Staying in Matthew's apartment was everything we could have asked. Our contact Enrico was extremely helpful and friendly and went out of his way to make our check-in easy and our stay comfortable.
The photos and description were exactly as portrayed. The apartment is beautifully decorated and you immediately felt at home, there is a well equipped kitchen that made cooking a pleasure, comfortable beds and a fabulous shower. The location was perfect with all of Ortigia to explore and we enjoyed daily walks to the wonderful markets for all our perishables.
Whilst there are a number of stairs up to the apartment it was not a hardship to climb them several times a day. If you are driving and staying for longer than a few days we recommend buying a weekly or monthly Talette parking pass directly from the issuing office, Uffici e Servizi at Via Elorina 148 Siracuse, before arriving at the apartment. It is well worth the effort.
Thank you Matthew, our only regret is that we had to leave to continue our journey.
Doreen and Joe
