The property has very nice updated rooms, kitchenette, and great location. It’s an interesting place with old filmmaking cameras and memorabilia. The staff is wonderful. They were very helpful and accommodating. Parking in Ortigia is difficult. The staff helped us with a valet service which worked out well.

Front desk staff was not nice. In flexible. The deluxe apartment was the worst choice. The upstairs has a kitchen, the basement is basically barely enough to fit in one bed. Everything is old. The furniture looks like antique. The stuff in the kitchen is old and dirty, not even dare to use it.
