"Elettra" is in an ideal location for many sightseeing programs in Syracuse: it is right in front of the archaeological area and the Greek theater; it is on a street with shops (including an excellent bookstore); in ten minutes on foot you can reach the catacombs of San Giovanni and a small public garden. It is served by urban buses. By car, you can also quickly reach, for example, the promontory by the sea where the Monument to the Fallen in Africa stands. The manager is nice, punctual, and caring. In the apartment, it seemed to me that there was a lack of community space, like a small living room - kitchen. Speaking of the kitchen: is it really forbidden, in this type of tourist accommodation, to have a community corner with a coffee maker and an electric kettle?

I had a really pleasant stay at this establishment. The room was clean and comfortable. Donovan was very kind and helpful. The location was convenient for reaching all the places of interest to me. For those visiting the Greek Theatre, the Paolo Orsi Museum, or the Sanctuary, it is ideal. Recommended.
