Francesca’s place was so great! Ideal location on Ortigia, closer to the bridge with Siracusa it was more busy and Francesca’s place was at the opposite tip of the island, more quiet and enjoyable. Francesca was the absolute sweetest, she really went above and beyond our expectations. The flat was clean, artistic touches throughout, heat worked well when needed, shower had plenty of hot water, kitchen was stocked with a few basic food items that came in handy during our stay. Within minutes walk to cafes, restaurants, small beach access and gorgeous water views. Ortigia is very walkable, and was full of great people. The fish market was so fun and lively and we had the best lunch ever right next to the famous sandwich place (which we skipped due to long lines). We were very happy with our stay and thank Francesca sincerely for her hospitality :)
