Best host I've ever had. Mario was extremely helpful even during the few days before i got there. He picked me up at the ferry port. And showed me everything I needed to know about the area. There is a great pizza place a 8 minute walk away. The bus goes directly to the old city. Mario even invited me to have dinner with his band which was so much fun. The room was perfect. Clean. I would definitely stay here again and recommend it to anyone staying in Bari.
