Villa Susanna

We hardly ever crossed paths with the owners, since the place is separate and very well soundproofed, which felt different from the usual intrusive B&Bs. It was a peaceful stay in a family atmosphere, in a lovely villa near the airport. There’s a garden and everything you need for a quiet visit. Thank you, we’ll come back.

The location worked well, close to both the airport and the city center, but the room was really dirty and smelled musty. It felt like a garage with no windows, and there wasn’t even a TV. I wouldn’t recommend staying here.

The garden outside, with its table, chairs, and deckchair, was the one nice part. The B&B itself was a letdown. Our room was tiny, around 15 square meters, with barely any bathroom. The supplies were sparse: one coffee capsule, lots of plastic cups, an empty fridge with no water, almost no soap or shampoo, though there was plenty of toilet paper. When the bathroom door was open, the apartment door couldn’t open. Breakfast was just a cappuccino, a packaged croissant, and a glass of water. In the evening, mosquitoes got in because there was no mosquito net, and the TV only had Italia 1. They asked us to pay immediately, as though we might leave without paying, and said the cash payment would be traceable. At €65 a night, it was far too expensive, and I wouldn’t recommend it. Brindisi itself was fantastic, with lots to see, so it was a shame this B&B was part of the trip.

We thought we had booked an annex, but what we got felt like a garage. The furniture and doors were rotten, the walls had silicone patches and fake brick wallpaper, the LED wiring was burned out, and the TV was ALWAYS broken, as other reviews have apparently mentioned. The bathroom was tiny, the shower was broken, and its faucet flooded everything. There were no body cleansing products, and breakfast was UNDESCRIBABLE. I can't recommend this to anyone. A TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT, and an insult to the hotel trade and to B&B owners who run their places with skill, care, and professionalism. P.S. A garage shouldn't cost €100 a night. In those conditions, it should be no more than €10 per person. For €100 or less, you can find proper, comfortable hotels and much better B&Bs.
