If you have to spend lock-down in an apartment which is not your own, this one is a good one to do in. It is a very large apartment in a stylish block, and while it might not be in pristine condition, it has a fantastic view over Otranto harbour and town and could easily accommodate 6 people for a long holiday.
It was well equipped with kitchen equipment so that we could spend our days baking and trying new dishes. It had 3 balconies so you could follow the sun around the building. All the rooms are big and have many wardrobes and chest of drawers. Unfortunately all the beds are single and are made into double by being pushed together with a double mattress put on top, but they were OK.
After 3 months we got to like the apartment a lot. When we were eventually allowed out, it was very handy for the local beach and the centre of town. It was easy to pop back to the apartment from the beach if you forgot something.
The host (Frederica, Marcella's daughter) was excellent, always on hand to answer questions. It was a difficult time for everyone but over the 3 months, she made everything as well as possible, given the lock-down laws.
We would happily go back again
