A little difficult to communicate with the host in English. Even though there was a fridge, there were no glasses we could use to have a drink on the balcony (except for one in the bathroom!) Also, maybe a little table on the balcony would be nice.

The location was great. The balcony was nice. Not too far from where we could park. The host Luigi was very helpful and showed us where to park.

Excellent location right at entrance to historic center. It was clean and comfortable. They provide free parking at a location nearby but just keep in mind it is a bit of a walk.

The location was amazing in the hospitality. They went over and about helping us with some lost luggage. Very happy with their service.

Nothing really, everything is catered for adequately with the parking a few hundred meters away but you can off load a few meters from the apartment..

Excellent location beside the main promenade piazza beside the gate to the old town, Breakfast a few doors away in the Garden Cafe. The apartment is on the first floor has a nice traditional/modern decor with private bathroom, kitchen and air conditioned bedroom. A small balcony to the rear with a limited view but with the local bell tower and one of the castle towers. Free parking a distance away. The proprietor introduces and explains everything when you arrive.

It's a homely place rather than stylish but it has everything you need for a great holiday in Otranto.

Luigi was a lovely host & greeted me with care.

This was the perfect spot to stay in Ostuni! Our host was wonderful, providing great detail and hints for places to eat. We enjoyed it very much. And would stay again.

Finding it is tricky. No signage.

I LOVED the location of this room, especially the view.

Nothing about the accommodation. Just initially, getting from the train station to Balcone su Otranto was a bit of a trek because there were no taxis or buses that we could find and so we resorted to Google maps and a 15-minute walk. But, Luigi, the owner, more than made up for this set back by kindly driving us back to the station at the end of our trip, which was very kind of him.

The owner Luigi, a lovely gentleman who surprised us with his ability to communicate via google Translate. Brilliant. We booked this as a B&B stay but were very happy to discover a full kitchen and a great private sun patio with an outdoor dining space. The room was very comfortable with insect screens on the windows as well as aircon if you needed it. The breakfast was facilitated by the cafe bar a few metres away on the ground floor. Usually, coffee and a croissant or savoury pastry. The location was superb. A minute or so from the safe beach with clear water and sand. Close to shops, restaurants, and cafes. In the other direction, about 50m from the old walled town with many more shops, ice cream parlours, and restaurants. In the residential area behind, there was a small supermarket for groceries. Otranto is a great holiday destination, and this accommodation is in the best place..

Nothing

Luigi, the person in charge, is a very helpful and sympathetic person. The room is simple, but got everything you need, a beautiful view to the sea and the park, at a few steps to the "lungomare", restaurants, cafés and shops. We spent 4 nights and had a great time I hardly recommend Balcone su Otranto.

No criticism

The location of the property is by the beach and one minute walk from historical center. The property has got fully equipped kitchen and little terrace with old town view and also rooftop with the stoning view over the sea . There is cleaning service on a daily basis so the place is super clean, comfortable and superb location.

The host Luigi was very friendly and helpful. I travelled with my 15 year old son and the host invited me to call him if I needed anything during my stay. The room was spacious with a sea view. The lodging is close to the historic centre and bars/ shops and also the sea making it a perfect location. I would recommend this accommodation highly.

Beautiful appartment, close to the city center and to the beach, breakfasts at the very nice bar. Very kind and hospitable owners.

The balcony is a tiny one, you cannot sit, just stand. We found the owner bit annoying. Arrived there tired after driving many hours and he kept explaining for half an hour how to use a simple key to open the doors and how to open the windows.

The location was great, very central and close to everything. The room was clean and spacious.
