Dante 138 Class Rooms & Apartments

The tasty breakfasts came with lovely service, and after checkout we could leave our luggage in storage, which was a welcome extra. Inside, the apartment was very clean, with a comfortable bed and effective AC that was a lifesaver in the heat. External blinds also let us keep the room dark when we wanted to sleep in. There’s plenty of space, and it’s close to the bus and train station and the main shopping street. The old city is nearby too, and buses to the beaches are easy to catch. The owner was very nice, quick to reply, and helpful with any questions.

The room was spotless and small, but comfortable enough for one person, with a surprisingly generous balcony. It’s a short walk to the seaside and fairly near the town center. Check-in is self-service, with all the instructions sent over WhatsApp. There’s a deal with a parking garage a few streets away for 15 EUR per night. If you can find a street space, parking is free from 22:00 to 08:30, though getting lucky with a spot at night is part of it. Breakfast was the weak point for me: just a croissant, orange juice, and coffee, which really wasn’t much.

A simple, clean little hotel with everything we needed for our time in Bari. The location made it easy to walk to the old city, central station, and beach. They also provide vouchers for croissants and coffee at the nearby cafe.

The room was very comfortable and exceptionally clean, and the staff were helpful. The location was perfect.
