Grazie mille ##### Devika Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Natalia 24 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Great stay, but be aware of the "free parking" We stayed at this B&B, which is very well located in the historic center — perfect for exploring on foot. The room was comfortable, clean, and quiet, and breakfast was delicious with fresh local products. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The only downside is the "free parking" claim. You can’t actually drive into the historic center unless you're a resident, so there’s a risk of fines. Free parking is available, but it’s street parking about 4 blocks away — not on-site as the listing might suggest. Other than that, it was a great experience and we’d definitely stay again. ##### Natalia Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Chaim 19 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities A unique experience be in a high ceilinged room in a palazzo in Lecce with exceptional hosts.

Good location in the center of the old town of Lecce, close to all the things we wanted to see, restaurants and bars. We had a large terrace with the room which was wonderful. Note that the suggested free parking spot recommended was approx. 10 minute walk from the B&B. ##### Herman Hovde Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andrew 11 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Feeling like a queen and king It was a most amazing experience. A real palace, with the real owner of it, elegant, with a lot of history, huge, in the middle of the Old City. Breakfast was served in the apartment itself, all delicious and fresh. Francesca and Jose were extraordinary! In particular, on the last day, he drove us and the luggage out of the old city to be able to reach our car. ##### Andrew Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 12 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Excellent communication by host, Francesca.
