I stayed with Tony, who is very welcoming, friendly and helpful, for a few nights - I walked from Bari airport in about 45 minutes with no problem. I worked in the room for most of the day and explored nearby in the evenings - it’s a good, quiet neighbourhood with plenty of places to eat, a short walk to the sea and despite the unusual heat, I was very comfortable. If I find myself in town in future I hope I can stay again!
