Luigi had to be away in Lecce for most of my stay, which was a shame as he is a very genial, welcoming and helpful host. He is also vety knowledgeable about Taranto, and is happy to pass on his information with his excellent English. I would recommend Luigi very highly as a host. The apartment is comfortable and pleasant, with a very well-equipped kitchen. It is linked to historic centre of Taranto by bus, as well as the train and bus stations.
