The location is great giving easy walking access to everything in Ortigia and also Syracuse area, including the station. but don't expect an early night's sleep as the music from the restaurants and nightclubs is quite loud especially on weekends. But the advantages of the location outweigh those negatives. A few minor issue along the way, but our host responded very quickly. ##### Rodney S. Stayed 30 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ursula M. 29 Feb 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Über der Altstadt von Siracusa Die zentrale Lage auf Ortigia, in unmittelbarer Nähe zum Obst-, Gemüse und Fischmarkt lässt eine andere Welt eintauchen. Nur das Parken gestaltet sich kompliziert. In der Nähe gibt es das kostenpflichtige Parkhaus Talete, ansonsten fanden wir auf dem Corso Gelone, 10 min. zu Fuß meistens einen Parkplatz. Das Schlafzimmer hat kein Fenster, sondern eine verglaste Tür zum Flur. Die helle Wohnung befindet sich ohne Aufzug im obersten Stockwerk des Gebäudes, vom Wohnzimmer gelangt man direkt auf eine schöne Dachterrasse. Die Ausstattung in der Küche ist sehr gut und die Wohnung ist mit Geschmack dekoriert. ##### Ursula M. Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2020 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rosetta L. 8 Apr 2018 #### Semplicemente fantastica La TERRAZZA SUL TEMPIO è un fantastico attico, accogliente, pulito, e ben arredato. Ho trovato tutto ciò che mi serviva per trascorrere 4 giorni in assoluto relax. La terrazza è semplicemente fantastica con una vista mozzafiato ... si vede il Tempio di Apollo, e il mare ed è molto romantico riuscire a bere l'aperitivo al tramonto ... spero di tornare d'estate per poter cenare al tramonto. ##### Rosetta L. ---
