This is an amazing apartment in the incredible historical area of Lecce, just few minutes walk from all the historical sights and the main pedestrian area (which has plenty of restaurant & bar options). There is also a small supermarket a short stroll away for self catering. The apartment is located in a quiet area and has everything you need- including a great roof top terrace with views, fully equipped kitchen (although no toaster which would have been good) and access to the washing machine on the roof. Although there were only two of us, we booked and paid to rent the entire apartment (which meant to use both bedrooms and the two bathrooms we paid for three people). As a result we had more than sufficient space.
The apartment is light and airy and the pictures don’t really do the property justice- It’s a beautiful space. The very narrow staircase on entry to the apartment may be an issue if you have heavy bags, but it’s manageable. Additionally the stairs up to the second bedroom on level 2 and also up to the roof terrace are quite steep, but were fine for us. The apartment is very secure and as the historical area is well lit and under camera surveillance, it’s quite safe walking even at night.
Street Parking is available 2mins walk away in Via Manifattura Tabacchi at €0.60 for 30mins (parking fees only apply between 9-2 and again between 4-9pm).
Massimo was a great host and easy to contact- we had many communications prior to our arrival (mostly questions from me which he answered promptly and helpfully). Thanks Massimo- we would definitely stay again!
