Mr.Gianluca and his family are very hospital! After flight we had very warm welcome! Thank you for tasty focaccia, it was a nice surprise for us. The location of the apartment is great! Right in the Old City, 1 minute from main shopping street, 2 min from the Basilica San Nicola, 10 min from central station by walk. The apartment is like an old castle. A lot of space! This is the biggest apartment I've had. Near is the bus stop Nr.42 to get to the Pane e Pomodoro beach. A lot of restaurants are near the apartment. If you would like to taste fresh sea food like octopus or sea urchin there is sea market in the early morning (6:00am) 5 min walk.
The Old City is very different during the day.
Early in the morning You can buy fresh baked bread (panini) in small bakery, from 7:00-8:00 starts to open small shops with fresh fruits and vegetables. From 8:00-8:30 starts to open La Salumeria, shops with tasty cheese and salami. In the afternoon streets are empty, fiesta, because of hot. Be ready that shops will be closed from 13:00 till 17:00. Only cafeterias and gelaterias are opened. But in the evening the hole city is on the streets. The restaurants, bars are full.
My advice is to taste local street food panzerotti, very, very tasty. One of the best place to taste it is Venezia 40 in the Old City. It is popular place so be ready to wait 20min, but it's worth it.
