"Property is located in the old town of Ortigia, just a block from the sea, and very walkable through the maze of narrow streets and alleys. It was fun to discover shops and restaurants. The building is very historic—part of the old Jewish section of the town, with ancient baths underground. Our hosts were very friendly and fully bi-lingual. The room was a bit dated, but very tastefully decorated. There is a very elegant courtyard for common use just below our 2nd story walk up. The continental breakfast was good, not exceptional. We enjoyed our stay very much."
