Fernando and Carla’s little place, in THE HEART of the historic center, is adorable--great location (close to everything). The pictures (outdoors and indoors) are very accurate. The place is tiny, but very comfortable and well equipped for a few days in Lecce. Carla, who is very friendly BTW, kindly picked us up from the bus station when we arrived. We had been traveling through Italy for over a month at that point, so it felt like a very special treat. The ceiling in the loft (the bedroom) was great; the bed comfortable and the linens were of good quality (heavy cotton etc.). The bathroom was awesome; however, the many knickknacks in there were very dusty. Two things you should know: 1) Fernando is INTENSE; and 2) IF you DEPEND on solid Internet connection during your stay, this would NOT be the place for you. Despite the claims, Internet access is sporadic (at best), and often not strong enough for sites to load up fully or to ensure a steady SKYPE connection. However, if you plan to come to Lecce to chill out, and disconnect from the 21st century for a few days, this would be an IDEAL place to do it.
