We had a great time discovering Monopoli and part of Puglia, staying in Anna's place for ten days. The location of the appartment in a small "vico" inside the ancient walls of the old town, just a few steps from the town's beach (ok, crowded at times but then you just chose yours and enjoy the bath in the evening returning from your day visiting the neighborhood) is just great. We felt really living among Monopoli's inhabitants in the little courtyard, everything at hand, a step from the night's "passagiata" and yet quiet. The appartment, simply furnished but well equipped was remarkably fresh too (even without using the air cooler), which was good considering some d'ays heat outside. Anna was really very kind and helpful too (and we managed to communicate easily with our mix of Italian and English) : taking care and news during our stay : spontaneously giving excursion advice and info by mail from time to time, making sure everything was alright ! Thanks again Anna !
