Francesco is probably the best Airbnb host we’ve ever had! He’s friendly, with lots of recommendations, easily available, and just a kind man all around. The apartment is spacious and beautiful, just 1 flight of stairs and centrally located with an easy walk to Ortigia. We would gladly return for another visit. PS don’t miss his recommendation for a fresh seafood lunch/dinner: Ortigia Fish Bar. Small and humble, off the beaten path, but right on the sea next to ruins you can swim in. A perfect meal!
