We stayed in the apartment for one month - it was a perfect base for exploring Lecce and the rest of the Salento. It is only a few minutes walk to one of the gates of the centro storico, so it is very convenient but also quiet. The apartment is spacious, modern and light, with lots of outdoor space perfect for breakfast or dinner. It is well equipped for self-catering. There are plenty of good cafes, bars and restaurants close to the apartment. Although there is no parking (only short-stay) outside the apartment we parked on a street a few minutes walk away which was free and convenient. Giulia was an amazing host, she gave us a lot of recommendations for sights in Lecce and beaches in the region when we first arrived. Partway through our trip my boyfriend had a medical emergency and Giulia was brilliant, she came to the hospital with us and helped communicate with the doctors. We’re so grateful for all her help!
