This is a spacious apartment, exactly as described and the photos are accurate. It is located just outside the 'old town' (less than 5 mins walk), which is ideal if you are travelling by car as free parking is available on the surrounding streets. The apartment has a small balcony off the kitchen that catches the morning sun so was perfect to sit out on having a morning coffee or breakfast. There is a small supermarket/minimarket just up the street for provisions. The is also a fantastic pasticceria (cake shop) just around the corner on the main street. Be sure to check this out! Mariangela and her brother met us on the evening of our arrival and showed us around the apartment and answered all of our questions. Lecce is a stunningly beautiful city and the perfect base from which to explore southern Puglia. Remember though, as with any city break, that it's not the middle of the countryside, so expect it to be quite noisy from fairly early in the morning as the city gets up for work. Would I stay here again .... yes, absolutely!
