An incredibly well designed and furnished apartment. Comfy bed, very cool bath/shower area. A larger-than-usual (for Italy) TV if that's important. The washing machine wasn't working when we were there which was a bummer since we were counting on it after a week elsewhere without one. We didn't get some of the basic things we're used to with nice AirBNB's (olive oil, cooking items, wine) but that's probably reflected in the very reasonable rental rate.
The location is a very quiet alley. It's not located in the fun part of Ortigia, but everything's a fairly short walk away. Ortigia is such a great little town with remarkable history, architecture, food, music, art. etc. Perfect for a 3-4 day stay.
There is a nice little Osteria very close to the apartment called I'isoletta that serves great Sicilian food at a very reasonable price.
PARKING TIP: If you're traveling in a car, it's a little tough to get near the apartment to drop bags, and parking is a challenge. There is a large paid parking lot about 800 meters away called Molo Sant'Antionio. NOTE: GOOGLE AND APPLE MAPS WILL NOT TAKE YOU TO THE ENTRANCE OF THE LOT. We saw lots of cars do what we did (pull over to enter where map services take you) but the entrance is around behind on the west side of the lot. You're better off entering Via del Porto Grande, 36 Siracusa as your destination. That will get you very close to the entrance.
