Francesco is a wonderful host who went above and beyond to help us. We were traveling with two young kids and managed to lock ourselves out and get our rental car towed(!!). In both cases Francesco was responsive and offered to help as soon as possible. Our stay in Ortigia was actually quite lovely, despite these few hiccups, thanks to Francesco’s help.
We had a few options when selecting Airbnb’s in Ortigia but decided to go with Francesco because he had the most glowing reviews. I’m so glad we did!
The apartment itself is nice, clean, very much as-described in pictures from his listing. The location is right in the center of town - perhaps a little too busy at times - but since we were there in late September it didn’t bother us much. Thank you Francesco for making our family trip to Ortigia a success!
