    Location is perfect. Near the duomo, easy to access. Having a ground floor apartment was great (no steps). The pictures on line make the place look great and it really is. The responsiveness of the property was prompt and helpful.

    Very few/small windows. This is difficult to avoid in such an ideal location in an old city.

    The apartment is architecturally beautiful, very clean and in a really ideal location. Matteo was incredibly responsive and helpful in so many ways. We really enjoyed our time in the city.

    No, it's a perfect house!

    Located in the heart of the old city of Oritigia, the host called valet parking for us. The location is extremely good, everything is within walking distance. The room is an old building renovation, with a great sense of design and aesthetics. The room is spacious, clean and well-equipped. Highly recommended!

    Beautifully restored historical building in the middle of all the action

    • Stayed 5 nights

    The upstairs room is definitley for more fit or younger visitors as the staircase is tricky and narrow and the ceiling heights are low. It is also partly open to the shared area, so they will hear noise when others get up. The beds are a bit hard, and also a bit short, but we have seen this a few times in southern Europe.

    Location was great with restaurants and shops only meters away. The atmosphere inside and outside is amazing. The living areas are generously proportioned. Matteo helped us with all of our questions and was a wonderful host.

    Casa Scina is a beautifully restored house right in the heart of the old town, brilliant location, beautifully decorated with all mod cons, everything you need, and extremely comfortable beds. Matteo was extremely helpful with extra stuff like where to watch the Rugby World Cup final, parking, etc. I'd highly recommend this accommodation! It's stunning!

    No it was all perfect

    Just a perfect location near the piazza - less than 50 metres. Our host welcomed us & gave us a complete run through of the apartment & the region. Also helped with valet parking which was only 5 euros more than parking a long way away.

    The location is superb, right in the middle of Ortiga, so everything is right at your door step. The apartment is very well finished and comfortable down to the very last details. The owners are very responsive and ready to help for anything that might crop up. We truly loved this place and have no difficultly in recommending it and look forward to returning in the future.

    Nothing, my recommendation is to anyone visiting this wonderful city (particularly Ortigia) to stay in this beautiful apartment supported by an incredible host.

    Very stylish apartment in the perfect location. As a family, we loved the apartment, and the location just enhanced the experience. Mattteo was an expectional host and really helped us in a new location that we will have forever fond memories.

    This place is outstanding particularly for the fabulous location to be within the heart of Ortegia. Ansolutely incredible - so convenient, spacious and unique. The place itself has tonnes of history and interesting architectural features. The hosts were so helpful. The owners daughter went out of her way to help us on multiple occasions suggesting where to visit etc. she kept in touch throughout our 5 day stay. We stayed in August, a family of 5 and our 3 teenagers were able to go in and out of the property into the local area very easily and safely even late at night . The owners were incredibly helpful on our last day with offering us a great option for our bags when we had to leave our bags somewhere. Absolutely loved this place. I fell in love with Ortegia and staying here was part of it. Thank you to our hosts and their daughter.

    Fantastic location, beautiful design, great hosts

    • Stayed 2 nights

    Super design work, but little things like the toilet flusher kept getting stuck, requiring to take off cover every time after flushing. Had a few roaches that came to visit, likely because there are restaurants around property. Loft bedroom lacks lights on the nightstand, you have to get up to turn on lights on the wall, hit my head a few times on the low-hanging beams in the dark. There are no windows to open besides two small window slots in guest room and bedroom. There is a window in the living room (up high), but apartment doesn't have a lot of natural day light coming in, nor can you let a breeze in, which requires you to operate the lights and AC around the clock.

    Fantastic location, step out the door and fall right into restaurants and action. Design is wonderful, an open glass-covered old well inside the apartment, beam-covered loft, beautiful stone work, a bit like inside an Architecture magazine expo. Hosts were super nice and helpful. Great kitchen with all the utensils to cook bigger meals. Hosts helped us arrange for car parking thru a valet service, this worked better than expected, it does add EUR 20 per day but well worth it.

    Perfect location. Met by the hosts who kindly helped us unload our bags and park nearby. Great communication. The apartment exceeded expectations and was comfortable, stylish and peaceful despite being very centrally located. We would definitely stay again and highly recommend. Ortigia is beautiful and well worth a visit. Hope to stay longer next time!
