Description from owner

Description

A completely renewed and very LARGE, very BRIGHT studio, 5 min far (by walking) from the city center, the archeological area (Greek Theatre) and the old town (Ortigia). Perfect for a couple (or two adults and a baby), it's fully equipped for an unforgettable stay in Sicily! You will also have free use of two bicycles during your stay!

It's new, it's cosy and fully equipped!

The Studio is at the first and last floor of a 19th century building that has been recently renovated. It consists of a main large room in which you'll find an huge wardrobe and a double bed. Here you'll also find a flat-screen TV.

From this main room you can get access to the kitchen corner (fully equipped kitchen!) and to the bathroom (with a shower stall). Close to the entrance there's also a laundry room in which you'll find the washing machine.

Heating and cooling are provided by an air conditioner.

The apartment is really bright and it has two little balconies and a large window in the kitchen area.

If you're coming with your baby we can provide you a crib and an high chair!

24h/24h Free WiFi Internet! Free use of two bicycles during your stay!

We are usually in town, plus we live in the same building. So, it will be easy to meet and (who knows?!) spend some time together! We will always give you some good tips about what to see/where to eat!

Everything is really close to the house. Unless you want to go outside the city, you can easily reach by walking almost every interesting part of the center (Ortigia, Greek Theatre...). Anyway, the bus/train station is 800 m far from the apartment.

If you have a car: you can leave the car in front of the building or in the streets nearby for free! Easy Parking!

“Wonderful option for staying in Syracuse”

Reviewed 28 May 2015

We liked the look of this apartment on line and we loved it when we got there. It is in a great location in terms of walking access to the key parts of the city. (Ortigia is a five/ten minute walk in one direction and the archeological park the same in the other direction.) The bus and train station are also only about 5/10 minute walk. It is really simple to get the 'interbus' from just outside Catania airport all the way to Syracuse. You can get off at Gelone50 which is really close to the apartment. It's one stop before the bus terminal. If you miss that you just carry on to the terminal and then it's only a short walk. It cost about £4 each way. When you get to the road on which the apartment is situated, keep walking through the small piazza past Bar Girasole to find No 5. It's a bit confusing as the properties in the piazza have their own numbers. The door is next to something called Cash Cafe. We thought it looked as if it might be noisy but it wasn't at all. The top bell is Marco's. The apartment is not in one of the real tourist areas which we liked; you feel as if you are seeing Syracuse as a place where people live and work and not just a tourist destination. Some people might find it a bit noisy when both French windows are open but it didn't bother us at all. The apartment was spotlessly clean. Having said all of that, the best thing about this rental is the owner Marco who gets 11 out of 10 for customer service! He could not have done more to make our stay happy, relaxing and successful. He had put bottled water and ground coffee in the fridge for us and gave us some maps of the city. He spent time explaining what is worth doing and where it is good to eat. Follow his recommendations; he knows what he is talking about! He made it very clear that we should ask for anything we needed help with. We asked if we could have extra pillows and they appeared straight away. We asked him about medical centres as we needed an infected finger looking at. He took us to a doctor a few miles away that he knew we could trust and who worked on Saturdays. He acted as an interpreter and the finger is now better! Throughout the week Marco checked that we were ok and didn't need anything. Half way through the week he brought us fresh towels and on the day we left he took us to the bus station and made sure we got on the right bus to the airport. Thank you Marco for everything! By the way, Bar Girasole sells great snacks, beer, coffee etc. And is really cheap. Well worth a visit or two.
