I'm so glad I found Mario & Marcella's apartment...it is fantastic! Located right in the heart of Old Town, it is in the middle of everything yet perfectly quiet with no noise from the street. It's very large and has a 2nd bedroom that would be great for a couple with a kid, too. The private terrace, decorated with cactus and lemon trees, is a wonderful place to have an evening cocktail before wandering around Lecce and having dinner. Best of all was the lovely Marcella! She is a really wonderful lady, and several times she brought over some of her home cooking to share with me and it was absolutely delicious! I highly recommend this place.
