Giovanni was always ready to communicate to answer questions. He contacted us in advance to give us directions to his home and how we could gain access upon our arrival. He provided recommendations for activities and for restaurants. His apartment was quite quiet and comfortable. It has adequate cooking utensils should you wish to cook in the apartment. He has a lovely terrace from which you can see the sea. While we were in the apartment Giovanni contacted us a couple times to make sure all was good. He is an excellent host. If you go to Ostuni you should stay here.
