We absolutely loved this place! We arrived during the water canoe polo world championships in Ortigia and Guilia was very understanding of our late arrival with crazy traffic. We loved the walk in to the apartment past monuments and the water polo festival, Ortigia is such a fun island! Guilia's place is in the heart of everything but down a quiet, safe (as is the whole island) and residential side street. We truly felt like locals, which is always fun when travelling. When you open up the main doors, you're immediately in the cozy, well-appointed and large studio (no stairs, yaaaaay - we were so tired from a long day of travelling and sight seeing, this was an unexpected bonus!). Water pressure was AWESOME, the bed was comfortable and we loved how dark you were able to make the apartment. A/C worked really well, too. We have stayed in quite a few airbnb's, but this one is tops for convenience and charm - it has everything you need, Guilia was nice and gave us great recommendations and the entire island was easily at your fingertips.
