Dream Palace

Very clean, and had all the needed facilities. The host was super nice and helpful. We really enjoyed our staying.

The highlight of the vacation at Dream Palace was Francesco. Probably the best host I've met so far. He waited for us, helped us with a lot of recommendations on Google Maps for different places around Dream Palace, tips & tricks that were extremely useful. The place was extremely clean, really good amenities and, the most important aspect, we felt right at home. It's also very close to Bari Centrale station, which helped a lot to move around the city of Bari and places like Alberobello/Locorotondo (the bus station is ~200m further to the left of Bari Centrale train station, for future reference) or Polignano/Monopoli. It's quite close, but more quiet, to the old city (~15-20 min walk) and Francesco taught us all the ways of getting into the old city, which was very helpful. Whenever we'll come back to Bari, this is where we'll stay.

It's more of a preference, rather than truly 'didn't like'. Although we had enough pillows, they weren't to what we were used to (although it's clear that some people will like them. And the mattress, while being very soft, was not necessarily to my taste. Although this, we managed to properly rest at night without any problems. I can't stress this enough: it's a matter of taste, not an actual negative of the place.

We loved meeting Francesco and his family. They made the stay very easy and were hugely accommodating. Great correspondents and information off them regarding our stay.

No dislikes, just the mattress was too firm. (which is just personal preference) Also we would have preferred not to have the smoking room adjoining our apartment.

Super friendly and hospital host. Large and clean appartment, proximity of grocery shop, convenient location at walking distance from train/bus station and Bari old town. You can feel the vibe of local neighborhood and visit Polignano, Matera, Alberobello and other attractions easily, in your own arrangement, without car.
