The place was ideally situated, and a quick and enjoyable stroll from both the Basilica of St. Nicholas (main tourist attraction of the old town) and the piazza where most of the restaurants are located. A few more minutes walk took you to a more cosmopolitan shopping district, with clothing stores from Zara to Gucci.
The apartment itself was basic and simple, and spotless, with fully working wifi (always a pleasure). Nicola was a great host, and even took time to walk me to the Central train station like half a mile away to show me how to get there. He helped me buy my ticket for my next day's journey to the airport, and escorted me back to my door! He was also always available on message, which was very assuring. My experience here was great, and if you're gonna go Bari I think this is the place you want to stay.
