If you're looking to stay in Siracusa, either a couple or on your own, I can't recommend Andrea's property highly enough. I was early to check in and so was his brother, who met me outside, introducing the place clearly and with a wonderful booklet of sights. He even emailed to see if I had what I needed the next day. The apartment is well appointed and comfortable and just away from the bulk of everything but within such an easy walking distance - perfect for anyone staying on the Ortigia (really, where else would you want to stay?) Fantastic!
