Gianfranco's apartment is a tiny pearl, furnished in a modern and elegant way I liked a lot. It's right in the old centre of the Cisternino, which is really one of the loveliest towns I've ever visited. The town is very lovely during the summer season and there's a bar just opposite the apartment but the window glass are so thick you can shut all the noise out just by closing it. You're also provided with essential kitchen tools and dressings, electric coffee moka and kettle.
Gianfranco was constantly in touch with us and he and his mom gave us hints on where to park (there are free parkings just two roads down just out of the old town), eat (the town is packed with any kind of local food restaurant and bars you can think about) and what to do (events, food shopping and so on). We sat outside in the small alley reading and chatting together. I would definitely recommend his house and choose it again if we'll be back in Cisternino :)
