We had a great stay at Laura's apartment. It's spotless and extremely comfortable. Our seven year old said she had the best sleep she's ever had at this apartment. Laura's kitchen is well equipped and generously stocked. The living room is incredibly comfortable with plenty of information on Syracuse. There are three bathrooms and plenty of hot water.
It's a 10 minute stroll to Ortygia - five minutes without children. We would highly recommend this to anyone travelling to Sicily - either as a couple or family - as one of the best places we've stayed in Italy. Also, if you're driving there's parking right outside the front door and a supermarket five minutes drive away or 10 minute walk. There are cafes, geleteria and restaurants very close by.
Lea who greeted us on arrival was terrific with all her advice and provided a lovely and extremely friendly welcome to Sicily.
We wish Laura and her family the very best.
