Bari is a city with two very distinct parts. Fabio's apartment is in the historic part of the city which is a maze of winding little streets and alley ways. This makes it a little confusing when you first arrive and try to find the apartment. However the apartment is very well placed for exploring this extraordinary environment. The area is lovely to walk around with plenty of good places to eat and drink. The apartment has a kitchen area on the ground floor and then three bedrooms, one on each of the next 3 floors - all linked by a narrow spiral staircase. It is probably not a good choice if you have mobility issues or find it difficult going up and down stairs but is has been designed to make good use of the available space. We spent only one night here before moving on to explore other parts of Puglia and Basilicata but we can recommend both the apartment and the city of Bari.
