There is nothing more one could want from a host on Airbnb. Mauro was kind, polite, helping and caring. The place was sparkling clean. The location itself is probably one of the best posible: right next to the Castelo Svevo, Arco Alto is one of the main entrances in Bari Veccia, the old town. Travelers get immediately immersed in the authentic spirit of Italy's most beautiful sights: cosy tight streets, ringing church bells, nice little restaurants, bakeries, groceries and souvenir shops. One neighbour is making homemade pasta in front of your doorstep. Another one stirs the street in front of her place thrice a day with powder detergent, so it could always smell awesome... Joy's home isn't just a place to spend the nights. It perfectly complements the best experience one could imagine when dreaming about Italy. There is an awesome panoramic sea sight terrace very close nearby. The location is also well-connected with the public beach, as well as with Bari Centrale, the main city transport hub to practically everywhere (the beach and the station are both 15 min away walking or 5 mins away with a bus). Higly recommended. There is no way you could ever regret it.
