We spent three nights here and were totally impressed with this hotel. The staff is professional, knowledgeable about Bari, helpful and friendly. The reception is manned 24 hours and whenever we came in there was a smiling face to greet us. The gentleman in the breakfast room is a real jewel. His cheerfulness - and flourish preparing and pouring coffee - makes the start of every day special. The room was a standard room, but it was very clean. Bed and pillows were comfortable and bathroom was modern with a good shower head and lots of hot water. Excellent WiFi throughout our stay. We faced the street and had no problem with street noise, even sleeping with the big windows open. The location of the hotel was perfect for us. We were away from the "crowds", but close enough to get anywhere on foot. We traveled to Bari on the train and the station was a 10 minute walk from the hotel. We took day trips by rail from Bari, so again the station was an easy walk. The people at reception always, very kindly, printed schedules for us so we always had lots of options in hand. When we Bari, the shuttle bus to the airport stops across the street on the corner. Hotel staff has all the information. For sightseeing, the Old City is at most 10 minutes away, and again the front desk has all the information and maps you need to find the main attractions. Their restaurant recommendations were perfect for us. Again, we loved the hotel and commend the very efficient staff.
