1. The actual location was NOT the one I booked. After arriving at the indicated address, the property manager came to take me to a completely different address (that is not nearby), claiming that the original location is now fully booked and that he will put me in a totally different b&b that he also manages. This is very sketchy.

2. It was absolutely not as advertised. There is no garden or terrace/patio , or anything relating to a seafront location. It is simply a private room in a regular apartment.

3. My booking included breakfast, and the property description itself describes the following « a serene escape with breakfast, a peaceful garden, and stunning views from the terrace. ». However , they did not offer me any breakfast whatsoever and said that this accommodation does not include breakfast.

4. I also booked it because they claim to offer a shuttle bus to the airport. However, they don’t. They offered me to pay for a taxi as an extra charge.

5. The AC unit in the room is controlled by the administrator, I could neither change the temperature or any other control on my own. I had to message the property manager every time I needed an adjustment.

6. It’s an apartment, on the first floor of a building, with entrance / kitchen & 4 separate rooms each with its own bathroom. Very basic. ABSOLUTELY NOT AS SHOWN IN PICTURES OR DESCRIBED.

We had to wait over 40 mins for the check in, since the owners were not on site (and we didn't receive any heads up about it).
The position of the b&b is great, but the service and check out experience was quite unpleasant, as we were rushed out of the room in quite an un-polite way.

The location of the B & B was difficult to find. We had to call twice for assistance, and on the second call, the host was nice enough to meet us close by and guide us.

The downside, we weren't given the room we booked. We were brought to another room, in a basement, and when my husband asked about the room we had booked, he was told there was a toilet issue and we couldn't have that room. From booking a room with a terrace on the second floor with a private bathroom in the room, we ended up in a basement with no view, two beds, and a bathroom outside of our bedroom in a public hallway. I also asked our host about the AC, as our room was very warm, and received no reply. We were informed of several rules upon arrival, which made us feel uncomfortable and unable to relax.

Terrible attitude to serve and terrible location

A disaster: horrendous service, the lady who attends you has zero customer service, the location is a disaster, not even decent sidewalks, no amenities, no signals or indications on public transportation, you must walk over dubious areas. My recommendation: stay away from this place.

Great Time.

The hotel is nice and the couple that run it are very friendly. The wife is good for Italian but speak to her husband to find things out in English. They are very accommodating and care about you enjoying your trip and time in Bari. The B & B is a little outside of Bari but if you're here, you probably have your own car so its not a big deal anyways. I would stay here again as opposed to being in the middle of all of the bustle of Bari with limited parking.

A home away from home

This small hotel is immaculately kept and the owners were all out to please. The only drawback of this hotel, which is situated pretty close to Bari airport, is that it is not easy to find because it is in a private complex and the road was not available on Garmin GPS. However, on informing the owner that we were lost, he went out of his way to meet us in a nearby road, even at an unearthly hour after midnight!

Great host and a great stay.

This is a wonderful B&B. Italio is just wonderful, very personable and lots of fun. He went out of his way to make our stay comfortable. Lovely accomodations, in modern, well kept building. Free parking is available and wifi worked well. Breakfast was very good, sweet and savory.

Our only complaint is that the blanket and sheets were very short. Be are both tall and they hit us about midchest. To be fair, we never mentioned it to our host so they were unaware of this issue.

B&B is very difficult to find. We finally gave up and they came and got us. The rescue was much appreciated.

I would definitely recommend a stay here and would gladly return.

Durschnittlich guter Service, aber nichts mehr

Despite our notice by phone and email from our late arrival, the B & B was not prepared for it. Had to call twice, door bell war brocken and to wait about 15 minutes until the main gate was opened it, after we were almost 20 minutes looking for the B & B. Very poorly signposted and well hidden.

Forgotten at the breakfast table some medications. Would expect to received a call from the B&B in this regard. We had to drive twice back to the place to pick up these, despite an agreed date.

Generally spoken, surely a nice place in summer and certainly wonderfully view the sea.

Never again

Guest house was extremely difficult to find even with a sat nav. It's located in an inaccessible gated community, with no sign suggesting you might find the guest house inside it. To access it, you are required to ring the owner to let you in (would have saved us a lot of time had we known this before we went looking for the place). Once we arrived we were then told that we had to pay in cash (also not mentioned before we arrived) and were driven to a local ATM at 11pm at night to withdraw the fee. The owner was inflexible and insistent that this was done the night we arrived. Card machines apparently don't work at the weekends in Italy?!! The room was clean but hot and very overpriced. Breakfast was small and the choice limited. I would not return here, nor would I recommend a stay to anyone thinking of going.

Comportement decevant

Alors que tout était payé d avance par internet, et par mail, le propriétaire nous a pris 2 heures de notre temps le matin pour qu on lui règle une différence de 70 euros!! Nous avons dû à nos frais contacter Expédia afin qu ils lui explique que nous ne devions pas payer de frais supplémentaires.
Faire attention car nous ne sommes pas les seuls à qui cela est arrivé. Le petit déjeuner est expéditif, on a à peine le temps de finir que la dame vient nous enlever les tasses. Le jour de notre départ, alors que c etait payé, le petit déjeuner nous a été refusé car nous partions à 6h30. Le déjeuner est servi dans une cuisine equipé d un four à micro onde, frigo. Les gâteaux, confitures, sont des aliments sous vides. Il etait donc possible de préparer à l avance. Déçu

Atención horrible y lugar totalmente desaconsejado

El establecimiento está dentro de una zona comunitaria cerrada sin ningún tipo de indicación, encontrarlo es una odisea. La playa indican que està a 300 metros pero tienes que dar un rodeo andando de más de 20 minutos. La persona que nos recibió fue maleducada, con una pésima atención y grosera. El aire acondicionado lo controla dicha persona y te permite usarlo cuando quiere. Un lugar muy ruidoso ya que el comedor està justo delante de las habitaciones. Sin duda un establecimiento nada recomendable. La persona que nos recibió tuvo la desfachatez de entrar dentro de la habitación aprovechando que habíamos salido y nos desconectó la nevera para que no gastàsemos electricidad.

Delusione stanze sotterranee

L'hotel ha un bel giardino e i proprietari non sono antipatici, anzi. La camera che ci hanno dato era in uno scantinato con finestrella in cima. Analogamente il bagno ricavato in uno scavo del prato posteriore all'edificio (direi abusivamente). L'aria condizionata dei sotterranei è centralizzata, sicché chiudendo a chiave la porta l'aria non arriva in camera. Letto comodo. Parcheggio disponibile. Colazione con alimenti da discount abbastanza scadenti, non all'altezza dei prodotti del sud Italia. Se vi piace dormire in una catacomba è perfetto. Se volete vedere luce e sole andate altrove.

Schwer zu finden. Service Totalausfall.

Trotz Eingabe der Adresse in Googlemaps war das B&B kaum zu finden. Nach 15 Minuten Irrfahrt durch ein unübersichtliches Viertel ohne Straßennamen zeigte uns ein Einheimischer die Residenz Borgo Delfino: Eine mit Schranken geschlossene, von einem Pförtner bewachte Einfahrt ohne jegliche Hinweis auf das B&B. Auf Nachfrage lässt der Pförtner einen passieren und zeigt den Weg. Da muss man erstmal drauf kommen.
In der Pension war niemand zugegen. Ein Anruf bei der angegebenen Telefonnummer bewirkte, dass die Inhaberin nach ca. 5 Minuten eintraf.
Wir haben noch nie einen so unfreundlichen Empfang erlebt. Kein \"buon giorno\", von \"Herzlich Willkommen\" ganz zu schweigen. Sie forderte uns auf unser Gepäck ins Haus und die Treppen hinauf zu tragen. Nun sind wir schon älter, aber dazu körperlich noch imstande. Trotzdem hätte uns ein \"kann ich helfen?\" besser gefallen, zumal die Dame beide Hände frei hatte.
Die Formalien (Anmeldung, Pässe, Bezahlung, nur bar!) wurden korrekt abgewickelt, Schlüssel übergeben. Das im Preis inbegriffene(!) Frühstück wurde für 07:00 bestellt und zugesagt, wir mussten bereits um 07:45 am Airport sein.
Am nächsten Morgen waren um 07:25 noch nicht mal Vorbereitungen für das Frühstück erkennbar. Wir sind daher ohne Frühstück aufgebrochen. Dann erschien doch noch ein Herr, der die Schlüssel in Empfang nahm.
Zimmer und Bad waren sehr geräumig, einfach eingerichtet und sauber. Gefallen hat uns der große Balkon zum Garten mit Fernblick aufs Meer.
