I'm a 62 year old Italian American from Chicago.
I love EVERY Second of Staying there.
The B&B is in a Perfect location near both the main street in the Old Town and the Sea.
Perfect Location!
The Roof Terrace was Amazing.
My GF would go to sleep at a reasonable time but I did NOT come down from the Roof Terrace until late at night. I just took it all in and relaxed and played music up there.
It was Amazing during the Day and Night.
The pictures are ACCURATE.
The Reality of the Roof Top Terrace was even better.
The B&B was spotless and well equipped.
My Italian Cousin visited us and she cooked in the kitchen
We ate on the Terrace.
Parking was a short walk in lots and on the street.
EASY PARK app makes extended parking easy.
It was quite reasonable.
We used our Rental Fiat for trips to Bari, Lecce, and Ostuni. It's also an easy drive Matera and Alberobello. We did that too with my cousin.
The main street--Via Roma--is a short walk for the restaurants , bars, and little shops.
There is a piazza nearby the B&B that is quite nice with restaurants too.
Italians hangout in the Walkway by the B&B at night...a few...not alot...but that's Italy...so it ADDS to the Ambiance. It does NOT substract. They were always nice.
The B&B Neighbors are Italian residents of Polignano and were nice and HELPFUL to us on several times.
OK...for the old folks...I'm a 62 year old American and my GF is a 64 year old American (we are in fairly good shape)...from the Door leading in from the Outside to the Roof Terrace, you have walk up a narrow stairway THAT has TURNS.
So YOU have to figure out if YOU can do that. It's the Character of the B&B and other places nearby. YOU have to figure you if YOU can do that. I LOVED the Narrow Stairway!
From the Door in from the Outside, the stairway leads to the 1st Floor, which has a kitchen and bathroom with shower. From the 1st Floor, the stairway leads to the 2nd Floor which has a small living room with a TV and pullout sleeper/sofa. We had guests who slept on the pullout for 2 days and said it was comfortable. They used the 1st Floor Bathroom. From the 2nd Floor the stairway leads to the 3rd Floor, which has a Bedroom with a nice bed and Bathroom and shower. We used that floor. Very nice. From the 3rd Floor, the stairway leads to the Roof Terrace, which is Awesome.
If your REALITY as an older person is that you can NOT do the up and down of a narrow stairway, then you might not have as a good experience as I had.
It's a PERFECT place as a BASE Camp for Puglia and
I want to live there...again and again and again...until I can't do stairs.
