The property was tastefully furnished that was the reason I booked this property. But there was no shower in the second bathroom (I had to book another property for my son and his partner), the TV was not working (missed World Cup), the all dishes were kept on the really badly rusted metal rack and no way to recycle/ appropriately discard the domestic rubbish other than to throw all into the public bins in the nearby street (I was told off by a passerby). The worst of all, the owner had no intention of doing anything. When I complained, she got angry with me!!! And the person in charge spoke not quite adequate English, which could sometimes make our understanding of each other difficult (e.g. she mixed up personal pronouns. Was she talking about me or someone else???). All the while I stayed there for a month I felt as if I was inspecting her property for her. What a waste of my time and energy! If the owner had taken a bit of care of her own property, I could have made my stay very pleasant. It was a shame. ##### Yasuko H. Stayed 30 nights in Dec 2022 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Daniele G. 31 May 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Au cœur d’Ortigia Jolie maison au décor raffiné. Située vraiment au milieu de l’ile D’Ortigia, aux origines de Syracuse. Amoureux des villes anciennes et des beaux marchés, précipitez-vous. ##### Daniele G. ### Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > - [Palazzo del Gattopardo Prince of Lampedusa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palermo-Hotels-Palazzo-Del-Gattopardo-Prince-Of-Lampedusa.h37006476.Hotel-Information) > - [La Serenissima Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palermo-Hotels-La-Serenissima-Hotel.h38267384.Hotel-Information) > - [Villa San Lorenzo ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palermo-Hotels-Villa-San-Lorenzo-Room-Suite-Restaurant.h25812884.Hotel-Information) > - [Condo Rentals Kissimmee](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kissimmee-Condos.d7927-aaCondos.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > - [Atlantis Bay - The Leading Hotel of the World](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taormina-Hotels-Atlantis-Bay-VRetreats.h985060.Hotel-Information) > - [Dimora Botteghelle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Trapani-Hotels-Vrbo-Property.h40000778.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Villa Bianca](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taormina-Hotels-Hotel-Villa-Bianca.h1277578.Hotel-Information) > - [A' Coffa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taormina-Coast-Hotels-A-Coffa.h37124860.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Villa Esperia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palermo-Hotels-Hotel-Villa-Esperia.h1467750.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotel Metropole Taormina](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taormina-Hotels-Metropole-Maison-DHotes.h3779098.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels near Bangor University](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bangor-University-Hotels.0-l6086485-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > - [Villa Taormina](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taormina-Hotels-Villa-Taormina.h2530371.Hotel-Information) > - [Villa Sant'Andrea, A Belmond Hotel, Taormina Mare](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taormina-Hotels-Villa-SantAndrea.h889626.Hotel-Information) > - [Room of Andrea](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Trapani-Hotels-Room-Mate-Andrea-Palazzo-Platamone.h35313325.Hotel-Information) > - [Domus Sicily - Il Giardino di Michela - Heated Pool](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palermo-Hotels-Domus-Sicily-Il-Giardino-Di-Michela-Heated-Pool.h35501042.Hotel-Information) > - [Mazzarò Sea Palace - The Leading Hotels of the World](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taormina-Hotels-Mazzaro-Sea-Palace-VRetreats.h983846.Hotel-Information) > - [San Domenico Palace, Taormina, A Four Seasons Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taormina-Hotels-San-Domenico-Palace.h54173.Hotel-Information) > - [All-Inclusive Hotels in São Tomé and Príncipe](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Destinations-In-Sao-Tome-And-Principe-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d156-tAllInclusiveHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > - [Grand Hotel Timeo, A Belmond Hotel, Taormina](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taormina-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Timeo.h889634.Hotel-Information) > - [Relais 147](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Taormina-Coast-Hotels-Relais-147.h36152489.Hotel-Information) > - [Hotels in Vancouver](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vancouver-Hotels.d178315.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > - [Domìa Boutique Hotel e Cucina ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Palermo-Hotels-Domia-Boutique-Hotel-E-Cucina.h99434641.Hotel-Information) ### Flights ### Cars ### Activities ### Packages > - [Poetto Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Poetto-Beach-Sardinia.d6076214.Attraction) ---
