What more can I say than 5 stars in every way - I would give 10 stars if I could! Daniele is such a friendly, kind, approachable and helpful person who is more than just a host. He responded to our challenging arrival and departure very promptly making life so much easier for us. The apartment is spotless and very roomy indeed with great amounts of storage space. There are two flights of stairs to reach the front door but this was not a problem for us. The flat is located in a central part of town, right next to a pasticceria so there is never a shortage of delicious and irresistible bread, focaccia, cornetti and other pastries available. Supermarkets, castle, museum, theatre, sea front all easy walking distance. For anyone considering a base in Puglia to explore other regions, this apartment in Taranto is certainly worth considering. We didn't have a car but saw there are many side streets with both free and paid parking available. Grazie mille Daniele..alla prossima!
