Great location, literally right on La Piazza Duomo, plus a private parking space - a luxury on Ortigia. Of course, you can hear and see what's going on in the Piazza from the kitchen and living room - quite entertaining actually. But the bedroom is in the back. So, if the windows are closed at night, then you should be ok sleeping. If you wake up early, just step into Piazza when nobody is there, it's quite an experience. Great host, easy communication - highly recommended. Love Ortigia, so walkable, fantastic food and weather - couldn't ask for a better vacation.
