We loved our room with a pretty balcony. The entry instructions were clear and easy to follow. Breakfast is at a nearby cafe which is very friendly. We never met the owner but she was very kind and helpful on the phone with our requests. We would definitely stay here again.

Great place. Centrally located in Bari so that everything is a close walk. We were in room 2 that had a balcony overlooking the street. The bathroom was big and beautiful. The common area had a coffee maker, microwave and a fridge filled with things you can buy. There was a personal fridge in the room as well.

We stayed for one night. They were very accommodating in letting us leave our bags early. They provided us with keys to the building and our room so we could come and go as we pleased. The room was very comfortable. Only complaint was that the shelf above the sink was broken so it was difficult to use toiletries.

It’s clean and spacious room, quiet and walkable. You need to use the flash light when you need to get out from the elevator. Cynthia is very kind and responsive any text message/sms via WhatsApp. She is very helpful and knowledgeable of good restaurants 😋

Clean, spacious and friendly
Absolutely recommendable. The room was spacious and clean, the staff was welcoming and very helpful.
Excellent bed too.
The B&B is about 10 mins walk from the old city centre (depending of course on your walking speed). Grocery shop etc is aplenty within a couple of blocks. All in all it's an easy place to stay.
Two things worth noting.
One: Bring earplugs. The B&B is in the city, and the streets are noisy.
Two: There is a little handle embedded in the wall, which lets you roll down the blinds, in case you're liking it dark when you sleep.
