Wow! The best Airbnb hosts we’ve had! Not to mention the beautiful apartment in the centre of the gorgeous town of Ortigia. Roberto and Cinzia picked us up at the train station with their friend who spoke English and translated for us all. They took us out for a coffee and then we were able to check in early... such a nice surprise! Roberto gave us a walking tour of nearby sites to introduce us to this special place.
The Apartment is lovely and brand new. Not a thing was missed. Great linens, perfectly stocked kitchen , comfortable bed and great shower. Coffee, water and some treats were supplied as well.
Because the apartment is so new, they are still renovating the units above. It was a little noisy but we expected it and it wasn’t even bad.. we were out all day and it really was just regular city noise.
Roberto was concerned about this so he included a breakfast for us each morning at a local cafe... which was delicious! The best lemon granite!
We have been travelling for months through Europe... all at Airbnb’s.. we’ve had many wonderful experiences but the personal touches here were incredible.
At the end of our stay Roberto picked us up and drove us back to the bus station and checked with us to make sure we made our flight in time.. so sweet.
I have family travelling to Sicily next year and I have already told them they must stay here!
