Francesco was very helpful prior to our arrival providing very good information regarding car parking etc. We arrived at 11pm on a Saturday evening and he was there waiting for us. The appartment is clise to the centre of Ortigia so a great location for exploring the whole of the historuc centre. The Cafe di Roi opposite the appartment was very good for breakfasts and very reasonably priced. We used the cafe every day for breakfast. The road is a little noisy in the evening as cars pass by within feet if the front door. So we did struggle little with sleep, but this was not a major issue for us.
