Beautiful, romantic and central

At 100 meters from Piazza Sant'Oronzo, from the castle of Carlo V and from all the rooms, a beautiful, spacious and bright apartment on the first floor of a historic building consisting of an equipped kitchen, a dining room, a living room, two bedrooms, a bathroom and two pretty little balconies. Star vaults in Lecce stone. Wood beams. Finely furnished, suitable for a couple, possibly with a child up to 1 year, who like to stay in the historic center and have everything within walking distance, without giving up their privacy. Not suitable for children.
The apartment is located in a small courtyard and has been recently renovated. We rent it at an absolutely promotional daily price considerably lower than the category average (it is a house and not a room!) because at the beginning of activity. We are very jealous of it! Inside you will find everything we thought you might need. Breakfast set, milk, coffee, tea and biscuits included. Also included is an exclusive welcome set for the bathroom and an excellent bottle of local Salento wine.
It is possible to access the court by car at the allowed times to unload luggage, but do not stop. The parking lots, for a fee, are 50 meters away. Free parking spaces can be found within 500 meters.
Very convenient for those arriving in Lecce by train.
A real bargain only for 2019, for attentive and respectful people, willing to reciprocate our courtesy.
We are waiting for you !!!

Terrific stay
We spent 4 nights at this property in the Centro Storica of Lecce to begin a month long visit to Italy. We can highly recommend it to anyone who wants a comfortable and convenient apartment and enjoys an authentic Italian experience. The apartment was clean, spacious and had everything we needed to do our own cooking. Luigi, the property manager could not have been more helpful in providing information on what to see and where to eat (which we did twice just 20 steps from the apartment at Mama Elvira’s). The rooftop terrace was also very nice for al fresco dining when we cooked ourselves. This deserves 5 stars across the board.

Beautiful, Spacious and Comfortable Apartment
This is a superb apartment with a private entry in the baroque city center of Lecce but away from the tourist traffic. It is near groceries, restaurants and shopping. There is a municipal parking lot very close by. The apartment is in a historic stone building; the thick walls and lofty ceiling (as well as air conditioning and a fan) keep it cool but there are plenty of wndows. The apartment has a rooftop terrace that is lovely in the evenings. The kitchen is well equipped and easy to use. The property manager was very attentive and welcoming.

Incredible location, home, and host
The photos accurately show how beautiful this home is, reflecting the architectural style in Lecce. The location was perfect, just a block or so from the Piazza Sant'Oronzo with its great bakery, gelateria, restaurants, and people, at the beginning of the main walking street in the centro storico. Kitchen is small but had all we needed for our 4-day stay. Rooftop terrace was lovely for an afternoon glass of wine. Everything in this large home was clean. We used both bedrooms - note that the upstairs bedroom has an open loft and the downstairs bedroom has a curtain for a door so for us, snoring echoed from one floor to the other. Host Luigi responded quickly to all my emails and WhatApp texts before and during the stay. He is over-the-top kind, thorough, and welcoming. We had the lucky opportunity to cross paths with him at the Rome train station and met briefly for coffee - he is warm and gracious. If I were to return to Lecce, I would stay here for certain. Highly recommended.

Great stay in the heart of historic Lecce
My husband and I stayed in Luigi’s place for 5 nights in April. It is large and comfortable, perfect for the two of us but would be great for 4 as well given the 2nd bedroom in the beautiful loft. Luigi was very responsive, and provided us with some welcome goodies and recommendations which were much appreciated. The location is superb, close to all the restaurants and sights, but nice and quiet at night. Grazie mille Luigi.

Perfect for independent travelers
We greatly enjoyed our extended stay in Lecce, and this elegant apartment close to the major piazza in the historic center was perfect for us. Each morning we could easily stroll into the piazza for coffee and pastry and enjoy the morning sunshine. The apartment is located in a cul de sac so it is very quiet and secure. The bathroom and kitchen are modern, and the bed and furnishings comfortable. There is ample room to spread out plans for activities. Luigi provided a welcoming basket of breakfast snacks and a bottle of wine for us. We like to be independent travelers, so the apartment was an excellent find for us, and I’m sure that others like us would enjoy a stay in this lovely apartment as well. If we return to the region someday, we would surely want to stay in the apartment again.

Great apartment, great location
The apartment is lovely, loads of character, very spacious, comfortable and well equipped. Fantastic location, very close to the main attractions and restaurants in Lecce's centro storico. Even though close to the centre it is on a quiet street so no noise problems. The owners are great, Luigi was easy to contact and his father and mother were very welcoming and helpful meeting us for check in and showing us where to park. A bottle of local wine and other supplies were left for us in the fridge and a voucher for morning coffee and pastry at a nearby cafe was a nice touch and much appreciated. Highly recommended, hopefully we'll make it back one day!

Beautiful, spacioius and central
My daughter and I stayed at this lovely apartment in September 2018 for 4 nights. Luigi and his parents were very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. Since automobile traffic is curtailed in the old city, Luigi's father met us, helped us take our bags to the house and then showed us where to park. The apartment itself is in a renovated old house with very comfortable beds, large dining room and living room, great shower (!) and AC. The old town comes alive at night and it was great to be in the middle of it. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Luigi ist ein sehr liebenswürdiger und zuverlässiger Vermieter, der alles dafür tut, dass es einen Gästen gut geht. Wir hatten fast täglich Kontakt und konnten uns mit allen Fragen an Luigi wenden. Zu unserer Überraschung war der Kühlschrank gefüllt. Es gab einen leckeren Begrüssungswein, Wasser, Milch, Espresso und jede Menge Dinge, mit denen man ein gutes italienisches Frühstuck machen konnte. Die Wohnung ist grosszügig und wunderschön eingerichtet. Es gibt auch eine riesige Dachterrasse. Bitte beachten Sie, dass es viele Stufen gibt, die den Charm des Hauses ausmachen.

Séjour au centre de Lecce
Luigi est un hôte sans pareil: attentif et convivial et généreux. Nous avons eu des problèmes de wifi, pendant plus d’une journée, dont il n’était pas responsable, il a communiqué à de nombreuses occasions avec le fournisseur et nous a amplement dédommagés. Une bouteille de vin de la région nous attendait à notre arrivée ainsi que plusieurs items de base: bouteille d’eau, lait, café, sucre et dépannage pour le petit déjeuner. L’appartement est grand, l’éclairage impeccable, le lit confortable, le tout à 2 minutes du centre. Étant un couple sénior avec certains problèmes de genoux l’accès a été difficile: c’est une maison d’époque parfaitement entretenue mais avec 20 marches pour accéder à l’étage et encore deux étages pour accéder à la terrasse. Nous n’avons donc pas profité de cet espace. L’eau chaude nous a aussi causé quelques soucis. Mais considérant la qualité de l’hébergement, la gentillesse du proprio et la proximité au centre, à conseiller. Nous étions en transports public, à 15 minutes de la station. C’était parfait, apt climatisé et bien insonorisé.
