I had the pleasure of staying at B&B Borgo San Martino, and I must say it was an enchanting experience. From the moment I arrived, Alessandra, the hostess, welcomed me with open arms and a warm smile. Her kindness and genuine hospitality made my stay truly memorable. Alessandra was always ready to assist me, offering valuable tips and suggestions for activities. Thanks to her recommendation, I had the privilege of attending an outstanding string concert in a charming little church nearby. The location of the accommodation is simply idyllic, nestled in a narrow alley in the heart of Monopoli's old town. Being centrally located allowed me to explore all the attractions and beaches on foot with great ease. The surroundings exuded a unique charm, capturing the essence of the town's history and culture. The building itself is a testament to meticulous restoration, showcasing its original beauty and character. Every corner oozes charm, and you can feel the love and care that went into preserving its historical significance. My room was impeccably clean and incredibly comfortable, providing a cozy sanctuary after a day of exploration. I highly recommend B&B Borgo San Martino to anyone seeking a delightful retreat in Monopoli. Alessandra's warm hospitality, coupled with the accommodation's picturesque charm, creates a perfect harmony for a memorable stay. Whether you're a traveler seeking relaxation, adventure, or both, this charming B&B is the ideal choice. My experience was nothing short of magical, and I am grateful for the warmth and generosity of Alessandra, making my stay truly exceptional.

I must confess, my experience at B&B Borgo San Martino was so enchanting that I find myself struggling to come up with anything negative to say. It's a perfect little haven in Monopoli, leaving no room for complaints.

Alessandra (the host) was extremely friendly. She gave us lots of tips and recommendations and was super pleasant. She gave us a thorough run down on our first day and always chatted with us when we saw her. Alessandra was always available via WhatsApp to answer any questions. We received a free large bottle of water daily. Breakfast was at a nearby cafe - the cafe had plenty of options including pastries and sandwiches. The room was very authentic and spacious. The room also had a small kitchen complete with cups, glasses, plates, etc.

The towels were thin and a bit rough. The beds were also uncomfortable - could do with a mattress upgrade. The bathroom could use a little shelf to keep your toiletries on. The kitchen included tea bags but we did not see a kettle.

Everything was wonderful! The apartment is a spacious room with a double bed and a small single bed, a dining table, a kitchenette, and a private bathroom. I really enjoyed the authentic interior of an Italian home – it felt as if I were visiting relatives. The room is located under the roof, so during the day it’s necessary to use the air conditioning. A big part of how well we spent our time is thanks to the owner, Alessandra, who welcomed us, kindly told us about the best beaches and places in town, and was always available for any request.

The apartment is accessed by a really steep staircase, but this was not a problem for us. It’s also worth being prepared for the fact that the room is quite dark.

Warm, gracious and friendly staff, the room was spotless and comfortable, everything functioned perfectly, I really appreciated the Italian language help, the location was perfect, the restaurant reccomendation I got was fabulous and affordable... the list goes on, definitely the last stop on my tour of puglia was the best.

I didn't like that I spent too much time in other parts of puglia. As a place to visit Monopoli was my highlight.

This is a lovely room on the top floor of this B&B. It's large, comfortable and the airco works very, very well. The neighborhood is very quiet at night which was a plus, because many old town areas in Pulgia are very noisy and congested. The owner was wonderful, thoughtful & charming. She warned us about construction in the area during the day and even gave us earplugs. It was nice having a kitchenette and several chairs to sit in and spread out our stuff.

The room was a bit of a climb on some steep stairs, but with small suitcases, we managed just fine. Breakfast was offsite.

Very nice and authentic accommodation in the historical centre of Monopoli. The location is central and you can walk everywhere within 10-15 minutes (beach, train station, restaurants). It had all the equipment we needed, even a small kitchen with a moka pot and coffee 🙂. The hosts are very friendly, helpful and communicative, you feel very well taken care of. Monopoli itself is a very beautiful town and it was amazing to stay right in its heart and discover the hidden corners, local cuisine and much more.

The bed was not comfortable and very squeaky, we didn’t sleep so well.

This was the best stay of our trip. Monopoli is beautiful and Alessandra goes out of her way to explain the town and gives lots of excellent, tailored recommendations. The room is very spacious and charming, and much better (and brighter) than the photos suggest. Air-conditioning was excellent. The location was perfect - good access to both restaurants/bars and the main beach. Breakfast was at a nearby cafe, which has good coffee and a great selection of pastries. We got free parking pretty easily nearby, just outside the old town section. Would definitely stay again - wish we’d had longer than our 3 nights.

Nothing.

This place is wonderful!! I only booked for one night because I arrived in Monopoli earlier than expected and had booked other accommodations originally. I stayed here and wish I could have stayed longer. Charming, cozy room in a historic building with a kitchen. Very, very clean. Also, a very comfortable bed. I had an amazing night's sleep. Alessandra was also friendly and helpful. I was able to drop my bags off earlier, and I was able to store my bags there until my other hotel room was ready. The location is perfect in the historic part of Monopoli. There is a 5 min walk to the sea, and a 2 min walk or even less to restaurants and cafes. And a 10-13 min walk from the train station. The area is very safe. I highly recommend this place, and next time I come back, I will stay here longer.

We lived in the heart of the old town of Monopoli, surrounded by white cozy streets. It was very quiet for us to sleep, the guesthouse is in a quiet alley. Ancient building, narrow stairs, triple room clean, spacious, enough space. We found dishes, coffee. A sincere, helpful hostess, rewarded us with nice souvenirs when we left. Breakfast in a nearby cafe, we liked the fresh orange juice. Not far from the train, we visited Lecce, Locorotondo.

Gas stove, there is a gas cylinder, we learned to use it. Maybe an electric teapot would be safer and simpler.

Great location, beautifull apartment and very helpfull host who gave us a lot of tips. The place itself was in a very stylish and old tenement which was absolutelty amazing. We really enjoyed beeing in such historic building maintened with keeping old fasion style. Bathroom could be bigger, but on the other side we were in historic building, thus justified. ;)

Breakfast, (this is why I gave 9 not 10). The idea of B&B accross the word is that full breakfast is included. When I do appreaciate that we were offered 1 coffe and 1 crusant or panini (in coffe bar). This is not meeting my expectations of B&B service and in simple words it is not enough considering price for night.
