Communication was easy before and during our stay in lovely Lecce. We arranged our arrival time with Paola which Paola was very flexible with, and her husband, Mario arrived at the meeting place at exactly the right time, then we followed him through the maze of streets, parked our car and then he kindly transported our bags with us to the front door of the apartment. What more could we ask for! Grazie Mille! And then, what a breathtaking, fabulously renovated apartment which manages to retain the old character with some modern touches; as good as the photos and perhaps even better. This is really five star accommodation at amazingly good value. Spacious and beautiful! No one could possibly be disappointed by staying at this beautiful place. Little extras were much appreciated such as cereal, fruit juice, some biscuits, cold water, and even a birra! The location is also excellent, close to the main area, good restaurants, cafes, shops, etc. It was very hot while we were in Lecce, so the fan supplied was very useful.
