We stayed in four different airbnb apartments during our recent trip to Italy. They were all good, but Paola's is really exceptional. Paola is a lovely host-- easy going, helpful, and since she lives upstairs she is available. We had something leaking in a backpack, which made a stain on her white sofa. We were mortified, but she was un-phased, "tranquile" she said, don't worry about it. The apartment is beautiful, the kitchen is well equipped with everything you need, and more. The bedroom is comfortable, the linens beautiful, and the bathroom is elegant. Good wifi for those who worry about staying connected. The entrance is in a private courtyard in the middle of beautiful Lecce. This is a 5-star accommodation for a modest price. We would go back in a heartbeat. Thanks Paola for a great visit!
