Even though we arrived quite late in the day, Giovanni was waiting to help us find the apartment, find parking and get settled in. The apartment was exactly as described in the listing and was clean and ready. There were even some staples provided so that we would not have to scramble for breakfast food and COFFEE. The location of the apartment is just a minutes walk from the Porta to the old city. Plenty of things to see and do in Lecce and we never had a bad meal in any of the dozens of restaurants we tried. Giovanni is an excellent host who was always quick to respond to text or phone inquiries. In addition, his restaurant recommendations were spot on and greatly appreciated. Highly recommended and we look forward to returning some day.
