When we arrived in Lecce we had just come from a rather contempory apartment in Bari. We found Andrea's apartment to be just as charming as the pervious apartment. It is several centuries old, with modern updates, that still has a bit of an old world feel to it. We thoroughly enjoyed being there. Andrea was very gracious in meeting us at the apartment and offered excellent suggestions regarding restaurants. The apartment is strategically located for all of the important sites to see in Lecce. If you arrive by car, be advised that parking can be a bit of a problem. We always found a place to park the twice we needed to but it took several trips around the block.
