Clean, comfortable stay in the heart of the Ortigia Island area of Syracuse. Helpful and friendly staff. Great breakfast and rooftop bar area. We coordinated with the hotel for valet parking which was helpful given density of the area and limited parking options. Convenient location with easy access to most of the key sites in the area.
