It's hard to know where to begin, since Massimo's place was excellent in many respects! He responded almost instantly when we wanted to reach him; the space was very large (3BR, 2 BA) so the two of us could spread out luxuriously, plus the detailing in the rooms was very nice; the garage he provided was wonderful (we had a car); the location, in the historic center (less than a five-minute walk from everything!), was great; and he was a very gracious, helpful, and informative host. The restaurants he recommended, and other suggestions he made, were all outstanding. Finally--Brindisi, which we stayed in because of its central location in Puglia, turned out to be a delightful choice--clean, on the water, intriguing neighborhoods, restaurants, and shops.
