The room was clean, the host and staff were friendly, and the breakfast was everything needed. Especially, the host was always quick to respond to what was needed and resolved. If you ask me if I'd like to stay again, I'll answer by saying I've already booked again.

The room was very clean with a huge bathroom. We were able to drop off our luggage early in the morning at 7.30am for our matera tour. Without it our tour could not have been possible! The bed was comfortable and we had a sound sleep after a hectic day. They prepared a breakfast box for us since we had an early train next day which was too kind of them. There is a free cappucino machine which is always on and you can have it when you want. The place is very close to train station near McD like 3mins walk and there is a nearby Gyoza shop which was so good! I am happy that I booked this place which help a lot in my early morning trains and tours. The wifi worked seamlessly, which is again a plus point.

Great experience - the owner very carefully sent a short detailed video about access to the apartments - which allowed us to comfortably settle in without direct contact. The apartments are new, clean and cozy with a mini balcony. The apartments are only 15 minutes from the oldtown of Bari. We recommend!

The property was very well equipped and very clean. We wanted a place that allowed us to travel from one place to another and its location was perfect for this, only a ten minute walk to a station. We also wanted to be able to cook some meals to budget and the facilities were perfect for this. There is a local supermarket and cafe for your daily essentials. Would recommend this place to stay.

The apartment is super nice, modern and very clean. The bathroom is great and so is the kitchen corner with the utensils, fridge and everything available for home cooking. The bottle of wine is a great addition from the host. The location of the apartment is ideal. The stairs to the flat are great challenge, but fun. The host is super helpful and communicative.

Everything was perfect - the apartment was beautiful, spacious, comfortable and very clean. It had 2 bedrooms, air conditioning and everything we needed for our stay. It was in a great location, walking distance of the old town, shoos, restaurants and the No 16 bus stop to the airport was 1 min walk. The hosts were a pleasure to deal with, very obliging and the complimentary bottles of prosecco and water were really appreciated.
