Francesco was a gracious host. He gave us easy to follow directions and was there to meet us and take us to his well-located and well cared-for apartment. We followed his suggestions for a day trip and went to Ortigia. This area was a delight and easy to visit taking the bus.
His suggestions regarding food and restaurants were great and we would not hesitate to recommend staying at his apartment. Francesco is well acquainted with the city and the island and was kind enough to help us with directions for the next part of our journey. Many thanks Francesco for an interesting and welcoming visit to your city!!
