We spent 4 days at Emilia's place during our honeymoon. It was the most incredible stay! Felice greeted us warmly and drove with us to park our car in a lot about 10 minutes walk away, for 5 Euro a day. He showed us the landmarks on the way to give us touring pointers.
It's a beautiful town, easy to walk around, great shopping, and the location of Emilia and Felice's place is incredible! The building is beautiful and after walking up 6 flights of stairs- 3 floors total, you reach an oasis overlooking Lecce. Lecce is a city we would highly recommend visiting if you have the chance, and staying in Emilia and Felice's air b n b is such a memorable treat. The garden is nothing short of a city oasis, the apartment is spacious, very clean and impressively modern. The bed was so comfortable. We were really able to settle in for a few days like it was our own home. We are from Canada and felt so comfortable at Emilia and Felice's place as well as within Lecce. Our stay at their place is a big part of why we had such a nice memorable time in Lecce.
A few notes- one shouldn't have reduced mobility to stay here because there is no elevator and the stairs are a bit of a workout, especially when considering arrival with luggage which has to be carried up to the apartment.
The apartment is located in a part of town where the university students like to gather at night which we found part of the charm of the location because it feels so local, but if you are looking for a recluse and quiet location especially at night, this can be a bit loud, of course especially during weekend evening and nights. That said, this place being rooftop located, is relatively quiet and removed from the street action.
We would highly recommend Emilia and Felice's place and hope to stay again!
