Guest Reviews
- Szostak (10/5): Beztroski pobyt w centrum Ortigi - Zakwaterowanie w bardzo cichym i spokojnym miejscu, czysto i zadbane. Bardzo dobry kontakt z właścicielem W kuchni mogłyby znajdować się talerze
- clarkent54 (7/5): - Posizione Stato dei servizi igienici
- DuGi70 (7/5): - Bardzo czysty, funkcjonalny i dobrze wyposażony apartament w centrum zabytkowej Ortigii. Doba lokalizacja i wygodny pobyt z łatwym dostępem do miasta. Niestety widok z okna na poziomie ulicy na... sąsiednią ścianę odległa na małym podwórku odległa od okna o 1,5 m.... Wewnętrzny malutki dziedziniec przed drzwiami wyjściowymi. Z jednej strony byc moze romantycznie ale jednak.. trochę klaustrofobicznie ..
- Davy (9/5): - Très bien placé, lit grand et confortable, cuisine et lave linge Très pratique. Hôte disponible et réactif. Je pense qu'un presse-agrumes serait un bon équipement en plus!
- Bozhinova (10/5): Great spot - Great location nearby restaurants and within walking distance to everything! The host was super accommodating and responsive!
- Andrea (5/5): -
- Roberto (8/5): -
- Silvia (8/5): Ottima posizione - Posizione perfetta Bagno . Doccia con muffa e acqua fredda
- Mariangela (8/5): -
- Marta (7/5): - I servizi erano puliti ma un po' datati
- Aleksandra (7/5): -
- Francesco Paolo (10/5): Tre giorni da ripetere - Posto centrale e strategico per muoversi a Ortigia. Casa accogliente arredata, camere ampie, ottima la pulizia, proprietaria sempre disponibile al telefono. La zona è piena di locali per la ristorazione e di negozietti vari per acquistare souvenir. Esperienza da ripetere e da consigliare.
- Maurizio (7/5): - Posizione fantastica Camera angusta e non rispondente alla descrizione
- Akvilė (8/5): Unique place to stay - Great and convenient location in Ortigia, easy to check in, welcome amenities, A/C, small kitchenette for longer stays, private courtyard. A bit of a mold problem under the sink. The hair dryer should be stored somewhere else.
- Clara (9/5): -
- Stijnen (10/5): Would love to live here - Location is perfect, place is comfortable and aesthetically pleasing
- Luigina (5/5): - La posizione Acqua fredda, tazze sporche, asciugamano sporco e carta wc non svuotata
- ROSEMARY (5/5): - The location was within walking distance of everything in Ortigia. Having said that Ortigia is a very small island. It was however very well priced so expectations were not too high. Our accommodation was very small and felt very cramped with two people. The electronic door opener on the front door failed to work on many occasions and needed to be pressed a number of times to open.
- Ke (10/5): We enjoyed one night here. Would recommend! - Nice location, nice place, all facilities are good, easy check in Nothing
- susanna (8/5): - Posizione eccellente
- Dainius (9/5): Nice place - highly recommended! - Amazing place. Right in a heart of Siracusa Ortigia. Unfortunatelly we stayed only 1 nighht, but this is definatelly place to come back Was slight missunderstanding with parking place - but all solved.
- Marcin (8/5): - This apartment is located in a beautiful tenement building with a charming courtyard furnished with tables and chairs. It's ideally located on a quiet street in the Old Town. The room is very tiny, which didn't bother me, but my wife felt claustrophobic. The kitchen is also so small that it's a bit difficult to do anything there.
- Alessandra (8/5): bella gita ad Ortigia - Ottima posizione e camere ampie.
- Nora (9/5): -
- Bistra (7/5): - Great location in the historic center and near the sea, quite place. NO parking even though it was selected because it says there is. Paid parking only available in the entire area, 900 m from this property at a cost of 15 euro per day. Very small room. The kitchenette needs to be equipped with more common sense. Unnecessary and useless big cooking stove with 4 nests takes the entire plot and no space to place anything. No iron. Nowhere to dry towels, clothes or swim suits. No wardrobe or cabinet, just 4 handers and fabric hanging shelf. Basically no enough space to place clothes and belongings of 2 person. Cleaning mops and swipes just inside the room and in front of the eyes at all the time. Nowhere to hide.
- Koszyk (10/5): -
- Eleni (10/5): - Impeccably clean , close to all major sites and the sea, quiet and well equipped
- Baroyan (4/5): -
- Debodeep (9/5): -
- Elise (2/5): - L’emplacement était idéal Il y a beaucoup d’humidité, l’appartement n’est pas propre, il n’y a pas de couteaux, c’est exigu et surtout : la propriétaire ne répond pas. Nous avions pas d’eau le matin, et c’est bien sûr hors de leur contrôle mais aucune réponse de la propriétaires De même le mauvais code nous avait été fourni afin de récupérer les clés dans la boîtier, nous avons donc dû attendre 30min qu’on nous donne enfin le bon.
- Claire (7/5): - La localisation est idéale et la literie très agréable. L'hôte est réactif et nous avons pu arriver avant l'heure, ce qui est un plus important. L'absence de lumière naturelle était un peu pesante. L'espace extérieur est un plus mais est à partager, ce qui n'est pas toujours idéal. Le boiler coulait, ce qui rendait la salle de bain peu accueillante.
- Rimantas Preskienis (10/5): -
- Smith (8/5): - It was clean and comfortable and there was secure bike parking in the courtyard. It is very close to 3 heavy doors which made a lot of noise every time someone entered or exited the building. Therefore it was not very relaxing for sleeping.
- Aleksandra (9/5): -
- Julia (8/5): -
- Giuseppe (8/5): -
- Moritz (8/5): Sehr zentrales Apartment mit vollausgestatteter Küche - Super zentrale Lage auf der Altstadtinsel von Syrakus mit einer voll ausgestatteten Küche und schönem Innenhof. Leider entgegen der Angaben kein Parkplatz an der Unterkunft. Ein Parkaus ist 15 Gehminuten entfernten.
- Stefan (8/5): - Bra att vi kunde ta in våra cyklar och förvara dem säkert under natten
- Robert (8/5): - Excellent location, spacious apartment, easy access There’s hardly any sunlight, two windows either look at a courtyard or a small yard in-between apartments
- Jürgen (8/5): Tiny Appartement - Sehr zentral, komfortabler Ausstattung, Kekse Wasser und Kaffee als Willkommen, auf engsten Raum alles vorhanden. Sehr eng, als Einzelzimmer okay, eher dunkel, geringe Lüftungsmöglichkeit
- anna (10/5): - Appartamento ubicato in un cortile affascinante, centralissimo. Letti davvero comodi, abbiamo cenato nel ristorante dell’host “Pane di mare” di fronte al Teatro Comunale, molto buono e prezzi modesti.
- Ulrich (10/5): -
- Melanie (8/5): Durch die perfekte Lage ,ideal für einen Städtetrip nach Ortigia - Die zentrale Lage und der schnuckelige Innenhof Sehr eng, wenn auch alles was man braucht vor Ort ist.
- Grassi (6/5): - Posizione ottima Camera e letto troppo piccoli , più adatto a persona singola. Prezzo pagato un po' alto rispetto a quanto ricevuto, pensavo di aver prenotato la camera superiore e invece ho sbagliato e ho avuto la standard.. Acqua non potabile
- Petra (8/5): - ein schönes, grosses Appartment in sehr zentraler Lage, mit allem was man benötigt. Das Bad war gross, das Appartment sehr sauber. Die ebenerdige Lage war sehr praktisch. Die Kommunikation mit der Vermieterin hat auch gut funktioniert.
Perfekt wenn man sehr zentral wohnen möchte. Man sollte aber beachten, das das Appartment in Ortigia liegt, also mitten in der Altstadt. Ohne Genehmigung oder Anmeldung durch den Gastgeber darf man nicht mit dem Auto auf die Insel fahren und das Parken ist dort auch meistens verboten. Es gibt private Stellplätze, wie andere Reisende es beschrieben haben, aber uns war die Situation bei Buchung nicht ganz klar. Vielleicht war es auch unsere Schuld, das wir uns nicht so genau vorab erkundigt hatten, daher ist dies nur ein Tipp: wem die Parksituation wichtig ist, und wer nicht so mobil ist: vorher genau erkundigen und planen.
- Hülya (9/5): Tolle Lage. - Super Lage, große gemütliche Wohnung, sehr nette Kommunikation mit Jessica. Es war etwas dunkel, weil Fenster und Tür nach Innenhof gerichtet war.
- Sophia (10/5): -
- Roberta (8/5): -
- Belen (9/5): - La ubicación, las instalaciones y la amabilidad con la que nos han tratado en todo momento. Todo estuvo correcto
- FUFACHEVA (9/5): Un appartement tres spacieux, propre et bien sonorise. Super localisation. -
- Riccardo (9/5): -
- La Salete (8/5): - A localização é excelente, muito perto do mar mas também muito central. A proprietária deu todas as indicações para entrar com o carro na cidade, para encontrar estacionamento, etc. Vsle a pena também pelo terraço, apesar de ser partilhado com os outros hóspedes. O espaço interno do quarto é mesmo muito pequeno.
- Eva (5/5): Kicsi, sötét, gyengén felszerelt és kellemetlen szagú lakás - Az elhelyezkedés jó volt annak aki az óvárosban akar lenni. Erős pisi szag a lakásban érkezésünkkor (és utána is akárhogyan szellőztettünk (ajtót hagytuk nyitva mivel ablak nincs sehol, csak a fürdőben) ez a kellemetlen szag megmaradt.
Sötét, gyengén felszerelt lakás.
Az udvar minden más lakóival közös, élvezhetetlen.
Nagyon messze a homokos tengerparttól.
A szállas adóval nem találkoztunk.
- Manfredi (8/5): Cute apartment in ortigia - The host was very nice and send use a lot of information regarding our stay in Ortigia. The apartment is very nice and good location. AC in the bedroom was not working very well
- Antonino (8/5): - Il cortiletto è situato in una posizione perfetta, gli appartamenti sono piccoli ma dotati di tutto, piatti, stoviglie, phon, teli bagno, sapone e shampoo, e anche un set regalo con borsa per la spesa, le cialde del primo caffè e del tè. Inoltre si può utilizzare lo spazio esterno per mangiare all’aperto o per mettere ad asciugare teli e costumi sullo stendino. Doccia comoda e funzionale. Letto comodo, locali puliti L’acqua del lavabo del bagno fuoriusciva molto lentamente, probabilmente a causa del calcare interno. Abbiamo segnalato il problema e spero risolvano velocemente
- Luca (7/5): -
- Francesca (10/5): - Accogliente, ospitali, posizione ottima e la struttura era pulita e accessoriata di tutto. Nulla
- Júlia (7/5): -
- elena (8/5): Bueno - Amplio y cómodo La atención no fue buena
Elegimos el apartamento por contar con parking y no nos hicieron la gestión de éste. Tuvimos que buscarlo por nuestra cuenta
- Maria (9/5): Superb -
- Nada (9/5): I would absolutely recommend! Location is perfect - Location, size, very quiet They should check appliance and rest of the apartment after every check out. Coffee machine don’t work, sink was cocked- was rectified empirically but we needed to call. Laundry machine takes very long time to finish without time indication. AC is quite noisy. Apartment need some renovation as walls are pilling off.
- Holly (10/5): Exceptional - Spacious, clean, airy, everything I needed for my stay, excellent location and very helpful host.
- Elizabeth (10/5): Exceptional -
- Christopher (7/5): Good - Location is great. The courtyard is very pleasant + much needed as the apartment is tiny! It is right next to the coast + in the old town which is charming. Parking was a pain + we left the car in a carpark 2/3mile away which had to be paid daily. The apartment has everything you require but is extremely small, I mean exceptionally small so people of height or girth be prepared.
- Griffin (10/5): Very good and value for money. - Spacious apartment that was well equipped and in a quiet but central location. Delightful little courtyard and all set in the enchanting Ortigia island. Jessica and Michael were very friendly and responsive when we contacted them about the patchy WIFI. Which was a problem general to Syracuse as a whole that evening. We have nothing negative to say here.
- Jacqueline (1/5): Very poor accommodation, would recommend avoiding - Location was ok Keys didn’t work, nor did the internet (not their fault), nor did the air conditioning. Bed uncomfortable. Light in courtyard didn’t go off until midnight with no way of turning it off earlier so no sleep possible until past midnight. Owners quite rude and unfriendly and unhelpful
- Tony (10/5): Exceptional -
- Dd (10/5): Exceptional - I had been traveling a long time through Italy and booked this apartment for a week..It was perfect.. Everything was excellent from the washer, refrigerator and cooking facilities and it was so nice to relax and just enjoy being there..Rita the cleaning girl came every morning to the courtyard and was always cheerful and sweet.. Jessica was very prompt in answering me and messaging when needed, and her husband was so incredibly kind and helpful..I loved being there and just enjoying that everything WORKED..I mean in Italy sometimes you find small showers or things that don't always properly work..Not here.. Everything was perfect..You could walk anywhere you wanted to go or you could sit in the courtyard and just talk to other travelers in the different apartments..I enjoyed my stay there more than anywhere else and I hope to come back next year and stay again..May is the perfect weather and not as busy but the restaurants and stores were all open and the people of Ortigia are welcoming and kind..I simply loved it there. Jessica's husband gave me a ride to the train station as I left and he was an absolute joy to talk to about other travels..These young people who own it and have run it are an inspiration to all on how hospitality is done.. Perfecto. Nothing
- Abraham (8/5): Very good -
- Colleen (7/5): Good -
- Gadd (9/5): Enjoyed the apartment and location -
- Walter (6/5): Top location but low quality - The location was top. We found the room really too small and the facilities incomplete. The bed was not very comfortable.
- Watson (9/5): Great location and well thought out accommodation - Great location. Also we could swim (even in February!) in a lovely beach 2 minutes from the property. The shower was very good. The kitchen area was perfect too - the owner had thought of everything. Nothing - the place was great.
- Dieuwertje (10/5): Very cute apartment and good location - Very nice apartment with cute courtyard. Close to the main sights on Ortigia island. There was a washing machine, washing liquid and a drying rack. The shower didn’t stay warm for very long.
- Stephan (7/5): Discovering Ortigia: A Centrally Located Gem with Character - Our stay at Il Cortiletto di Ortigia offered an authentic Syracuse experience with more than a few memorable highlights. The apartment's prime location was truly its greatest strength, placing us right in the vibrant heart of the historic district. We appreciated the generous living space, which provided a comfortable base for exploring the enchanting streets of Ortigia. The central positioning meant that every significant attraction was just steps away, allowing us to immerse ourselves completely in the local atmosphere. While every property has its unique quirks, we noticed a few areas where the apartment could be enhanced. The coffee provision could be more generous for multi-night stays, and the courtyard's acoustics might benefit from some sound-dampening strategies. The interior ventilation could also be improved to ensure maximum comfort during warmer periods. These are constructive observations that could elevate an already promising accommodation, and they don't detract significantly from the overall charm and convenience of this delightful Ortigia apartment.
- Paul (5/5): Passable -
- Luigi (9/5): Loved it - Everything, it was a incredible stay. It was over my expectations N/a
- Caron (8/5): Great place and location in Ortigia - Jessica was very helpful. loved being in the heart of Ortigia.
- Robert (7/5): All good except the saga of the keys, at night there are no lights - What breakfast
- Silvia (10/5): Great stay! - The location was great, close to the centre and the sea, and close to a parking area. Easy access.
- Rita (7/5): Good -
- Hristo (8/5): Very good -
- Hazel (8/5): Very good - Good location, central for sightseeing
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional - The location was perfect, in the heart of the city centre! Close to the sea. The apartment was very spacious and equipped with everything you need for your stay. Communication with the host went very smoothly. Highly recommend!
- Panagiotidis (8/5): Very good - A very big, comfortable apartment with all the amenities you need for a few days in Ortigia. Extra credit for the patio outside where you can have your morning Italian coffee and make your daily plans. A weird smell probably because of the humidity. Also the shower maybe needs a small renovation to reach the absolute 10.
- Lisa (10/5): The hosts were very available and helpful. Close to airport and host arranged a taxi for us. -
- Enikő (8/5): Very good - The apartment is located in the centre, it is close to everything.
It is well equipped, and the hosts are nice and helpful. The apartment is a bit too small and dark, and due to the lack of windows it is hard to air it out.
- Roozbeh (6/5): Pleasant - Location, cleanness The fridge was making a weird noise, annoying at nights. I still have a recording of it. But the host said they checked and no noise. So I had to unplug the fridge.
- Rowan (9/5): Jessica was a great host. I forgot to leave the 12euro city tax and she was very understanding of this. I recommend thi - Excellent location and very close to everything we needed
A beautiful little courtyard also
- Christa (9/5): Superb - The apartment is very quaint and in an excellent location. There is no window, except one in the bathroom.
- Rick (9/5): Superb - Location was fantastic well equipped and clean
- David (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jay (9/5): Superb - Host was very responsive--very short tirnarounds when i sent messages. Good command of English. Very clear instructions for getting in to the suite. Place is well located. Would be ideal for 2 or 3 couples travelling together to rent all the suites, then have the shared outdoor space. Good outdoor space. Pots in kitchen not terribly great. No big cutting knives. A bread knife would've been helpful.
- Tihomir (9/5): Superb - Very good and responsive host, clean, comfortable place, very good wifi.
- Anna (9/5): Lovely flat in the heart of ortigia - lovely courtyard in heart of ortigia island, little kitchenette with all you might need. You share a courtyard with other guests who might make some noise
- Milena (8/5): Very good - The location is perfect, the host was kind and reachable, the facilities were good The bed was not properly attached. The matress was comfortable but it was impossible to lay down without it failing, collapsing. The warm water was not enough for 2 people to have a short shower.
- Anonymous (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderful location , cosy room with a comfortable bed
- Christine (8/5): All said - Lovely old part of the city and full of character.
Good AC Noise from people above scraping chairs and people talking made sleep difficult without earplugs.
Shower has no power which was ok for a body rinse but no good for hair washing.
No mosquito screens
Bed very small for a couple - fine for single person usage. Not even wise enough for two pillows!
There was also not enough room for two people to move around but it was evident they do expect to sleep two people there!
- Sergio (1/5): Bad - The location was ok. The place was small and cramped, dark and dingy, and absolutely reeked of mold or mildew. It was so bad that after one night, after which I had trouble breathing (I am asthmatic) we left, rather than spend the remaining four days there. When we contacted the owner he laughed it off as normal, because it was close to the ocean. After we informed them of our leaving there was no communication, no acknowledgement, and no apology. This was the so called studio apartment. Absolutely disgraceful.
- Stephen (9/5): Very beautiful experience - The hosts are simply wonderful. Comfortable place and very well located
