This is a really great place to stay. It has all the facilities you need, in fact my husband was able to cook a couple of times in the kitchen. Someone had written in an earlier review that they had trouble with the hot water, but we did not. There is a little balcony to sit and enjoy an aperitivo overlooking the lovely little courtyard.
The location is great, it is a few steps from the Cathedral and not far from a great cafe (Cafe Roma). The first beach is a very short walk and there are many restaurants and bars within easy walking distance. Whilst it is close to a lot of action, it is very quiet at night.
Francesco is lovely and is really fast to respond to messages, check in was very easy.
We would definitely recommend staying here when visiting Monopoli - I wouldn't stay anywhere else.
