Altogether a lovely 5 day stay. Spectacular view from large balcony right overlooking the waterfront and out to the blue sea even better than expected - a lovely place to spend time from morning to evening. Very comfortable for 2 people, a climb up the stairs but worth it. Located in the quiet guidecca area, close to the beautiful Palazzo Bellomo museum. Walking anywhere in Ortigia is easy, but the little bus goes around the circumference regularly and you can catch it close by.
Only downsides were lack of washing and ironing facilities (though this was expected as they were not included in the Airbnb information), and minimal information provided re wifi access ( Giovanni responded quickly to our text however.).Access to apartment by card and only one provided.. It took us some time to work out how to open the door from the apartment when called from the street entrance, you need to press 1 on the telephone.
We would highly recommend staying here, it was wonderful.
