We spent five days at Katharina’s charming apartment, which is situated in a great location, just inside the Lecce’s old city walls. If you re driving, you will need to park outside the inner-city zone, but Katharine suggested suitable parking places for us and it was easy and cheap. The accommodation is perfect for a couple, has heaps of character, a spacious bedroom and living rooms with high-domed ceilings, renovated bathroom and kitchen and an outdoor space upstairs. We would love to have more fully taken advantage of this lovely feature, but it was quite windy when we were visiting, though the view across the city rooves is great.
The apartment is situated on the first floor, so you will need to walk up narrow staircase to access the apartment. Immaculately clean and stylishly decorated, the bedroom has a comfortable bed, the bathroom abundant hot water and a washing machine, all per the listing description. The kitchen is quite small and has some kitchen basics and equipment such as a three-quarter sized fridge, full stove-top and oven and also a dishwasher. However, good restaurant options are plentiful in Lecce and also very close-by, so we didn’t need to spend too much time cooking at home.
Communication was swift and easy throughout. Katharina’s uncle was there to give us a friendly welcome on arrival and show us the apartment and tell us a few things about the local area amenities. If you are visiting in Lecce, I would recommend Katharina’s apartment as a great, convenient base to explore the city.
