The location is very strategic - close enough to Ortigia's night life (10 minutes on foot), but far enough that parking is easily available in the street. The area is quiet at night.
The place has multiple air conditioners, very appreciated in the summer heat.
The bathroom is a bit small and can require some wiggling if you are taller than 170 cm, but is also newly renovated and clean. Complimentary coffee is also nice.
We had a moment of panic when the door key malfunctioned and had us trapped in; there is no secondary exit, and the window is barred (as customary for ground floor flats in Italy). The host responded within half an hour, but in the meantime we managed to fix the issue by heating the metal key on the stove so it would expand slightly.
Other than that, everything went well in our stay. Would come back here next time I am in Syracuse.
