Reviews from visitors:
Very good location! The house is in the historic part of Siracusa. There are many restaurants, shop just a few minutes walking from the house. The house/apartment itself is quiet.
The owner lives there, he was very friendly and helpful. Even he did not speak too much English but we could understand each others (with the most difficult things he used google translation on his tablet) - if we want, we can solve problems instead of creating them.
We washed our clothes (spent 2 week in Sicilia, and this was our middle hotel).
The bathroom was also beautiful, refurbished.
The whole apartment was full with lovely decorations.
There is a parking facility just 3 minutes walking away; it is good for the rental cars.
The closest mini beach is just about 100 m from the apartment.
There is a shop also just couple of minutes from the apartment where the most basic products are available and where the guy makes good sandwiches.
There was no wifi in the apartment. Signal was too weak, our phones, tablets always dropped the connection. Unfortunately, there was very poor phone signal as well; this is not problem of the owners. So, actually, we were almost completely disconnected as in the apartment the mobile data did not work as well.
There is a very lovely atrium; we were there and used wifi when we had to check something.
Other minus point is the breakfast. We received a coupon to a nearby shop. For the coupon we received just one piece of sweet product and a drink or coffee/cappuccino. This was not really enough... Even coupon in the nearby shop for the sandwiches would have been better.
Very beautiful and centrally located building. The apartment is large but very basic price / quality is fine.
WiFi is very bad and almost no 4G reception.
The Gancia suite is a delightful apartment overlooking the sea, in the heart of Ortigia. Clean, well furnished and with a spectacular view, it is enriched by a splendid mural representing the temple of Selinunte, signed by Luigi Drago, an artist from Syracuse. Kindness, education and availability. Recommended
Magical place and beautiful courtyard in a 1500 building. One of a kind
The booking com photos are somewhat misleading. The photos show apartments with balconies and a view of the sea. Unfortunately the rooms are in the back of the building. No balcony and no view. The two windows gave views of two walls that are one meter away. You feel locked up a bit. The 9.2 rating is also somewhat exaggerated.
