Casa e Bottega

Beautiful accommodation in a perfect location in a quiet street in the old part of town close to the sea. Very kind and helpful owner. Really amazing place, just be careful, quite a few stairs to the bedroom 😁

Choosing this apartment was the best decision :D The location is great, in the heart of the old city. Porto Viecha is just around the corner. The room was cosy, shared kitchen was well equipped. Also tasty breakfast (coffee + cornetto) in the local cafeteria was included in the price. I highly recommend this place for the stay in Monopoli. Thank you Chiara! 🤍

Great experience, great facilities!

The location was good, the room was a good size and clean with modern furniture.

Very disappointing that there were no expected items available such as bottled water for guests arrival, no refrigerator, no tea or coffee equipment and not even a cup or glass for drinking. The bathroom was clean, but the tiny shower was almost unusable due to the tap operation restricted by the shower screen. If you are a large person don’t expect to use the shower.

lovely location, breakfast voucher system worked well. Excellent cleaner always left the room feeling welcoming!

Bathroom TINY. I only just fitted into the micro - shower cubicle. (size UK16). potential visitors should be warned. I would have liked to have been able to boil some water for a drink indoors, but understand why not. No rail up the very steep and narrow stone stairs to terrace at top pf the building - didn't feel safe.

Location

Emailed host day before saying we would arrive at 12 noon, happy to just drop bags, they responded that was fine. Arrived at noon, nobody there. Contacted via WhatsApp and after several back and forth messages finally got understandable directions to get in. Directions should have been provided earlier, like most places do. Narrow, steep stairs, would be difficult for some, especially with large suitcases. Nice room, typical small bathroom. Lots of places have small showers, this one was tiny, no shelf for soap, etc (which is not uncommon). If you are a large person…..good luck. Had to message host to find towels, located in drawer under bed. Minimal toiletries, a few packets of shampoo/body wash. Terrace is a bit of a joke, no view, good for drying laundry I suppose. The AC did not work, bounced back and forth from 26 to 27 degrees, settled on 27 (80.6 F). Contacted owner, who came out but was unable to remedy the situation and minimized the problem. This made for a very uncomfortable night in a building on a narrow street and no air flow. Some rentals set internal controls so the split air unit will not cool below a certain point. Breakfast in nearby cafe, 3 min walk, coffee and pastry. We found another B&B for our last two nights. Owner offered to reimburse half of the total which had been paid. I did not argue as we were just disgusted at this point. At minimum should have returned two nights worth. The poor communication and advertised AC that did not work were deal breakers.

Simple clean bedroom bathroom.

Steep steps, lack of a view. Terrace was not as smart as the photos.

Amazing location in old town, beautiful rooms with a lovely terrace
