We had an excellent communication with Gaia before coming to Lecce and during our stay in her house. Unfortunately we never met her. We were welcomed by Laye. He was very helpful and kind and he explained us everything, in italian.
For 3 days we were pleased to have a whole, old and beautiful house for ourselves. It is situated in the historic center of Lecce, in a peaceful and authentic neighbourhood, in close proximity to piazza del Duomo and via Libertini. It has thick stone walls, arches on the ceilings and accordant decoration. We had in our disposal everything we could need for our stay. The highlight was of course the terrace. We were unlucky with the hot weather, so we only enjoined it after evening.
The ground and first floor were refreshingly cool, but the kitchen on the upper floor was very hot. The air condition in every room and the strong wi-fi signal were definitely a plus.
We strongly recommend Gaia's house, but not to elderly persons and families with small children, because of the stairs.
