We had a wonderful stay at Rachele’s beautiful home in Altamura.🌹 Rachele is one of the kindest, most thoughtful and attentive hosts we have ever met. She made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived and went out of her way to ensure we had everything we needed. She is truly the perfect host, and we were genuinely sad that we had booked just one night, as we would have loved to stay longer and enjoy more of her wonderful hospitality. The house itself is beautiful, full of character and absolutely spotlessly clean. The photographs on her Booking.com listing are a true reflection of the property, showing exactly how lovely the home is. Everything was beautifully presented, and so much thought had clearly gone into making guests feel comfortable. There were even toiletries and laundry products provided, and having a washing machine and everything we needed made our stay particularly convenient. The location is simply unbeatable, literally right next to the magnificent Duomo in the heart of Altamura. It is the perfect base for exploring this charming town on foot and enjoying its wonderful atmosphere. Breakfast deserves a special mention, too! Rachele prepared a delicious breakfast for us, and her scrumptious homemade jam was an absolute delight. It was such a lovely personal touch and made us feel especially well looked after. What really sets Rachele apart, however, is her extraordinary kindness. Even after checkout, she was more than happy for us to leave our bags while we continued exploring. When we returned to collect them, she very kindly offered us coffee and drinks. Nothing seemed too much trouble for her, and these thoughtful gestures meant so much to us. We cannot praise Rachele and her beautiful home highly enough. The combination of the perfect location, immaculate accommodation, thoughtful amenities, delicious breakfast and, above all, such a genuinely warm and generous host made our stay truly memorable. Thank you, Rachele, for everything.

Nothing

The location is ideal, right around the corner from the Altamura Cathedral and within easy walking distance to everything we wanted to see, including the famous 13th and 14th century bakeries making the incredible Altamura bread and special foccacia, plus the DiCecco cheese shops that sell only cheeses that they make. The apartment is large, with a comfortable couch and several different chairs and tables, along with a large bedroom. The shower had good hot water and pressure. Rachele, the hostess wants her guests to be as satisfied as possible, attentive to our needs. Please let her know what kind of breakfast you prefer and she will prepare it for you. We don't usually eat sweets in the morning and felt bad not eating Rachel's first breakfast of pastries- looking fresh and beautiful. Once we told her about our preference, she made omelettes and provided prosciutto and cheese as well the next morning. Very generous on her part.

Finding parking just outside the walls of Altamura is challenging. We were there right before a 2 day festival, which made it more difficult. We had to park a 15 minute walk away lugging our suitcases and belongings uphill. Once at the apartment, you need to take your bag up and down stairs through a tiny courtyard and then up again. Keep that in mind. We are both 81 and in good shape, but found this challenging. The bed in the large and accommodating bedroom is very soft, probably much to many people's liking, but for us it was too soft.

It was so indicative of Italy.

Well lots of steps
