    The room was big and elegant with amazing view, touch via whatsapp, for instance, just what was needed. I truly enjoyed great location right by Porto Piccolo. The property was set in a really quiet area.

    Well, Wi-Fi was kind of slow.

    Great host who provided helpful recommendations and answered all our questions. The breakfast on the terrace with a sea view was a nice touch. The location was convenient as it was a short walk to the old town and had a good view. The room was spacious, tastefully decorated, and had a nice balcony. The self-service breakfast had a wide variety of options and even included a kettle and toaster.

    The key for the electricity was inconvenient as it was attached to other keys and couldn't be detached. The mattress was very firm and uncomfortable to sleep on.

    Featuring free WiFi throughout the property, this bed and breakfast made sure I didn't have to feel disconnected from the outside world. It was like having a virtual travel companion, always there to help and guide me during my stay.

    Electricity key inconvenience.

    The Arete B&B in Syracuse is a great choice for those wanting to be close to the beach. The property is well-maintained and run by a friendly host who ensures a memorable stay. The rooms are beautiful, spacious, and clean, with a small but nice balcony overlooking the harbor. The location is convenient, with easy access to Ortigia and free parking nearby. The level of cleanliness is impressive, and the staff is extremely helpful and welcoming. Breakfast is a highlight, with delicious croissants, good coffee, and a wide variety of options.

    Felt very lucky, nothing to complain about.
