The apartment was fully prepared for us. Naturally, there were towels and toilet paper but there were welcome drinks such as water and juice. There was coffee and sugar and oil. Everything that was needed in a kitchen for a week's stay was provided bar the food and wine. The view from the living room and bedroom was lovely, right over the ocean. Max is a very kind and welcoming host. The apartment is in a lovely part of Ortigia and only 5 minutes from the market which is excellent. All round a great place to stay.
