First of all , Valentina is a truly exceptional host. All communication was rapid and helpful, she picked us up from the bus station, and gave us a great introduction to her lovely apartment and to Lecce. We really warmed to her friendly personality. The apartment itself is ideally situated in a quiet courtyard but only a stone’s throw away from the Duomo square at the heart of the enchanting historic centre. The apartment ,in a very old building, is well furnished and equipped , clean and with fruit and other breakfast materials provided. One of the top street food outlets in Lecce is just around the corner and many good restaurants within a few minutes walk. Very highly recommended.
