When visiting Syracusa with our family we stayed two nights in Salvatores place, and we can really recommend it!
It is perfectly situated middle of the old town (Ortygia) which means that you can go back and forth to the apartment if you need a break from the heat (we was visiting in July with small kids). We arrived with rental car, and you will find car parks nearby that isn´t too exensive (approx 17 dollars for 24 hours). The apartment was very very clean, well designed and great equipped. We stayed a lot at the cosy terass during the evening and used the kitchen for cooking. The kitchen had everything you need for preparing the meal. Stefania and her husband gave us a warm velcome when we arrived and showed us where everything was, gave us some local tips and checked in (through "Whats up") if everything was ok, and if we needed some help with something. This is a great place to stay!
