I stayed one night at Linda's flat. Initially i was greeted by Frederico, Lidia's son as she was at work during the day. He was really kind and we managed to communicate with my limited Italian and his limited English very well. He showed me around the flat and gave me a map and told me about the most important places to visit. Later that evening i met Lidia who greeted me with a very warm welcome. She made me feel at home pretty quickly and over a cup of tea (as it was really cold that day) we chatted for 2 hours and great laughs too. I wish i had the chance to get to know them better. The flat was just as described. Lidia gave me an electrically heated sheet too to make me feel even more comfortable in the cold. The following morning i had a nice cup of coffee with Federico's girlfriend who was also really nice to me. I highly recommend Lidia's flat to stay if you want to stay in Siracusa right in the city centre with a host with great hospitality. I hope to return there once in summer too.
