. We found it to be perfect for us as my boyfriend could watch the TV and I could sit upstairs reading my book. The bed was very comfortable, and the apartment had all of the necessary bits and bobs (e.g. iron). The air-conditioning was very good! Stefano was the perfect host, and made us feel very welcome and ensured we were happy for the duration of our stay. Thank you, Stefano! If we are lucky enough to visit Ortigia again, we will come back to you!
