The apartment is great and it looks exactly as in the photos. It is located in the centre of Ortigia in a perfect location. It is perfect for two people with new furniture, perfectly painted walls and great distribution.
I parked our rental car in a private parking booked by Paolo. It was very convenient because you could leave the car inside the island of Ortigia (as if you were a resident) and the pricing was reasonable.
The only thing that I have to point out (and I am sure that it was a punctual problem that will be solved soon) is that there were some ants coming from outside of the apartment. They were small and clearly came from outside, but in the morning you could kill some of them in the roundabouts of the kitchen. I have to say the good things and the not so good.
Appart from that, I would reccomend Paolo's apartment to everyone. It is new, with great location, good hosts and clean. I would repeat if I went back to Siracusa.
