This flat is lovely, and the terrace is amazing. It’s convenient, spacious and has everything you need. Francesco is also really helpful and responsive.
Unfortunately the location of the flat does make sleep very difficult - we’re two Londoners, so we’re used to a bit of noise, but this was tough. It’s right in the heart of the old town, so you get all the hustle and bustle of the place during the day and evening, but the streets directly below (specifically a bar / cafe and a very loud panzerotti place - think kebab house) don’t really clear until 2am on the weekend, and the cathedral bells are very loud at 6:30am in the morning. With all the windows shut it still sounds like they are in the room. Unfortunately this made it really difficult to sleep, even with ear plugs, especially on Friday - Sunday.
I realise that francesco can’t silence Bari or control the crowds outside... but a bit more soundproofing in the bedroom would have made the stay perfect. As it was, I wish we’d known how loud it would have been beforehand.
You should definitely still consider staying here, but maybe not if you are a light sleeper or you struggle to sleep with ear plugs. Everything else about the flat is perfect, including the location.
