We (two people) spent 5 wonderful nights in Casa Bellomo in mid-May 2022.
The hosts are very kind and responsive to inquiries. The self-check in was smooth. The apartment was spotlessly clean and well-stocked on arrival and we appreciated a "welcome basket" of drinks and snacks. The location is perfect--a block from the beach: We highly recommend swimming in the sea! The apartment is in a relatively quiet part of Ortigia so we were not bothered by street noise, but there are many good restaurants within a few blocks. The spectacular Piazza Duomo is only a 10 minute walk. The modern furnishings and amenities are in new/perfect condition. The two main rooms are spacious. The front room has a well-stocked kitchen, a dining area, a daybed, and a closet with a washing machine and cleaning supplies. The bedroom includes a seating area, a flat screen TV, air conditioning, an adjoining bathroom, and a balcony. The balcony has a clothes line, and clothes dry quickly in the dry air. The mattress is like new and very comfortable. There is excellent temperature control: First, the apartment has traditional architecture with high ceilings, thick walls, and heavy doors and shutters. These keep the apartment naturally cool and quiet. Second, you can also open the balcony doors for ventilation. Third, the air conditioner also works very well. The bathroom is modern and includes a rainfall shower head. We used the kitchen to cook breakfast, and appreciated the induction stovetop, new cookware, and Nespresso coffee maker. We did a lot of research on hotels and apartments before booking this apartment, and we are very pleased with the comfort and value of Casa Bellomo.
