Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
You'll find this ground-floor apartment in the historic heart of Lecce. All the must-haves and must-sees are within strolling distance here – Piazza Mazzini is five minutes away, Castello Carlo is walkable in ten, and countless bars, restaurants, and shops are nearby. Though the apartment lacks a living area, it's a good option for those keen to spend all their time exploring.

Home truths
This apartment doesn't have a living area. With that in mind, we think it's best for guests planning to spend most of their time exploring the local area.
The single bedroom is accessed via one of the double bedrooms.
If you're travelling with little ones, your host may be able to provide a cot upon request.
This apartment is set on the ground floor. It has a front window that faces the street, so it's not the most private. It also lacks natural light, especially in the kitchen.
We think the kitchen could do with a few more utensils and cooking essentials.
There isn't a washing machine or dryer here, but there are launderettes in the local area.
