This is your home away from home, right in the heart of Ortigia. The apartment is well equipped (air conditioning, comfortable furniture, washing machine, sunken tub, etc), beautifully decorated (interesting artwork, local decor pieces, accent wall, etc) and has thoughtful touches (a dedicated place to put your shoes & keys, fun kitchen appliances like an immersion blender, huge sliding mirrors, the bathroom smells like a spa, etc). I could go on. It is gorgeous and has everything you need. Lucia is an attentive and helpful host. There are a lot of stairs, but the entrance and building feels safe and private. You can hear some street noise from the master bedroom, I’d recommend ear plugs or a white noise machine if you are not used to the common noises of central city apartments. The location cannot be beat. Ten minutes to the Diana Fountain, fifteen to the cathedral, steps from the markets and a view of the ruins & sunsets. This place is a gem.
