My husband and I stayed at Giovanni's apartment in Lecce for 4 weeks. It was fabulous! The apartment is huge and very nicely decorated. My husband (the cook in our family) used the kitchen a lot and loved the layout. There are two bathrooms, one upstairs and one downstairs, which is nice. The living room has a very comfortable sofa and it was fun to watch some Italian TV shows. The bed was very comfortable as well.

The location of the apartment is absolutely perfect! It's right outside of the historic center of Lecce -- within walking distance to the entire city (old and new). It's nice that it's outside the historic center because Lecce has a lot of nightlife, so I would imagine it gets very noisy in the center late at night. Giovanni's apartment was nice and quiet the entire time.

Lecce is a great hub for visiting Puglia in general. We loved it. The food, the scenery, the lovely little towns. It's a wonderful place that we will definitely be returning to in the future.
