I can't imagine a better place or a more gracious host/ess. Maria Grazia waited for us to drive up and showed us to her place. It's clean, bright, spacious, well appointed, and in the best location possible in Ortigia. I would not stay anywhere else. Maria Grazia was extremely responsive to any messages, even when we asked for help with explaining parking payments. She also helped my wife find a salon when we wrote to her prior to our trip. She truly enjoys hosting and loves for her guests to be happy. She is a star and so is her apartment.
