There are so many great things to say about our stay at this apartment... First off the hosts are beyond welcoming and helpful. Upon our arrival, they had provided us with wine, water and other beverages, as well as cookies. They even gave us these lovely crochet souvenirs to bring home. These folks are beyond thoughtful! The place was spotless, comfortable and everything worked perfectly. As for the location, it is just a couple blocks from the town where all the restaurants and shops are. So it is very convenient. Honestly, we felt right at home. The only reason why I rated the description a 4 is because it was not clear to me that the parking spot is not on the premises. You have to walk a bit to get to, which isn't bad, unless you have mobility issues. And if you do have mobility issues, keep in mind that you will have to walk up a flight of stairs. Also, there is absolutely no view of anything. Just walls of other buildings. We were traveling around most of the time, so it wasn't a big deal. But since the description said it was "seaside" I assumed there would be some sort of view. With all that said, this is still a great place to stay and we would do so again, if we are ever in Polignano a Mare. All-in-all, I highly recommend this property.
