Paola’s place is in the ancient part of Bari but also just a short walk to the new area with its perks. We loved having easy access to both. We arrived directly from the US so we were jet lagged and tired. Finding parking and navigating a new country/city was a little challenging in that condition but we found our way. It would have been helpful to know the exact location of the large pay parking lot at the municipal building very close by. Easy walk from there! The home was beautiful with everything we needed and we appreciated the coffee, tea, wine and treats that were waiting for us upon arrival. The neighborhood is friendly and fun to explore! Lots of cafes, gelaterias and restaurants very close by. We would highly recommend this place to anyone who wants to experience Bari’s food and culture. Thanks Paola!
