Elena's place is lovely, very homely and cosy and has everything we needed, we especially loved the rooftop terrace with lovely sea views, there are 4 small flights of stairs to the various floors so maybe wouldn't suit families with small children or anyone who find stairs difficult. There is a gin bar opposite the house, which was quite lively until the early hours at the weekend, so ear plugs are recommended unless you are going to stay out late yourself, we'd been travelling a fair way so had a earlier than normal night! We were impressed with the service from our hosts who provided us with car parking at a reasonable fee and transport to and from the car park free of charge, gave us a detailed map and lots of suggestions for places to visit and eat, their office was about 5 metres from the house so was very handy if we had needed anything! Would definitely recommend a visit to Elena's place and the beautiful town of Polignano a Mare.
