The apartment was very spacious and elegant. It is comfortably away from the centre of Syracuse, but within reasonable walking distance to the Archealogical Park and to Ortigia. If you do not wish to walk, the Hop-on-Hop off bus has stop no 7 close-by. There is an excellent restaurant 3 / 4 minutes walk from the apartment.
Denise (and her mother) were charming, most helpful and most generous on our arrival. This is a truly lovely place to stay if you wish to 'do Syracuse' and we would definitely ask to stay there again when we next come back.
