Room was very clean, comfy and felt like home. The family that ran the B&B was so kind and sweet. This is the place to stay if you are in Ortigia. It's a gem. The roof-top balcony gives you a breathe taking scene to look at while enjoying a simply yet delicious breakfast, which you can change daily. The Pistachio Croissants are delicious, I ate at least two each morning. You are feet from the water, restaurants and shops. If you are ever in need the family will help you in any way they can. I cannot state how kind they all are. They even printed out recommendations and offered to walk a couple to a place so they didn't get lost. A must stay if you are in Ortigia. We stayed for 4 days and would do it again. Love this B&B
