This is our fifth visit to Origia in nearly as many years but our first stay in an AirBnB. Jennifer’s apartment is a little gem hidden away off of the Via Dione in a quiet and secluded square - bright, airy and a fusion between old and new. The building is located in the oldest part of the island - a maze of small streets - and has been renovated to a high standard with lots of quirky modern touches. The apartment was very comfortable and well equipped. The air conditioning was a real bonus in the heat of the day as was the beautiful and spacious sun terrace for breakfast. Communication with Jennifer was excellent - she was unable to meet us in the end but sent very helpful photos, and a video by WhatsApp walking us through the check in process to ensure our checkin was easy. The location of the apartment couldn’t be better in terms of coffe shops, bars, restaurants, supermarkets, the local electric bus service and numerous places of interest. Would highly recommend. ** Note: As of 5 October 2019 - if arriving or departing by bus, Siracusa bus station (by the train station) is currently closed and buses have been relocated to Corso Umberto - Interbus tickets for Catania Airport. Tickets are available in the small café bar near the gardens at the top of street where the buses are stopping (look out for the blue Interbus signs). There is little or no information advising of the closure nor any timetables displayed - perhaps allow a little extra time if wanting to buy tickets or enquire about timetables etc. **
