Frommer's "Most rooms reflect the somewhat dowdy tastes of someone's Sicilian aunt: Lace curtains, high ceilings, comfy beds, and a definite sense of the south Italian bourgeoisie." Full review

DK Eyewitness "This elegant historic two-storey building on the harbour channel has a roof terrace fragrant with jasmine and bougainvillea... Some rooms have balconies overlooking the harbour."
Rough Guide "Family-run B&B in a tastefully renovated waterfront palazzo overlooking the channel between Ortigia and the mainland... Great home-made breakfasts."
Frommer's "This bright, stylish little inn occupies two floors of a seaside apartment house, beautifully refashioned as light-filled quarters with a slightly nautical flair, as befits the sparkling blue water just beyond the tall windows" Full review
