My friends and I felt very well in Alessandra's house (we stayed for 3 nights in June 2017). Alessandra's father helped us checked in and familiarise with the house and the area. The house is very well located, being at 15-20 minutes driving from Monopoli. It is very large and has a nice outdoor space.
I am not sure if this is a permanent situation, but when we used the house there was a musty smell around (probably due to mold), which was pretty disturbing (especially during the nights). Unless this situation is solved, I would not recommend spending a large period of time (especially with kids).
