A very basic hotel.
The hotel was conveniemtly located in Siracusa. The room service was excellent. But the bed pillow, however, was very flat and uncomfortable as well as the bed matress.

Better hotels elsewhere in Syracuse
Just stay somewhere else, plain and simple.

Good value for money
This hotel is good value-for-money in a good location. It is about a 10 minute walk from the train station, equal walking distance to Ortigia island and the archaeological park (20 minutes), and reasonably close to supermarkets and restaurants. Staff were friendly and easy to deal with.

ESKO, 10-night trip

4/10 Fair

Room and bath were clean, but they smelled of heavy smoking activity. Too cold to keep balcony door open to air out room. No warm or hot water for shower on last day. Breakfast was sparse by all Sicilian hotel and B@B standards. Just a croissant and a coffee of choice. Both were good, however. Shower glass enclosure leaked which is a problem in many places in Sicily. Housekeeping was great. Very quiet location. Location is great for walks to Old Siracusa and the island. Beds very comfortable. Lighting good. WIFI, heat and AC great and work well. All in all, a mixed bag.

Not great
Uncomfortable bed, very loud refrigerator in the room, annoying during night. We were told breakfast was from 7.30 to 10h. We came downstairs little after 7.30 (we were in a hurry to catch a flight), but there was nobody there and no breakfast set up. We left around 7.45 and the woman just started setting everything up... so we left without breakfast. Very unprofessional! Good location, not far from the old city center. Free parking in the street. Room was clean, but not big.

You get what you pay for
You get what you pay for. It’s cheap, so it won’t be a 5 star place. I had a room on the second/top floor. Bit old but clean, although non smoking you could smell that in the past it had been a smoking room. Annoyingly, qifi never worked in my room once when I was there. Breakfast is basic. I parked in front of the hotel, on the street without issue. Location is in walking distance of the old part of town, travelled as a woman alone and felt safe.

Two steps away from Ortigia (8 minutes only)
There was a light smell of smoke from previous guests probably. The hot water in the shower is reversed. A part from that, everything has been nice, the deal I got was cheap and the location was wonderful
