The location was perfect. Great for parking, close to restaurants, and right across the bridge from the Island. The market was a 5 minute walk from Mario's place! My wife found the most amazing deli/sandwich shop at the market. 2 foot long italian sub with all the fixings for €5. For the apartment, the space of the apartment was plenty for our family of six. On the third floor (top floor) of the building with no elevators but that is a minor detail. There is some major work being done to have an elevator installed. Overall, great apartment, knowledgeable and friendly host, perfect location, and will definitely stay again if we go back to Syracusa.
