The apartment is ideally located to explore all Ortigia has to offer. In the lively Fisherman's quarter, there is access to fantastic restaurants and eateries at night where the daily market is held and it is only a short walk to Piazza Duomo where the more touristic scene is. I had been communicating with Iris and Max who were extremely attentive and very warm upon welcome. The 'Guide Folder' that had been prepared for the apartment was excellent and accurately detailed. As far as amenities there is a working washing machine (which was so handy) the air conditioners all worked great and the water pressure was fantastic. I would highly recommend this apartment, Max and Iris also manage many other properties in the area should you be looking for different configurations. As locals they have in depth knowledge of the area and many great suggestions. Thanks again for the stay, Rachel
