Mimma was so kind, she picked us up at the railwaystation to bring us to the appartment. And when we left, her brother took us back to the station with his car. Nice and helpfull people! It's a great place to stay, if you don't mind walking the stairs. It's a pity that the roof terrace is a bit difficult to reach, but I think Mimma is planning to change something about that. And she informed us in advance about the stairs, so that is a good thing. The appartment itself is very spacious and nice, the livingroom is cosy and the kitchen has everything you need (except for baking dishes to use in the oven...That is a pity, because I wanted to make lasagna but I could not). The appartement is really good situated, right in the centre of the old town (centro storico) of Monopoli. Quiet at night. It's so nice to walk around, eveything is nearby, the bakery, little supermarket, fruits and vegetables. And very nice cafes and restaurants (with free Wifi!), especially on the Piazza Garibaldi. Even in the beginning of October there was a nice liveliness on the streets going on. We recommmend the appartment and we also recommend Monopoli. We advise to rent bycicles, that makes it easy getting around.
