You need to park about 5 minute walk away from the apartment and carry your luggage in. It is worth it though for the fabulous location and to stay at this well appointed apartment.

Incredible apartment and fantastic hosts. This place is a real gem. The apartment was spacious, modern and beautifully decorated. The owners were very kind and were available to give tips on what to do in the local area. This was one of our favorite stays in Sicily.

Set of only 1 key

Omg this place was a true beautiful experience. I have never met nicer hosts that made us feel like family. The accommodations were second to none with great working ac which was needed for the hot days. We had the spectacular breakfast homemade by Fausta which was outstanding! She was so responsive quickly & answered any questions I had. I already can't wait to return as the apartments are situated close to the Duormo & easy access to the market. Thank you to Fausta & her husband for making it a great vacation! You set the bar high!

Beautiful apartment with interesting artwork. It’s better than the pictures, very central, surrounded by lots of restaurants. Fausta and her husband were incredible, fast to respond to any questions, excellent recommendations, and even organized transportation for my sister who was not staying with us, just perfect !

The hosts (Fausta and Elio) are friendly and do their best for your needs. The apartment was really cute, wide, and with a nice AC. The kitchen was full of all the equipment to cook with. Also, the location is in the heart of Ortigia.

Really, nothing!

We loved everything about this place. Perfect location, warm, friendly and helpful hosts who gave us a little welcome packet, room was clean and beautifully designed. We also appreciated the history of the building and the family who owned it. Great place for people who love books and writing.

Don’t hesitate to book this apartment! From the attentive and helpful hosts Fausta and her husband, to every thoughtful detail in the space, everything was exceptional. The apartment is incredibly comfortable and perfectly located, just steps away from everything you could need. The hosts provided great recommendations and a thorough overview of the area, making the stay even better.

We liked everything!

The property is very close to the Duomo and Piazza Archimede. It’s in the middle of an area with many shops and restaurants. Inside the apartment building, it is creatively decorated. The breakfast menu was carefully chosen. The hosts were very welcoming and warm.

The mini apartment we booked was spacious and very nice. As soon as you step out of the building entrance you are right in the center, a few meters away from the Duomo. The little terrace was very pleasant with a great view of Ortigia. A/C worked perfectly. The kitchen had all we needed although we only used the coffee machine in the morning. Hosts were super friendly, attentive and very professional. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Well positioned, very spacious apartment (3 bed) extremely well kitted-out and with lovely hosts. Quirky, fun, imaginative decor designed by the publisher-owners. On a busy pedestrianised street but very quiet.

Not only is the location strategic and access is quite easy, the building also comes with a fascinating story and has unique decor with charming and creative personal touches. I can't think of anything to dislike about it.

A spacious clean apartment in the very centre of Ortigia with a view of Etna 100k away. Fausta and Elio are the most considerate hosts and helped tremendously with making us welcome and developing our travel plans. Loved our stay, very highly recommended.

Gorgeous appartment in an amazing location right in the center of Ortigia. Unique book theme throughout the building. Very kind hosts who provided excellent recommendations for restaurants, and a close vineyard to visit. The beds and pillows were SO comfortable! Highly recommend!

The best place we stayed during our trip around Sicily! Great location, stylish spacious apartment with everything you need for a comfort stay. Loved the common library and the vibe of the whole house. We had no balcony or view from the apartment, but we did not mind as it was so nice inside and had good “pasticeria” with outside seating downstairs.
