We stayed for 8 nights in Martino’s apartment. It was really clean, had everything we needed and was an accurate reflection of the website. We chose this location as it was close to all things we needed like markets, Centro storico, butchers, the town square and bus and train stops. We used Monopoli as a base for exploring Puglia and found it very easy to visit many towns and cities. Marko was a great host and communicated exceptionally well and offered local advice and directions. The apartment was great and spacious for the two of us and we felt it was perfect for the two of us. Apartment living gives to the chance to be like a local and we experienced many examples of contact with neighbours and the neighbourhood which was great. We will be sure to stay again if and when we return to Puglia. Recommended is the butcher across the road and Market Brigida also across the road....and the many many gelataria selling delicious ice creams!
