The hotel was conveniemtly located in Siracusa. The room service was excellent. But the bed pillow, however, was very flat and uncomfortable as well as the bed matress.

Room and bath were clean, but they smelled of heavy smoking activity. Too cold to keep balcony door open to air out room. No warm or hot water for shower on last day. Breakfast was sparse by all Sicilian hotel and B@B standards. Just a croissant and a coffee of choice. Both were good, however. Shower glass enclosure leaked which is a problem in many places in Sicily. Housekeeping was great. Very quiet location. Location is great for walks to Old Siracusa and the island. Beds very comfortable. Lighting good. WIFI, heat and AC great and work well. All in all, a mixed bag.

Helpful, friendly place. large room.

Just stay somewhere else, plain and simple.

This hotel is good value-for-money in a good location. It is about a 10 minute walk from the train station, equal walking distance to Ortigia island and the archaeological park (20 minutes), and reasonably close to supermarkets and restaurants. Staff were friendly and easy to deal with.

You get what you pay for. It’s cheap, so it won’t be a 5 star place. I had a room on the second/top floor. Bit old but clean, although non smoking you could smell that in the past it had been a smoking room. Annoyingly, qifi never worked in my room once when I was there. Breakfast is basic. I parked in front of the hotel, on the street without issue. Location is in walking distance of the old part of town, travelled as a woman alone and felt safe.

Overall very Good location and service

Had to walk up many steps to get to the room. Good location.

Easy to find parking. Staff was incredibly friendly and hospitable. On foot, you are about 20 min from bars/restaurants in Ortigia and 10 min from ruins. But you're outside the main area and there's really nothing around. (The proof is in the pudding when you need to shell out 2E for a beer.) But again, the staff was terrific. Place was clean. Moderate shower.

5 mins from station.10 mins from centre.easy to find.good for days trips to noto.and avola.(1 hour train).I wood stay here again.

1. no lift. 2. no table lamp. 3. Incorrect directions from train and bus station. 3. No shelf below mirror in bathroom for toilet articles. 4. Pricing of taxing of taxes and fees for accommodations in written e-mail incorrect upon arrival. 5. Very noisy room: autos, motorcycles, dogs barking, construction. 6. Poor light in bathroom. 7, Slow hot water to the bathroom sink. 8. Must ask for juice with decent breakfast.

You get what you pay for. Low on frills but cosy, clean hotel central to all the attractions of Siracusa. They make a darn good granita too.

The room was bright, clean and sunny with a good airconditioner. I didnt like the big dog that hangs around reception, sometimes barking.

Ottima struttura in una zona veramente strategica!! Consiglio vivamente!!

Receptionen var inte öppen på eftermiddagen som utlovats

OK

Correct seulement pour une courte nuit

Nice friendly staff. Good place that also rent u a car if needed. within walking distance to Ortigia.

Hotel bien situé proche des lieux d'intérêt.... Accueil chaleureux et personnel très sympathique.... Facile de se garer dans les rues avoisinante...je précise séjour fin septembre....

Personnel très accueillant. WiFi trop faible dans la chambre du fond
