    Excellent location, very close to the beaches and good restaurants. Very clean place, my room was cleaned daily. The host was super nice and helpful. He provided a very good breakfast with homemade cakes by his wife. There was wi-fi and tv. Overall very good quality 🙂 You can take a direct bus to the city's beach.He has had a service for airport transfer which we have used. He also has helped us with some tips about how to reach the center.

    The host Gianni was absolutely charming and very helpful. He provided a very good breakfast with homemade cakes by his wife. He made suggestions for restaurants and advised taking a bus into central Bari from the bus stop just down the road. The B&B had a lovely sitting out area too.

    Hosts with big hearts - pleasant, clean BnB

    The bathroom in the single room is a little tricky if you are a tall person. The toilet is quite near the sink vanity - not much knee/leg room, but if you fly budget airlines...you'll be fine.

    Maria and Gianni run a very clean, modern, comfortable BnB with a lot of heart. They went above and beyond to make my stay pleasant. When my flight was delayed well past midnight, Gianni still provided the agreed shuttle service even though it was so very late (by then early) saving me from a very long taxi line. And when I wasn't feeling well one day, they made sure I had what I needed and was okay. Anytime I had a question on where to go, they had suggestions and I was even lent an umbrella for the beach. The rooms have tall ceilings, good A/C and pleasant lighting, modern fixtures and are very clean. The mattress was comfortable and I was able to sleep well, even in the heat wave. There are only four rooms so it feels very cozy and not too crowded or like a typical "tourist" experience. Smoking is not allowed in the BnB, which I also appreciated. Bathrooms are private, not shared. Another big plus. Location is also excellent: I have been in Bari a few times, but was delighted to explore this area near the lighthouse, good restaurants, several public (and private) beaches and it is very close to a bus stop with buses to the center and the main train station or old town Bari (Bari vecchia). Tickets can be bought online or at the tabbacheria nearby. It is also not far to the grocery store and nearby cinema. I didn't have or need a car, but with a car, it would be easy too. Breakfast was a delicious cornetto/other fruit and juice etc. and coffee made for you by the host. In a nice breakfast room. Bruce the dog is also a pleasant addition in greeting the guests and follows Gianni like a shadow. There is also a very large garden with a nice seating area outside. I had a very pleasant stay - and plan to come back next time I am in Bari.

    The bus stop is close but the buses are late always in Apulia. If you want to travel to nearby cities take into consideration that you have to wake up earlier. This is however not the host's fault but the cities'.

    Very clean place, my room was cleaned daily. The host was super nice and helpful. I got croissant and cappucino for breakfast every day and there were also other stuff to eat. My room had AC and window blinders which was very good because the sun did not wake me up in the morning. There was wi-fi and tv. Overall very good quality 🙂 You can take a direct bus to the city's beach.

    There is nothing to improve

    This was a great and contemporary B & B, with a beautiful courtyard. The room was very comfortable with a firm bed. The hosts were very welcoming and the breakfast was plentiful. We booked this area because we were taking a cruise and it was close to the Port of Bari. N.B. Bruce the dog was lovable and very well-behaved!

    A great location for visiting Bari - just a really easy bus ride in and out of town. Clean and decorated to a super high standard very tastefully done. Breakfast was great with a lovely fresh croissant every morning and a choice of other items. Lovely garden area to chill after a busy day exploring.

    It was a perfect stay by Maria and Gianni!!! I can fully recommend staying in their B&B. The apartment is always very clean and equipped with everything you need for a pleasant stay (towels, hairdryer, air conditioning, even a small mini fridge in the room). Breakfast is very good (homemade cakes made by Maria, yogurt, müsli; I personally had some prosciutto with cheese every morning. ) The whole week I felt like at home here. Gianni always asks what breakfast preferences you have and always gives helpful tips: where to eat, how to get to the beach or downtown, etc. Thank you Maria and Gianni!

    nothing to complain!All was great!

    I loved my stay at the guest house and I must add, the hosts are great, very friendly and helpful. Also the guest house is close to the beach, its very new, modern, very safe for me as a lady traveling alone, and very clean. Gianni picked me from the airport and I can recommend to arrange a service with him for sure. Maria made a wonderful cake for breakfast. , Everything was great and perfect, from transport, to breakfast, also talking to him was always a pleasure. Highly recommended accommodation, well connected by bus to the city centre, with beaches nearby too. Overall, excellent value for money!
