Great, secure location within easy walking distance to the old centre. Convenient & easy street parking right outside the apartment building. Delightful & attentive staff. Great value for money in Lecce. Terrific & generous breakfast selection. We are anti-plastic so an issue for us was all the plastic used on the breakfast tray. This was immediately remedied with porcelain cups & plates & metal cutlery.

Pulizia ed accoglienza di buon livello.

Il B&B è ubicato in una zona poco distante dal centro storico, (raggiungibile in 10 minuti a piedi), con possibilità di parcheggiare facilmente in area libera. Apprezzabile l’accoglienza offerta dai proprietari, che garantisce un buon livello di pulizia, nonché Una colazione soddisfacente, da consumare in camera, con possibilità di scelta in base al gusto degli ospiti.
