We couldn't have asked for a better first experience with Airbnb. Mario was an amazing host from the first e-mail, always answered emails quickly, and all his advice and suggestions were spot on. We stayed here for 12 days, the apartment is HUGE and has everything you would need for a long stay and most importantly feels like home - our family could have stayed forever not to mention it's in an amazing location just steps from Ortigia! Mario even spent the afternoon with me and my family to take us to see how olive oil was harvested, he went above and beyond. I'd come back to this apartment in a heartbeat!
