Incredibly friendly and helpful hosts, with the heart of gold. I can't emphasize that enough. I'd go back just to visit them if I'm back in Ortigia, Sicily.

The room is huge - as shown in the pictures - with a lovely view overlooking the rooftops and the sea. There's a resident/ neighbour's cat roaming the rooftops too. :) Very central location, walking distance to anywhere in Ortigia. Breakfast with Marisa every morning is fun - with attempts at conversations in English and Italian, homemade cakes and superb coffee. Yes, superb. I don't normally drink coffee black but here, I do. Helpful in giving out suggestions on where to visit, what to eat etc.. I loved all the restaurants they recommended. They even helped me look for train/ bus timings for day trips out to Noto and Modica. When I received some unfortunate news from home, Marisa was there with a ready hug (and coffee!) to comfort me as well. Amazing hospitality for a someone I've only met for a few days.

Thank you for the lovely time!
