The stairs were more like a ladder, so quite steep. Not for people with mobility issues.

Location is great - right in the old town, only yards away from the street markets, restaurants and bars.

The stairs to the second floor are a bit scary, you need to be very careful, especially if you travel with kids. This is the only drawback I was able to find))) Fantastic place to stay!

What a place! Such great memories! It felt as if we came to stay at our granny's house, not in the apartment rented on a commercial platform. She met us in person (although we came much later than agreed, after the check-in time wich is till 8 pm), showed everything in the house and brought tons of presents: fruits grown at her son's farm, fresh juice, home made olive oil. She even made two cakes for us which were simply delicious. She did care about how our stay was going on. The apartment has everything you need: the kitchen is equipped with everything for cooking, there was even a washing machine! A baby cot and even a baby chair was provided for us! There are lot of paintings on the walls that the host and her family made on their own, very artistic! And the house has a history! So, all in all it was a truly authentic Italian experience. The location is fantastic: 20 metres from the market, steps away from all the sights on Ortigia island. We were also able to park our car by the apartment (public parking, but free of charge) as the host secured a spot for us. And even though the apartment is in the heart of Ortigia, it is still not in ZTL zone! Two separate bedrooms, so it is convenient both for families and for a group of friends.

Steep steps up to bedroom are a bit dangerous if in a hurry.

Very good host. Parking close by

The only thing that can be a bit problematic is the stairs that take to the upstairs bedrooms. Extra care is needed to climb up.

The location of the apartment is great just at the beginning of Ortigia. The host is super nice and helpful! She even baked us a cake and brought oranges from her garden. The apartment is beautiful, clean and quiet.

the host is great and a very special person full of positivity and hospitality ! the location is super convenient ! very clean with all necessary facilities ! free parking around can be found !

Stayed in April 2023

the stairs to the main bedrooms (mezzanine) is very steep. I wouldn’t recommend it for a elderly person or small children but there’s another bedroom on the ground floor.

The flat is located in the heart of the old town Ortigia, it is very confortable and the host Immacolata was extremely welcoming. The breakfast was generous including a marvellous handmade mermelada. definitely i would like to come back.

The stairs are pretty steep. If this could be a problem for you, maybe this is not the best place for you.

Our host was the nicest and the most helpful host in Italy. We even got a welcome cake! And she has arranged a parking for us.

Stayed in March 2023

The stairs to go to the two upstairs bedrooms can be challenging. The host was very warm and welcoming.

Location was perfect. We were lucky to find parking right in front of the house. I got clear instructions on how to get to the property without entering the ZTL zone.

* The main bedrooms are upstairs, with a very difficult staircase. Not for the weak-hearted. It might be dangerous to carry heavy luggage upstairs.

* Wonderful hostess who met us and showed us everything, also giving us some of her own cooked/baked goods * Good location within walking distance of the main attractions * Parking was arranged for us, though the area is very crowded, so check this in advance * Actually a very spacious three-bedroom two-floor apartment * Tasteful decorations with the hostess's own art

Very nice apartment, well situated - but host Immacolata really makes the difference, extensive welcome package including several delicious home mades and tons of help during stay

Nothing, everything was perfect.

The stay in Casa Di Ninuccia as really great, everything was 10/10. The owner is super nice, helpful and creative, also the communication before the stay was easy. The place itself clean, cozy and well located. We truly felt like home. Thank you for a great stay and I hope we will be able to come back for a longer stay :)

The stairs to the upper bedrooms are only suitable for agile people.

Easy phone/WhatsApp communication meant we were met at the door by the host who also provided a parking place opposite the property and then - via translation on a phone from her daughter - explained about the property. Access was via a simple door directly from the street. The kitchen/living area was great and the host unexpectedly also provided simple but tasty breakfast options. The stairs to the upper floor bedrooms were more like an open rung ladder! (I had missed this on the property photos). My wife was not able to climb them but luckily the third bedroom and the bathroom were on the ground floor and the host made up the bed in that room. A shame as this was a plain room, unlike the beautiful main bedroom upstairs. The property is ideally suited to access on foot the local market, restaurants and main sights on the island. Luckily we did not need to move our car and re-park during our stay. Wifi worked very well.

Our host was so welcoming and helpful - she wanted to make sure our stay was most comfortable and the best experience. Lots of welcome treats were gratefully received. The house was sparkling. The most perfect location for exploring Ortigia and Syracuse - we didn't have to use our car once while there. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Amazing place, perfect location. Recomended 100%! Was pleasure to stay here, thank you!

Stairs to upstairs difficult to climb. We liked everything else very much indeed

Location, cleanliness, host- the property is right in the middle of the old town, near everything. It was superclean and very comfortable. The host was so helpful, considerate and kind. The slight downside for those less than nimble was the property's steep stairs.

Stayed in September 2022

The host was so welcoming and thoughtful, we spent a wonderful time there, would highly recommend! Literally 10 meters away from the local market and some beautiful archeological site in the heart of Ortigia, but still quiet in... Everything you need and very comfy.

The place is nice, centrally located and very clean, however, the best thing was how welcoming was the host - Immacolata. We felt at home and as if we were visiting an Italian family member. A great experience.

There is nothing negative

The place has a privileged location if you want to explore the city and specifically Ortigia. The host is a very special person who was waiting for us with delicious local appetizers and orange drink. We had everything we needed. Her warm welcome made us feel like coming home.
