Much difference between the description and the photos and the reality of the room is humid. I can't understand why cleaning fees have to be paid separately and in cash.

The location is great - 5 minutes from the bridge, and like everywhere in Ortigia, it is close to everything. Our hostess was easily reachable and responded quickly. The TV in the bedroom did not work. The TV in the living room was hard to figure out but it worked. The bedroom smelled of smoke when we arrived, maybe because of smokers in the area right outside the bedroom window. Halfway through our stay we asked for new towels and they were delivered the same day, but the wet ones were not removed, so we had a pile of wet/stinking towels for 2 days. This is beyond the host's control, but a cat that lives in the shared space behind the bedroom is extremely loud and yowls all night. I have never heard a cat that loud before. It kept us awake, but as I said it's not the host's cat. \nNotes for visitors to Ortigia/Siracusa from the US (not new to us, but might be to you): you cannot drink the tap water so you must buy bottled water. You cannot put anything down the toilet that doesn't come out of your body (no toilet paper!) so put TP into the garbage can and learn to use the bidet.

Excellent location and welcoming structure of La Corte di Aretusa, located in an alley of the historic center of Ortigia easily accessible from every part of the island. We really felt good in the little house that we immediately felt like “ours” from the first moment of our arrival. We will always keep a nice memory. Also to highlight the attractive price, the availability and kindness of the owner Barbara.

Questa casa famiglia si é rivelata una vera chicca! Arredata con gusto ed eleganza, bella anche nei minimi particolari, bagno grande e veramente comodo, é situata al centro di Ortigia e quindi puoi raggiungere tutto velocemente. In più c'é da aggiungere la cortesia e disponibilità della signora Barbara che ci ha accompagnati in sede al nostro arrivo, ci ha fatto trovare parcheggio, ci ha subito suggerito come muoverci ad Ortigia, ed é sempre stata in contatto con noi quando abbiamo chiesto qualche suggerimento. C'é tutto il necessario anche per cucinare, due Tv, condizionatore, nonostante la casa sia abbastanza fresca, collegamento internet ottimo. Siamo stati bene e lo consigliamo vivamente!

Nei giorni 1 e 2 Luglio siamo stati ospiti della Casa vacanze Corte di Aretusa. La proprietaria signora Barbara è il punto di forza della struttura. La sua naturale simpatia mette subito a proprio agio. L’appartamento a pochi passi dal centro è molto grazioso, pulito e fornito di tutti i confort. Consigliatissimo. Speriamo di poter ritornare.
