John came to pick us up at Porta Napoli, which is one of the gates to the historic center. The historic center is a maze of narrow one-way streets, and it's recommended to have guidance. The car GPS gets confused! Eventually, we got familiar and were able to drive in and out the next days.

John is a charming host. He showed us the place which is really cozy and welcoming. There's artwork and murales painted by him (make sure to drop by his studio next to the front gate). The garden corner, with the glass door is perfect to read and relax (mind the mosquito at night!). Actually every corner of the apartment is unique and lovely. The directions and advice for food were spot on. In the morning we got an abundant and yummy breakfast, which was adapted to our requests.

The historic center of Lecce is a fabulous place, if you love architecture and history. The position of John's apartment is perfect to visit the area on foot. We could walk around for our daily visits and to the restaurants.

Grazie di tutto John, siamo stati proprio bene e speriamo di tornare!
