Mariella is very hospitable and accommodating host, who made our first few nights in Sicily very welcomed. She even provided us a travel cot once she realised we were travelling with our 7-month old baby. She is very responsive in our requests for information and recommendations before we arrive, which was helpful especially when this is our fist time to visit Sicily. The flat is well-equiped and homey. It is in a great location in historical Ortigia island to visit all the sites and is right next to two grocery shops and a pizza take-away and lovely shops. We really enjoyed our stay and will definitely recommend this place.
