Alessandra was a spectacular host! Upon arriving she gave me several wonderful recommendations that covered everything from museums and archaeological sites to the best restaurants and gelaterias. She even left some homemade limoncello in the fridge which was tasty! The apartment itself was cozy, perfect for 1-2 people though it could fit more conceivably, and was really well located just outside of Ortigia. I definitely recommend staying at Alessandra's apartment!
