We've been staying in Air B & Bs for years. This was one of the best ever, maybe the best. It's a comfortable, air-conditioned, two-bedroom apartment with a well equipped kitchen. It also featured three outdoor spaces: one for laundry, a small balcony where we had our breakfasts, and a large roof terrace with a view of the Mediterranean where we ate dinners and sat out several evenings. Even on the hottest of nights it had a nice cooling breeze up there. The apartment is also very close to a swimming platform (clean, cooling Mediterranean water about 1 minute walk away) and is very close to shops, restaurants, and historical sites in Ortigia. Above all, Silvana and her husband were lovely and helpful hosts, who live in the same building and were quick to respond to our questions, etc. We loved staying here and would stay again without hesitation.
