Belle Epoque HOWME

The location was great and easy communication with the host!

The bed was a bit uncomfortable, one side slopes down. Felt a bit worn out. Floor could be a bit cleaner but overall definitely ok!

very spacious, good location (a grand store with fresh fruit and vegetables right downstairs), very responsive host

it feels like the apartment wasn’t finished. it lacked essential things, such as: coat hangers by the entrance, hangers and shelves in the bathroom to put your stuff, curtains, good pillows and comfy mattress. at least for my liking, pillows and the bed were quite lumpy and thus - uncomfortable to sleep in. bed sheets were quite used, although clean. the couch has a couple of good stains, and the apartment wasn’t as clean as we had thought since we found a lot of long hairs throughout our stay. the heating setting in the AC in the bedroom wasn’t working, and during our stay in Bari it was 0-2°C at night, so quite cold. however, when I texted the owner about the AC, a day later we got a small heater, which saved the night a bit. the owner did promise to repair the AC after us, so hopefully the next guests have a proper working AC. also, the dishwasher was broken, we had been informed before that, however, the apartment didn’t have any soap for dishes. we bought it and left it there for the next guests. so those little details do spoil a long term stay a bit. however I do recommend the place for short stays, and hopefully the owners will do finishing touches here and there. lastly, the wifi and TV are working. however, in the apartment there is a smart TV that only has Netflix, AmazonPrime, and YouTube (it might have sth else), no Italian TV though. if you do have Netflix, you are in luck as you may log in and use your Netflix.

The place was nicely decorated, very clean, had good facilities and the host was very communicative when sending the check in instructions.

Unfortunately the air-conditioned in the bedroom wasn't working properly. It was ony blowing cold air althought it was set up for 30 degrees and it was pretty cold outside already. The TV was not working. We could turn it on, but couldn't find any chanel whatsoever.

Everything was well organised about accommodation, very clean and cosy apartment.

Only the air conditioning in the bedroom was not working, but the blankets were warm enough.

Super clean, everything you might need is available. Great place and good located, just a few minutes walk away from the centre and train station.

The check out time is 10:00.

The customer care service, especially Vito was excellent, very helpful. Thanks!!

The apartment is great and spacious and has a really good location - about 15min to the old town and 10min to the central station by foot. Vito our host was very friendly and helpful too!

The bed is not very comfortable and the shower leaks, the only negative things we can think of.

1. Good location close both to city centre and bus/train station. 2. Stable wifi connection. 3. Balcony with possibility to take a breakfast for two persons.

1. Can’t tell that apartment was clean - there are a lot of stains on the sofa, floor with a lot of dust, we found few long black hairs on the bed and in shower. 2. There are no individual soap, shower gel or shampoo. We found in shower big bottles, which obviously already have been in use. 3. Shower cabin is a disaster - water leaking everywhere during the showering. So every time you need to clean the floor in the whole bathroom - really disappointing. 4. I’m sure owners can easily improve apartment quality by: a) fixing leaks in the shower cabin b) changing cleaning service c) put some glue to the bed - it was really squeaky one.
