Claudio’s place was amazing. Just like the photos! There really are a lot of stairs - 10 to get into the house and another 22 to the first bedroom. The second bedroom is further up. So if that’s a concern for you I can’t recommend that you come. Otherwise, it’s so lovely. Beautifully decorated and just peaceful to be in. There was a coffee bar a few steps away. The duomo and a ton of great restaurants were just a few hundred meters away. And there’s a grocery store in walking distance. It was a perfect spot as a base to explore Matera, Alberobello, and Alta Mira.
