this was a good choice for a one night stay. Although the room is quite small it is clean and well-located between the train station and the old town. both are within walking distance. Good communal coffee maker for a decent cup of coffee in the morning.

Well located. Close to train station and 10 minute walk to the heart of the Old Town. Lots of street parking around. The room will meet all your needs if you're looking for a place to sleep but isn't a luxury hotel. Staff was very, very nice and generously accommodated my need to check in/out outside of regular hours.

Very convenient location for travellers near the station but not far from the old town. Clean, spacious room.
The luggage storage - useful if catching an overnight ferry - costs extra and needs special arrangement

The owners charged us per person when they clearly state it’s for the room . We booked ,my husband and I,a room for the week and they charged us upon arrival double . Worse experience ever. I have travelled numerous times to europe and this place saw an opportunity to rip us off . Our friends were treated the same way . They also charged my credit card additional expense when we paid with my husband credit card. Buyer be ware !!!!

Convenient location within easy walking distance of train station and links to airport. Also able to continue up road directly to old historic part of town. Our room and en-suite were clean and spacious. Secure entrance system and lift. Very bright decor.
Office like feel to functional reception area. Breakfast is a do it yourself affair at “stations” on your floor with bought in prepacked items. Not convinced that these are date checked or topped up on a daily basis. Butter pats were rancid and out of date by one month!! Only one apple in our “fruit bowl”, two yoghurts, two cartons of juice and two tiny packets of crostini toast left at 08.00 at our breakfast spot despite there being 4 rooms on our floor. (At least 3 were occupied.)

Stressful Check in

Lovely rooms and pleasant staff. Renovations meant a late sleep in was not an option but meant a fuller day to explore the area. The only problem was with check in, there was no one there to give us access to our rooms, not a pleasnt experience after a long journey. This seems to be a real problem with unmanned front desks and needs to be sorted out, seriously!

Stop on way to Matera

We were not able to have a room in the main hotel because they had plumbing issues. We were in an apartment about 5 minutes away. So I can not comment on the rooms at the hotel but we had been recommend to stay at the hotel by family who have stayed in the past. The staff we saw were very helpful. The apartment was clean and suitable for our one night stay,

Comfortable hotel

My room was not quite as it was advertised on the website, but it was still comfortable and clean. The place was a little difficult to locate as it was a really small sign on the keypad of an office/apartment block. The lady who welcomed me could not speak English so we bumbled our way through the booking and payment process. The accommodation was really close to the bus and train station and easy walk to the main centre of Bari. There were no brochures or information on the local area though. The walkways outside the hotel were little busy with locals/homeless people which may put some off.

Eccentric plumbing, very nice host

This place has 2 things going for it: close to the train station, and the host is very kind and helpful. Otherwise, it's pretty underwhelming. Our shower didn't drain and the toilet gushed out so much water when we flushed that it splashed out onto the floor every time. This is probably more an issue with the building than the apartments that make up this B&B but nevertheless, it's an issue.

Tastefully decorated, smart B&B

Found B&B fairly easily; Alessandro was very helpful & welcoming; room decent size; tastefully decorated, modern, and clean; nice touch to have breakfast all provided ready for next morning in room with access to tea and coffee at any time. Area is a little noisy though blind helped to block some of it out — light sleepers may find their rest disturbed. Overall an excellent B&B in a really handy location.

I picked the B&B because it was close to the railway station since I was going to be flying into Bari fairly late in the day and then taking the train again the next afternoon. The B&B is actually a group of apartments in a building on Melo da Bari. The street was pretty drab and grungy, which made me a bit nervous during my short walk from the station. The room itself was not bad, but the breakfast was terrible. Breakfast consisted of some pre-packaged croissants/bread with a few packets of jam/nutella in a basket in the room. Tea bags and a few coffee \"pods\" were provided, but to use them you had to go out into the hall where a shared coffee & hot water machine was located. In addition, the only cups provided were two \"teeny\" styrofoam cups which were so small a single teabag nearly filled the cup leaving little room for any water.

Great location in Bari

We booked 4 nights in this bed and breakfast as part of a tour of southern Italy.
The owner, Alessandro, was very helpful and gave us an itinerary including places we hadn't heard of. The location was great - the underground car park at Gestipark was a five minute walk away.
The room was good - clean and fairly large.

Not what we expected

Out of all the places we stayed in southern Italy, this one cost the most. When we arrived, we were moved involuntarily to a suite (an extra 10 minutes walking from the train station, and we had difficulty finding the place when we returned in the evening. The bed was too small for an adult, and the other option was a sleeper sofa. In the morning, there was no hot water. I turned on the hair dryer after an ice cold shower, while my mom turned on the microwave. This cut the power - at this point we had no hot water, no electricity, and no internet. I was forced to walk 10 minutes to the original hotel, freezing outside with wet hair after my icy shower, to tell the manager what had happened. She sent her husband over, who was rude and pushy. Not once during the ordeal were we apologized to for our inconvenience. Alessandro, the son, was the one positive, as he had been very helpful and communicative throughout our stay (he went above and beyond).

The B&B is a part of apartment block. Room is big and clean. Breakfast is in the room (yogurts in fridge, water, juice, pastries, coffee machine). Check out is 10 am its very early. I wanted to ask to leave our bags after checking out but reception was closed. The owner is not there all the time, you have to call them. I found it inconvenient. Overall good place to stay, center location.

convenient to Bari Centrale Station

The location was very convenient, about 3-4 minute-walk from the station. The room we stayed was small but had a nice balcony that made us feel like really living in an Italian condominium. However, the owner is absent at the breakfast time and so that what we could get was minimum. And since we could not figure out how to use the coffee machine, we could not have any espresso or cappuccino in the morning. If you are staying here, make sure to ask the owner Alessandro how to operate the machine while he is around.

La habitación fue muy cómoda y acogedora, tenía un lindo balcón. Lo principal incluso de la elección fue la cercanía a la estaciones ferroviarias y de buses. Lugares muy seguros. Bari es una ciudad hermosa y variada. Cuenta con accesos a pueblos bellísimos por eso hice base allí.

Chambre et salle d’eau très grandes, parfaitement propres, en bon état, bien meublées, avec rangements et tables. Personnel accueillant et bienveillant, m’ont offert un paquet de pâtes en cadeau à mon départ. Les volets occultent totalement la lumière, ce qui est rare en hôtel ou bnb. Pas très moderne mais ce n’est pas ce qu’on recherche pour le prix. Le lit et les oreillers sont confortables j’ai très bien dormi. Pensez à prendre des bouchons d’oreilles car les portes vitrées se ferment mal et la rue est bruyante, mais je n’ai plus rien entendu avec les bouchons.

170€ pour une auberge de jeunesse

A notre arrivée, nous apprenons qu’il y a eu une erreur hôtels.com un seul convive a été réservé.
Pas de problème la chambre réservée été double.
Nous devons donc payer un supplément pour l’occupation double.
Prix payé lors de la réservation 109€ la nuit. “L’hôtelier nous demande 60€ Pour la personne supplémentaire
Donc la nuit a 170€
Voici alors mon commentaire sur la base de se tarif :
B&b dans un building sans charme très dépouillé! Défraîchi!
On monte au deuxième à pied car ascenseur hors service
On nous accueil dans un couloir. Une table. Le couloir fait office de bagagerie ! On appel hôtel.com
Pour essayer de régler notre problème de réservation
B&B on regarde une petite table avec des gâteaux de supermarché emballés une machine à café et des jus de fruits en boîte , voilà le petit déjeuner! Pour un hôtel à 170€ la nuit c’est désobligeant!
La chambre sans charme basic mais propre. On nous monte une bouteille de vin offerte. Pour faire passer la pilule ça ira mieux.
Salle de bain très sommaire. Pareil pour 170€ on s’attend à mieux.
En faite pour le tarifs c’est du vol.
Digne d’une auberge de jeunesse pas plus

Ideal gelegen, aufmerksamer Service, perfekt!

Wir wurden im B&B Melo sehr freundlich empfangen und nach den üblichen Formalitäten wurden wir gefragt, was uns nach Bari geführt habe. Als wir die Themen \"Essen\" und \"Geschichte\" nannten wurde sofort eine Karte gezückt und diverse hochinteressante Tagesausflüge (welche einen echten Geschichtsfreak begeisterten!) sowie großartige Lokale empfohlen und eingezeichnet. Alle unsere Fragen wurde geduldig und freundlich beantwortet. Wir waren (und sind) einfach begeistert. Einen solchen Empfang erhält man selten. Das B&B Melo ist außerdem noch wenige Gehminuten von der Altstadt Baris gelegen und mitten im Stadtteil Murat mit seiner wunderschönen Architektur. Eine Parkgarage mit einem Spezialpreis für Gäste des B&B ist in unmittelbarer Nähe, was einem die furchtbare Parkplatzsuche in Bari erspart. Eines der besten Cafés Baris, Caffè Mozart (nicht Mozart Café!), ist ebenfalls nur wenige 100 Meter entfernt.

Unser Zimmer war sauber, die Betten bequem, die Dusche warm, das Zimmer hatte einen kleinen Kühlschrank.

Wir würden/werden definitiv wieder im B&B Melo übernachten bei unserer nächsten Barireise.
