This is THE BEST place to stay in all of Taranto!! Firstly, location is amazing. Turn left and in a couple of minutes you'll find the main shopping area/high street, or turn right and in a couple of minutes you are by the sea and the gorgeous Lungomare! There's plenty of coffee shops, and a choice of several supermarkets (my recommendation is Lidl for price and selection!) all within walking distance, and the old town is less than a kilometre away to explore the castle and museums on offer! As for the apartment itself, it's beautiful! Really spacious, brand new kitchen/bathroom, and you can enjoy a coffee on the balcony whilst people watching and see the sea down the road. The sun can be enjoyed all day until lunch time, and then you have the option of opening up the back windows in the afternoon to enjoy plenty of natural light all day! It has everything you need for comfort, and the WiFi is brilliant (I work online with a need for fast connection speeds and it never let me down!). Lastly the host, Fabio, was truly fantastic. I've stayed in many airbnbs but he was incredibly thoughtful and attentive; always keeping the perfect balance between checking in that everything is ok, but keeping distance to allow you your space! It's an art form that he has mastered! He was really helpful with recommendations and making sure I was settled, and his communication was superb and very quick. I genuinely can't praise this stay enough, and would give it more stars if I could because it completely exceeded in everything and I would definitely stay again! Thank you for letting me stay in this beautiful apartment, hope to be back soon!
