From the word go, Antonio ensured we remained in contact and got to his address with the minimum fuss. Although he wasn't available at the time, we have been looked after by Antonio's friend, Mario who was living above us and who looked after us so well he became a friend.
Antonio's flat is in the perfect location for staying in Ortigia as you are slightly away from the busy streets and this also enables you to park. To my mind this is the best place in Syracuse which has several good restaurants and bars, little shops, a laundry and in just a few minutes walk over the bridge you can enjoy the jewel in the Syracuse's crown, Ortigia.
Antonio's flat was perfect for us - it had all the amenities one needs; it was cool on a very hot day, it was quiet at night, it had plenty of hanging space and cupboards, the bed was very comfortable, loads of plugs, a very comfortable bathroom and all that you need to make breakfast and cook if you want to on a clean modern electric plate. Antonio was very generous with his supply of coffee and also his welcoming gift, a bottle of wine. We truly felt at home. Between Antonio's place and Mario's care and friendship, we had the best time in wonderful wonderful Syracuse. Thank you very much to both of you.
