    Very central to everything, very cool even in the hottest day. Salvo provided us with lots of local information and everything we required.

    A little outdoor setting would be ideal as the accommodation is quite compact and it is a lovely little lane way to enjoy.

    The location was amazing, so central yet still quiet. The host provided very comprehensive information and was available online to answer any questions. Nice cosy apartment and cool even though it was very hot outside. Convenient being on the ground floor.

    All great!

    The location is perfect in the historical center of Siracusa. Our host was super kind and gave us a lot of useful information about the city and places to visit and eat. It was clean and the place has everything of importance.

    Very helpful, generous host. Good location. Convenient location for public transport and taxis. Quiet area, a stone throw from the temple to Apollo. Large comfortable bed. Good sized shower. No stairs!

    We arrived at night and the place was difficult to find. It was actually located in a cross street lane to via resalibera. A diagram would help. We found the apartment to be small but comfortable.

    It is a small authentic apartment in the old town. Fantastic location. It was quiet and had all the facilities we needed for a stay of two nights over Christmas. I never met the host Salvo, but the information to check in was clear and easy to understand and as we were travelling by car they very kindly showed where we could park for free. Upon arrival we had a Panettone gift, as it was Christmas, and a voucher for breakfast at a local bar which was very kind. The host Salvo was always available for my questions so I would definitely recommend staying here.

    Nothing ot suited our needs.

    Thanks to Salvo and his recommendations and tips we had a great time in his accommodation. He was helpful and always available, making sure we had a good holiday. When we arrived there was a surprise - a little souvenir and free breakfast in a cafè nearby, which was a nice touch! The place is nicely decorated with a fully equipped kitchen with all the necessities but we never used it. Location of the Rosalia house is great - in a quiet little street, but at the same time close to all the main sights and monuments. It is also close to the mainland of Syracuse - we often visited it for bigger stores. Highly recommend this cozy little place!

    Great little studio to base yourself in the old town Siracusa. Small but comfy. 15 mins walk to and from the bus / train station. Nice to be amongst the old town vibe. Very lovely owner, although never met, who left a lovely breakfast voucher for a nearby cafe - much aporeciated :)

    No windows or view as at street level but typical for Sicily old town.

    Rosalia House is situated in a very good pleace of Ortiggia, only some minutes from every attraction, Salvo, our host, provided all the necessary info before the arrival, so the self check in went very smoothly. He left us some nice gifts ( two magnets of Siracusa) and a voucher for breakfast in a nice caffe nearby (where the” cornetto con la ricotta or con la marmellata” is very delicious. Thank you Salvo! There is nice beach ( only 10 minutes of walk) Diana where the sea was very clean. Who likes to jump from the rocks to the sea, here it is also possible. There also some nice restaurants with perfect fish foods close to the beach. Also I recommend to try the best granita with the briosche in Gelateria Bianca.

    The only thing which can be a bit unpleasant, the musty smell inside the house which can be hardly eliminated because there are no big windows in the house ( only a little one ).

    The host Salvo is the best person you can wish for! He is a very warm, friendly, and trustable person, who gives you vouchers for free breakfast and good tips about restaurants and sightseeings. The little charming house in a wonderful small alley, gives a perfect Sicilian atmosphere. On a very short distance, a good swim in the sea. And a very nice lady neighbour!

    Rosalia’sHouse is one of a kind. It’s small but cosy, the location could not be better on a quiet side street two steps away from Apollo’s Temple in Ortigia. Clean, super cosy, great air con and WiFi. Salvo is host that goes beyond the call of duty to make one feel comfortable and the place was full of little touches that showed his care for the place. He threw in two free breakfasts for me at Caffé Ortigia, definitely the best place for breakfast and 3 minutes away from the house. Renting this place was the best decision I made in my holidays.

    Nothing.

    It was a charming small apartment with nice local decor elements. It was in an old town area, from where you could easily walk to all the parts of the island. It was not far from the train and main bus stations (15 min walk, but it was comfortable to reach the apartment). Although we didn't see the host Salvo, but he was always there with his advice and care. There were 2 magnets as a present a breakfast voucher for 2 people from a cafe near the place. We enjoyed our stay in a beautiful, elegant and charming Siracusa.

    Everything was fine.

    Loved the uniqueness of this place, fantastic location and such good value. The host was so helpful on WhatsApp giving us all sorts of information for our stay! Really great free breakfast at nearby cafe.

    I appreciate this is a very old building in a very old city, but the overpowering smell of damp was not pleasant! Only one small window open to a courtyard to get some fresh air.
