When you love what you do and do it with heart, the results are on another level. This is exactly what Donatella offers her guests—with her kind hospitality, amazing breakfasts, exceptional cleanliness, and overall extraordinary effort to make your stay the best it can be. We stayed for four days, and during those four days, Donatella made sure we had breakfast options that rival those of a high-end hotel. There was nothing missing. She brings fresh fruit and croissants directly from the market, prepares any kind of coffee you like, offers whole wheat bread, and generally serves a breakfast she would want for herself—using only high-quality products. The room is spacious and impeccably clean. The bathroom is newly renovated and also spotless—and curly-haired guests, you’ll appreciate the diffuser attachment on the hairdryer! There are even makeup removal wipes provided. The entire room and B&B are decorated with beautiful attention to detail. I think this is the best B&B I have ever stayed in. It absolutely deserves five stars. Thank you, Donatella—and see you next time!

Just keep in mind that you’re in Italy, staying in a beautifully renovated building—so complete sound isolation isn’t to be expected. For us, it wasn’t a problem at all; the noise level was low and never disturbed us.

Simply the best ! Many hosts are friendly and kind, but they don't hold candle to Donatella. What a doll. She is genuine, warm, loving as well as kind, helpful, available and goes the extra mile to accommodate you as, for example, not just finding a hair salon for my wife, but walking with her to accompany and help her along the way. The accommodations were excellent, the breakfast delicious, the location wonderful as well as the private parking arranged by her and her partner Davide, another gem. We will go back next time in Lecce without a doubt. You cannot go wrong here.

Niente, nothing, rien, nada !

This place was amazing. It was immaculate, comfortable, new and beautiful decorated with each room providing confortable in suite bathroom and great air conditioner, we slept very well. The owner, Donatella, has great attention to details and it shows in the property and also in the service. Breakfast was abundant and excellent with an assortment of Italian style samples and savory options and drinks. We found parking across the street, but there is also private parking you can use for free. The center of Lecce is very close 10-15 walking and you can explore the center of beautiful Lecce without having to move your car. I would highly recommend this place and definitely stay again here with my family. If you are browsing and comparing places, just book Don Nino if you find it available. Everyone in my family, including myself, was very happy about staying in Don Nino.

Everything was great

Beautiful accommodation with a caring and helpful host. The location is peaceful, yet conveniently close to both the town center and the train station. Breakfasts were excellent, and everything was spotlessly clean — just like new. Daily housekeeping was provided. We especially enjoyed relaxing on the large terrace in the shade of cacti. We stayed for four nights and didn’t miss anything.

Donatella and Davide were great hosts - friendly and helpful throughout! When we arrived Donatella helped us to find the private parking and gave us some tips about Lecce. There is a lovely balcony with some cats and tortoises where we spent the evenings and could unwind after a busy day exploring the city. The property is in a quiet area and just a 15min walk to the center where you can see all the sights.

Had a wonderful stay at Donatellas place. Great host, delicious breakfast each morning, walkable to the city centre, plenty of restaurants in the area, and really comfortable stay with plenty of space to relax on the terrace area (and loved the four cats living there!)

More personal preference but I found the bed a bit too hard for me however my partner enjoyed it.

Located in a quiet neighborhood and close to the old town (~10-12 min walking distance). You can find free parking nearby but to be on the safe side we asked our host, who was very helpful and kind, to reserve a spot in a secure private parking lot for us (it is across the street for 5 EUR). The room was cosy, well-equipped, especially the bathroom (great shower) and has access to the terrace. We enjoyed a delicious breakfast (buffet style with lots of options) on the beautiful, green terrace which we shared with other guests and the house cats. The grey one was a bit cheeky and tried to sneak into our room. :D We can definitely recommend this B&B and hope to return some day.

Everything. А flawless hostess Donatela ready to fulfill all your wishes, a beautiful terrace, a generous breakfast with the most delicious pastries in Lecce, daily cleaning, high-quality cosmetic products, and a welcome bottle of wine. I definitely recommend it!

Nothing!

Exceptional B&B, about 16 minutes walk from the train station with luggage & just less than 20 minutes walk from the beautiful old town of Lecce. Donatella was a superior host, she was so friendly, personable and accommodating. The B&B is immaculate, with lots of very thoughtful touches such as a fridge in the room. The shower is amazing & shower products were lovely. In our room we had a small balcony also. We ate breakfast on the terrace which is absolutely beautiful, Donatella has the most amazing arrangement of plants & nice places to sit. We met the four cats who were nice & friendly, our children loved them! Breakfast was very generous with yoghurt, fruit, pastries, cheeses, coffees, juices & a variety of delicious breads, there was so much to choose from. We hope to return for another stay & would recommend the B&B 100%. Thanks Donatella!

Nothing

It is an excellent choice to visit Lecce. Very beautiful , extremely clean apartment. The hosts are very kind and helpful. The breakfast has all you need. The location is excellent, a few minutes walk to the old town. Parking in the street is not a problem in low season. We highly recommend it.
