Location, location, location. The apartment is near many of the major sites to see in Lecce.
It was bigger than I expected and had super charming ceilings. The kitchen is quirky in a good way and is the best room in the house during the day because of all the sunlight. The bathroom is down a hallway with a glass roof which also leads to a private mini patio. I traveled solo and it had everything I needed. Francesco and Lucia were super nice, super responsive, and kindly accommodated an early arrival. Would definitely recommend, and would sty there again!
