Staying in a 16th-century palace in the historic city of Lecce was an unforgettable experience for us. From the very beginning, everything was perfect. Our hosts provided us with information on where to find free parking, and then they came to pick us up and take us to the apartment. My initial reaction when they opened the door was...oh my God! This is extraordinary! The place is stunning; every detail was tastefully curated. There were fresh flowers, local pastries, and they had provided a bottle of red, white, and rosé wines, as well as everything we needed for cooking. We absolutely loved this place; four nights gave us a wonderful introduction to Lecce, but we want to return, and if we do, we will certainly come back to Laura and Nino's apartment. They made our stay truly memorable, and the venue is simply breathtaking. Thank you!

Laura is a wonderful host. She and her husband Nino picked us up from the bus station . The appartment is beautiful and furnished thoughtfully to match the history of the building . Welcome touches such as pastries and wine made our experience very special . Lecce is well worth the visit . Lively and full of history.

“Fabulous apartment.”

Beautiful luxury apartment. Everything included. Wonderful hosts. Top location.

“Could not recommend enough”

The style was exceptional. A simply beautiful property full of history

“A beautiful, historical home-away-from-home.”

The location is excellent, in the historical centre and in walking distance to everything the beautiful city of Lecce has to offer. The restored ground-floor apartment, set in a 17th century palazzo, is superb. The hosts, who restored the historical apartment, are gracious and accommodating. Provision of breakfast items and a well-stocked kitchen are a bonus. The local supermarket is also in walking distance.

“A wonderful apartment. We would recommend a stay in this apartment to anyone.”

A most beautiful apartment in Lecce. Our hosts Laura and Nino were wonderful - friendly and informative. We would thoroughly recommend a stay in this apartment.

“Could not recommend enough”

“Living in a piece of history with modern facilities.”

Laura and her husband are amazing hosts, everything went very smoothly, the apartment is like a museum (in a good sense), location is perfect. Definitely recommend.

“The hosting and the presentation of the property were exceptional.we will definitelystay again”

Even better than it looks in the photos. Spacious and comfortable and historic. With every attention to detail. Beautiful

“A very special place to stay, at the heart of Lecce.”

This is a spectacular studio apartment in the very centre of Lecce. It is on the ground floor. It is part of an old Palazzo which has been lovingly restored and is immaculately presented. It is large and airy. Laura the host was very welcoming and helpful, for example finding us a parking space in an area nearby where parking is free. She helped us plan our stay and to plan excursions to Gallipoli and Otranto. We loved our stay here!

“Thank you for the memorable stay and your generous sweet pastries and bottles of lovely wine!!”

This was such a lovely apartment we are missing every bit of it now! The interior was tastefully decorated with furniture. Laura was exceptional host, not only was she prompt with her response, she took the effort to help us check for alternate when we were caught with an unfortunate train strike when we left .

“Beautiful unique apartment in”

Beautiful uniquely styled apartment in the heart of the old town - lovely decor and so spacious! Laura was the perfect host who went out of her way to accommodate an early check in, as well as providing breakfast and snacks for our stay!

“Hidden gem in the centre of Lecce vecchio.”

Everything about this little gem of an accommodation was exceptional - centrally located, immaculate and had everything we needed for our stay. The best part of our short trip were our hosts, Laura and Nino. Laura was amazing from the moment we connected by helping us find parking and her suggestions for where to visit in this beautiful region of Italy were spot on. We would have missed the best part of Lecce Vecchio if not for our passegiata with Laura and Nino who shared so much of their knowledge and history with us. They took us into amazing historical places we would have never known about. We look forward to returning as soon as we can.

Basseo 33 is the perfect holiday home. We will absolutely not only highly recommend the apartment but will return to it on our next visit to Lecce. The hosts, Laura & Nino, were gracious & went out of their way to ensure that our stay was the best it could be.

“Basseo33 A cut above all the rest.”

Laura and Nino were exceptional and the apartment was six star. Very centrally located. Lots to see and do close by. Happy to recommend to anyone. Will miss Basseo 33.

“Puglia Highlight!”

It was an absolute pleasure and privilege to stay in this beautifully appointed 17th century apartment! The owners have tastefully furnished the apartment, yet have ensured every comfort facility is there. Close to everything, a definite highlight in my trip to Puglia!
