Aldo's place was perfect for our group of six - one couple, two friends and two kids. The apartment is large, clean and very comfortable. We had everything we needed (dishwasher, coffeemaker) and more (laundry facilities, tv).
There are good provisions near the apartment (bakery, cheese shop, grocery store), and a couple of restaurants that looked good. We prepared dinner in both nights, and had everything we needed to make and enjoy a nice meal.
Aldo's apartment is a great base to explore this fascinating region. The apartment is very close to the old section of Gravina, which is charming, friendly and not touristy at all. We explored the winding streets, museums and churches, walked across the aqueduct and enjoyed a beautiful view of the town. The next morning, it was a short and easy half- hour drive to the main attraction - the old town of Matera.
Between the clean and comfortable apartment, location in a charming city and proximity to Matera, we really enjoyed our stay. Highly recommended.
