The pros: The trulli we were given was impeccably clean and beautify equipped. Mariano apologised he could not meet us in person but we were met by a lovely family, the daughter spoke very good English and they gave us some great touring advice.

The cons: When we booked we were given an address of Zara 7, when we arrived we were actually given Zara 9 smaller of the two. Neither of the two however were the one advertised on Airbnb site. Our Trullo did not have a fireplace, nor Internet.

Mariano did try to correct the issue after we raised our disappointment that it was not the one advertised yet even the advertised one did not have wi fi unless you went to the local café or town square. Mariano said that the advertised place had a plumbing issue however it was corrected and he offered us the opportunity to stay in the one advertised on the second day of our 4 day stay. We were advised that if we changed to the Trullo that was advertised, we would need to pay an additional 30 euros if we wished to use the fireplace.

Alberobello is a fascinating and welcoming town and really worth a visit.
