I cannot fault my stay with Vilma she immediately makes a guest feel comfortable and welcome. The accomodation is clean, neat and spacious with exceptional attention to detail such as toothpaste and shampoo, soap, towels etc perfect for people who only travel with hand luggage such as myself. My bed was very comfortable and the room which is a twin room has a lovely view of the coast with ample space for storarge and enough room for me to do my morning yoga routines. The appartment is airconditioned and the wifi is great a good speed with bandwith enough to watch movies (no buffering). I was initially considering staying in the old city but I am very glad I elected to stay with Vilma as although apartments in the old city may look more romantic but in regard to space and access there are limitations. Vilma's appartment in Plaza Genova is only a 10 - 15 minute walk from the centre of town and old city. There is a lift to the fourth floor appartment and most importantly there is parking availalble directly below where you can be assured of not incurring a fine. Amenities such as a supermarket and a great bakery below in the Plaza are immediately available and a trendy cocktail bar and cafe, launderette and mail and printing service are all on the doorstep. Access to all the main roads in and out of Ostuni are also very easy from this location. Vilma's local knowledge is impecable as I am considering purchasing property it was invaluable. She was kind enough to organise for me to view a Trulli and through contacts was able to provide information regarding planing and building restrictions. She also provides a range of maps and tourist information which was particularly useful in planning day trips.
Vilma provides really good coffee for breakfast and pastries. She was also kind enough to teach me how to use a Mocca pot. On a personal note I would really like to thank her for her assistance as I had a minor accident with my hire car and she was kind enough to act as a translator and phone the hire company and police for me. Her assistance was invaluable and she enabled me to continue with my holiday without further concern. This was my first Air bnb experience and I cannot rate Vilma's hosting skills highly enough, she was never intrusive but always there to assist and have a friendly chat at the end of busy day. Thank you very much indeed!
