We loved staying in Otranto and Giuseppe's flat was a great place for us to stay.
Giuseppe was a great host! - he came to meet us as quickly as he could when we arrived earlier than expected, showed us around and told us to call him at any time if we had any problems. Fortunately we didn't need to do this, but when we were in touch beforehand he answered us within minutes.
The flat is exactly as it appears in the photographs. The building is not on the seafront so the views are not completely unobstructed, but nevertheless, there are great views out to sea and across to the marina and old town - especially from the balcony, which gets full sun in the morning (we weren't there for the rest of the day).
It's a quiet area so we slept well, but it was also only a few minutes walk to the nearest restaurants, and not much further to the promenade and then the old town - which is full of things to see as well as great restaurants and bars. The cathedral is amazing, with its famous mosaic floor - but the crypt is also beautiful if you can get in, and we enjoyed walking around the castle and being guided through the underground tunnels.
We would definitely recommend Otranto and Giuseppe's flat - and Giuseppe as a host.
