My wife and I stayed here for 5 nights, and really enjoyed it. Superb location a block from the Duomo. Excellent bed (firm). Quiet. Well-equipped kitchen. Nice to have a washer and dryer. Very helpful greeting from Emilia, who arranged for parking (essential in Siracusa), and provided lots of useful tips. Apartment located on 2nd floor (3rd floor US), but that wasn't an issue for us. All in all, we were very pleased.
