Following a long drive, arriving later than we had hoped, nevertheless, we were warmly welcomed; given a thorough introduction to all amenities; and settled in comfortably for the night. Waking well-rested to morning light from a quiet side-street, and beginning to move about in preparation for an early breakfast and the day ahead, we became more aware of our spacious surroundings. Passing as we did from bedroom to sitting / living areas to dining room and meeting our host there, our sense of congenial reception was re-affirmed: an experience of being welcome visitors to the family-home of those used to generosity and thoughtful accommodation.   And then, (with some digital translating help), weaving conversation with an ample breakfast begun with espresso and unique Altamura cake and pastry, we found means to share aspects of family history (along with, yes, intermittent play with a most affectionate and energetic family puppy) . . . And when morning rain delayed our departure, further engagements offered opportunities to refine our Altamura exploration plans; to clarify directions for a later-afternoon departure; and to settle accommodations for the coming night - all most helpful and informative - And here, by way of summary: though brief our overnight stay - appreciative of our "Malandri" visit and its hospitality, of its 'old city' environs and the Altamura story - however personal circumstances and planning might allow - we encourage visitors to prepare to savor the "Malandri", Altamura experience - D & S

a stylish and lovingly furnished, well-kept villa and rooms. centrally located and yet very quiet. friendly and helpful family. for me, the most exceptional overnight stay on a 4-week trip through Italy, where I generally always had a good night's sleep. I would recommend it to any friend.

some of the famous Altamura bread for breakfast additional

There aren't many places I stay where I am so blown away by the room that I take a video and share it with friends and family to boast. The breakfast was lovely but the homemade biscuits were sensational!! Location is perfect to be near enough to explore and far enough away to get a good night sleep.

everything was as described and as in the pictures. extremely clean and fragrant, spacious apartments, delicious sweet breakfast, beautiful old building, friendly owner.

Nothing

This is probably the best room I have ever had, ever! It's unbelievably pretty and cozy. You can't get this room at the Ritz for $1000. The town is very cute. Breakfast is good. Hosts are great

Great location and nicely equipped room. We had everything we needed. The host was great and reacted fast on my last moment request to prepare a room with two separate beds, ehen my friend decided to join me.

There is no parking directly at the place, but a lot of free parkkng options nearby.

A wonderful stay in a perfect location in entral Altamura. Kind staff, beautiful room with terrace. Very clean, good shower, comfortable bed. Very good price.

Excellent location in the very center of Altamura, 2 minutes walk from the cathedral. The room was nice and clean, the bathroom spotless, the hosts friendly and helpful.

It is not so easy to find a parking place very close. The breakfast is Italian style with only sweet stuff, which is of course understandable, however we would have preferred some salty things as well.

Easy access to all amenities

Lack of car parking .had to park at a distance.

Excellent Place! Nice host, good apartment, great breakfast.
