This is a perfect apartment for one or two people looking for a seaside view. The balcony is the main attraction, of course, and it does not disappoint. The sight, smell and sound of the sea is incredible. If anyone has concerns about the sounds coming from the restaurant below and the cafe outside, I would say don't be - they are not very loud and disappear once you shut the doors. As for the rest of the apartment, it suited my needs perfectly. It was clean and comfortable. There was enough of everything in the kitchen, including basic utensils and ingredients (I cooked most nights). The bathroom was also great - stocked with the basics and the shower stall was roomy.
The apartment's location is also fantastic. Everything you need is nearby, including restaurants, markets, shops, cafes, etc. I will highlight the cafe right across the street - not only were the coffee and food great, but the owners/staff were delightful.
Finally, Marialessandra was a terrific host. Check-in and check-out were smooth, she was very communicative and, as others have noted, supplied us with local treats (focaccia barese, taralli, and prosecco). I would happily stay here again and would recommend this place strongly to others.
