The apartment is so spacious with two large bedrooms and beds. Both bedrooms have considerable storage and an air conditioner.
The available car parking was so useful. We had a hire car and it was a big relief to be able to securely park the car in the courtyard. Knowing you always have a park, close by the house and don’t need to interpret any parking signs was awesome, so easy!
The apartment itself was really well located and felt very safe. Initially we were disappointed not to be staying on Ortigia but we quickly realised that the apartment was the perfect distance from Ortigia, allowing for a relaxing walk through Siracusa on equally as busy streets but with less tourists and more locals. It definitely allowed for a more authentic experience staying off the island. We got to see more and learn more. We still went to Ortigia every day! It is so easy to walk there, and takes no time at all, but we also got to see the rest of the beautiful city.
We were also lucky enough to stay another night, which was happily accommodated by Valeria. Valeria was lovely and easy to contact throughout our stay.
