When we arrived Valentina was waiting for us. Although we couldn't communicate in Italian, google translate helped us communicate. Valentina was very warm and the details(little candles, flowers) aligned her personality. We loved our stay at the apartment although the apartment was a bit small. We loved the city, the food and the wines. Valentina warned us that the woman next door was a bit crazy and especially the first day she was quit a disturbance(talking loudly in herself). After that we didn't hear her that much. We would definitely recommend Syracuse and Valentina as host. Thank you so much for everything!
