We had a great experience a† Marco's place! The terrace is huge – bigger than we expected – and we spent much of our time in Lecce there for meals and to watch the sun set. The apartment itself is well furnished and comfortable, and the air conditioning was absolutely necessary for hot July days (and nights). The apartment is a short walk away from the main street of the old town, including the Piazza del Duomo. There is a mini-market a two minute walk away that has all the essentials for cooking, as well as a supermarket and the Mercato di Rudiae within five minutes walking. The train station and bus stop for buses to Gallipoli, Leuca, Otranto, etc are also a short walk away. We would absolutely recommend staying at Marco's place while visiting Lecce, or as a home base for exploring the rest of Salento!
