Francesco is the definition of a Superhost. He met me at the train station and escorted me through a shortcut to his apartment. It's perfectly situated between Ortigia and the Archeological Park. He mapped out my sightseeing stops and added more recommendations that he knew I would appreciate. It's an entirely walkable city ~ and so so interesting. The apartment is spotless, well designed and appointed. It had everything you would need for a short-term stay. There is something very special about the Sicilians and Francesco is one of them.
