Horrible
Nothing
HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE — DO NOT BOOK THIS PLACE
This was a horrible stay from beginning to end. I strongly recommend avoiding this accommodation if you want to enjoy your holiday rather than deal with constant problems.
The apartment was extremely difficult to find. The building has several different entrances, and there was absolutely no sign or name on the door indicating the apartment. The host did not provide any clear information before our arrival.
There was a horrible smell inside the apartment. The windows could not be opened because of construction works, and the constant noise from the renovation made the stay extremely unpleasant.
The condition of the apartment is simply unacceptable. The furniture is extremely worn out and the entire place is desperately in need of renovation.
There were ants inside the apartment. The dishes were in a critical, disgusting condition and clearly need to be replaced. The floors were dirty, with hair lying around, which is absolutely unacceptable for accommodation that is supposed to be cleaned for new guests.
The shower drain worked very poorly. The water was not draining properly and was overflowing onto the bathroom floor. The shower was very small, which made bathing a child very difficult. I definitely wouldn’t recommend this place for families with children.
The bed was constantly creaking, making it difficult to sleep comfortably.
And perhaps the biggest problem was the host. Communication with the host was horrible. It was extremely difficult to communicate, and when problems were reported, nothing was properly resolved.
Overall, this accommodation was a complete disappointment and one of the worst stays we have experienced. The condition, cleanliness, smell, noise, parking situation and lack of help from the host made the stay extremely unpleasant.
If you are planning a holiday, think twice before booking this place. It is absolutely not worth risking your vacation.

A convenient location, but a very unpleasant experience due to the strong damp and mould smell, uncomfortable sleeping a
The location was the only significant positive aspect of our stay, as it was convenient for visiting Otranto.
Most importantly, there was an extremely strong smell of mould, dampness and stale air throughout the apartment. We kept the windows wide open, but the smell did not go away. After staying for two nights, even the clothes inside our suitcases had absorbed the smell.
The accommodation was also not really suitable for four people, as two of us had to sleep on a very uncomfortable sofa bed. The bathroom was extremely small, and the apartment was on the third floor with no elevator and no balcony.
The advertised parking was in a shared public area, so there was usually no parking space available. The check-in was also poorly handled: although we arrived at the agreed time, we were only informed afterwards that it would be self check-in. We initially had difficulty finding the entrance and contacting the property, and eventually received the necessary instructions about 30 minutes later.
There were also ants in the kitchen. We had left some properly wrapped pastries we had bought from a pastry shop on a tray on the kitchen counter, and it quickly became full of ants. When we informed the owner, his response was: “Did you leave food on the kitchen counter? Don’t leave anything there.” This was particularly disappointing, as the pastries were properly wrapped and we would reasonably expect the kitchen to be free of ants.
Overall, this was a very disappointing experience, and we would not recommend this accommodation.

Mixed bag, overall nice with some UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCES; OVERPRICED! Owners clearly new to hosting
Location is excellent, although 10-12 mins walk to the beach and city centre. The owner provided a parking card that would allow us to park all over Otranto in the blue zone; this was nice however please read the situation in what we did not like section as well to be sure of any unpleasant happenings.
1. We lived all around the Puglia region and for a 1 BR apartment, with a sofa bed occupying most of living room - the apartment is significantly overpriced; even better locations than Otranto in the city centre did not have this kind of prices.
2. This was really bad and stressful for us a family - as soon as we entered there was gas smell in the apartment, we thought it would go away but when we came back in the evening, the smell gradually kept increasing not allowing us to sleep peacefully; the house is full of cheap Chinese gadgets from Temu like the gas detector, so we were not able to trust / rely on these filmsy detectors either; we kept chatting with owner's facilitator; he was kind and helpful, guided us to shut the gas valve in the end; over a period of few hours middle of the night the smell gradually reduced, but families on vacation must not go through this kind of stress; for that kind of price the owners need to pay more attention to maintenance of their apartment.
3. The free parking card, we were told we are good to park all over Otranto in blue zone; nice one - thank you very much; again only to encounter an unpleasant situation, we parked in city centre in blue zone, perfectly and accurately as per rules; video recorded even. Yet we get a stinky ticket. The owner's facilitator had no explanation and they decided to pay for it in the end, so I am not complaining here; just feedback for awareness, this shows the owners are not really aware of the area and what they should or should not offer - last thing visitors want is unpleasant experiences like gas smells and police tickets.
4. If you want to keep that price, put some basics like salt, pepper, some more basic utensils in kitchen

Dicht bij de oude stad, gratis parkeergelegenheid
Het appartement ligt op een paar minuten lopen van het oude centrum. Je hebt bij het appartement gratis parkeergelegenheid. Appartement voldoet aan de omschrijving, het is wel sober ingericht. Badkamer en de douche cabine zijn niet groot. Voor 2 personen prima, maar met z'n vieren zou ik het veel te krap vinden. Wasmachine is fijn! Contact met verhuur organisatie verliep prima, ze reageren snel. Info krijg je op de dag van aankomst gestuurd.
Het is mij uit de omschrijving op Booking niet duidelijk geworden dat ik het appartement zonder balkon heb geboekt. Ook in de bevestiging stond nog steeds balkon/tuinmeubilair aanwezig. Het blijkt zo te zijn dat het oorspronkelijke appartement in 2 appartementen is gedeeld. Dus achter de voordeur heb je nog 2 voordeuren. De een heeft een balkon (blu), de ander (rossa) niet. Er is dus niets misgegaan, maar het was voor mij onduidelijk.

Appartamento ben curato , piccolo ma bello . Accogliente ma soprattutto vicinissimo al centro. Ottimo rapporto qualità prezzo. Sicuramente ci ritorno.
Unica pecca , ma non indispensabile per una vacanza al mare , non ha un balcone ….

Ottima posizione per muoversi a piedi senza dover andare in giro con la macchina. Possibilità di parcheggio interno. Appartamento abbastanza spazioso e provvisto di tutti i comfort.
Host gentilissimo che ha provveduto a tutte le richieste che ho fatto.
Unico aspetto da migliorare: soffione nella doccia facilmente sostituibile con un braccio doccia o un saliscendi, ma solo perchè viaggiavo con le mie figlie che sono piccole ed è stato un po' scomodo lavarle.

Sicuramente la posizione, a due passi dal centro e la pulizia.
Ritengo sia troppo piccolo per 4 persone, potrebbe essere sufficiente per una notte ma non oltre...in cucina il divano letto occupa tutto lo spazio e le borse rimangono sul pavimento o sulle sedie...
