The apartment is in a fabulous location and is perfect for 2 people. The balcony is small but perfect as a winter suntrap. The view out to sea is lovely and the flat is very bright and airy. Francesco was extremely welcoming and helpful. Kitchen was fairly minimalist but fine for our purposes. Im sure Francesco would have provided anything additional had we asked. All in all, a perfect base for exploring Ortigia and Siracusa.
