Guglielmo was fantastic and handled our early arrival in Lecce with aplomb. He arrived quickly to meet us and lead us to the free parking and to his lovely apartment. Once he'd recovered from carrying our 20kg bag up the stairs (a super host indeed) he spent time giving us lots of tips on what to see and where to eat in Lecce and beyond. He loves his city! A pretty, light apartment with all we needed to be comfortable right in beautiful Lecce's fascinating centre - including warm pastries for breakfast from a nearby cafe/bar and a little grocery for essentials.
Good shower and lots of storage space for clothes. Although central, being up high it was totally secure, quiet and with a great view of the Duomo's tower from the living room. And even the weather was kind to us. A great few days, but another time - and we'd come back - I'd pack two smaller bags rather than one big one because of those stairs!
