Some suggestions are in order.
1st Emanuela was very good and helpful. But some issues should be addressed. The wifi did not reach the bedroom; you should get a better modem/router. It's not good that you can't read in bed! There should be some booklet of information. Instead there was a worthless, for me, one sheet dictating rules IN FRENCH. I am fluent in English and Italian, but not French. Emanuela gave verbal instructions at check-in, but you must realize that check-in is probably a time after travel which can be hectic. FOr instance, the taxista dis nor know the street and this caused some difficulties. The microwave did not work. Only because there was some problem with the plug. That shouldn't happen. The heater was a mystery; a booklet explaining it would be helpful. There was an unlabeled wall switch that turned off the hot water, which I mistakenly turned off looking for a light switch. Emanuela had warned me about that, but I forgot. Having that info in a booklet would be good. Paper or cloth napkins would be good. Good points: the location was good, the bed was fine, the bathroom was good. The kitchen was functional. The history of Siracusa is amazing.

Loved it!!!
Beautiful clean apartment. Perfect location. Quiet sleep. I would recommend if you are not fortunate to have the caretaker pick you up at the bus stop, save yourself a lot of time and hassle and just spend 10 euro for a taxi directly to the apartment and not initially try to catch the local bus from there. I loved Ortagia and will have the best memories. Highly recommend this apartment.

The apartment is small but immaculate and very well located. The only issue with it is its groundfloor position, which makes privacy impossible if you open the windows for light.

Spacious apartment, friendly greeting, good location
Gianluca and Giovanni were very helpful and welcoming. They met us at the bus terminal in Siracuse and took us to the apartment, which was spacious, clean and comfortable. They pointed out the local bathing places and shop to us. The apartment is located in a quiet side street within easy walking distance of Ortigia's many excellent restaurants, cafes and tourist attractions. The only reason for the 4* rather than 5* rating is that the apartment has no view and nowhere to sit outside.

Perfect location, spacious, clean and equipped apartment
The location of this apartment is fantastic. The sea is just around the corner along with the Main Street and piazza and the less touristy old Jewish quarter. The apartment is spacious, well equipped and comfortable. Adele's communication was very reliable and helpful. We were picked up at where we left the car and driven to the apartment (permanent resident only allowed to park in Ortigia)

Ideal for Ortigia
Residence Calarossa is right in the heart of Ortigia and has all the facilities we needed. The owner's representative, Gianluca, met our bus from Catania airport and took us to the apartment and made us very welcome. Excellent value for money. Chris & Barbara Robinson, Lymington, Hampshire, UK.

Great apartment in great location!
We enjoyed our stay in this convenient apartment in Ortygia. Everything was spotless and the bed was extremely comfortable. It is obvious that Adele and Flora want your stay to be pleasant. The location is ideal. There is a local bus that takes you around the island and links to Siracusa. The island is charming with the beautiful Doumo, fountains, ancient ruins, and even a swimming platform to swim in the ocean (a short walk from the apartment). We had a wonderful time and highly recommend the apartment.

Posizione ottima
L’appartamento è arredato bene, la posizione è al centro di Ortigia, la gentilezza del proprietario è veramente fantastica. L’unica cosa di cui mi lamento è la pulizia, purtroppo non rispecchiava i miei canoni di igiene e la casa è molto umida.
