It’s a pretty cool opportunity to stay in the old town of Bari, and having a jacuzzi in your Airbnb is always a treat.
However, I recommended for Arianna to consider improving the air circulation and the Wi-Fi in the unit. This is a basement unit with no cell-phone reception inside. On the other hand, the Wi-Fi signal was also so weak that I was unable to call, and websites loaded very slowly on my phone. Regarding the air, air circulation is always a problem with basements, and I am hoping that Arianna can make some improvements there.
A couple tips for future visitors:
- you can park your car at Piazzale Cristoforo Colombo, a few minutes away. Anywhere in the parking lot is fine. Parking is free at night, from 8:30 pm until 8:30 am, as well on the weekends, and you can pre-pay for the next parking period (I.e when you feed money into the parking machine at midnight for example, it will calculate the parking length from the next time the clock starts ticking, which is 8:30 am.)
- Myra bistrot, also a few steps away, is an underrated and hidden spot for dinner and lunch. They are also open quite late.
- Mastro Ciccio is an interesting burger bar if you feel like experimenting. I also recommend the Pupozze, which is a fantastic invention: salty dough balls fried in oil.
