  : The room i originally booked was available but we were also shown an option (same price) for a room that had an enclosed private terrace. We chose to go with the terrace room and it was wonderful. We were able to sit in a fully enclosed area with a bottle or 2 of wine and just relax. Breakfast was brought to our door both mornings. Also, when we had an issue finding parking one of the locals had us follow him and he brought us right to a free parking area. It was much appreciated
  : The accomodations were perfect however the area is a little quiet between 2 - 6 and options for dining out were limited and not avail until 8 pm but that is the Italian way which as Canadians we were not used to

  : Beautiful accommodation in a historic building. The best accommodation we had in our entire Italy trip. Lucia and her team were very friendly and helpful. Everyday they came to clean the appartment and change the towels. Plus, every morning we received Italian pastries for breakfast. Lucia even changed the breakfast on request because it was to sweet for us. She also organized a travel bed and chair for our little baby.The flat is located next to a lively church which is at the heart of the town.San Cesario is a nice authentic little town with a train station that brings you to Lecce several times a day.
  : The flat is beatiful including the kitchen. But the kitchen equipment could be more comprehensive. E.g. we were missing tea towels and a cutting board. Additionally, the olive oil was nearly finished and there was no vinegar. The flat is not very soundproof. We could hear the neighbour snore (and they certainly our baby cry) and the nearby church bells ring. But this did not disturb us very much.

  : - very clean- neat, well thought decoration and refurbishment - spacy and pleasant- calm environment, peaceful and safe place with several free parkings close by- flexible host as well as the cafe where breakfast is offered (even though more clear and transparent information should be shared beforehand so there is no confusion)
  : - beware: VERY narrow window for check in; it is not a practice for accommodations to offer a 2 hour window (12-14) for check in, so if you believe its done as per usual and you arive at 17. - youre in trouble ;) read the description in detail, as we didnt see it and since we havent received a confirmatory message from the host (as the usual practice is), we were late (but with a small bump in the road, it turned out well in the end)- another thing we were not informed about is that you need to make special requests for your breakfast as it is NOT offered at the premises, youre rather sent out to a cafe (that serves only italian pastries - no continental, american or vegetarian options as the description states:) unless you specifically ask for those) or they bring what youd like to your room. since we didnt want to make any special requests and felt like well do great with the array of whatever is offered within the scope of continental & co. we were rather surprised when we realized what breakfast meant at this property - cant enjoy the garden during the summer with ac running inside as it is too loud and it blows hot air directly towards the chairs (ac outer unit not visible on pics here)
