Reviews of Don Nino

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!

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 !

Apartment was very comfortable, clean, spacious. Owner - extremely supportive, helpful and friendly. Breakfast was very good, tasty and hearty, also very good organised. I;d like to rate this apartment and owner more than excellent :)

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.

Everything was good! Thank you very much!! There were so many details that we appreciate!

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.

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.

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.

The property is very close to the city. Easily accessible by foot. The owner is very helpful and friendly. We recommend the property.

Very friendly host. Beautiful room and exceptional cleanliness. Very comfortable beds. Lovely breakfast. Nice balcony with chairs and table in the afternoon sun. Excellent private parking close by at small extra cost. Perfect location within walking distance feom the old town.

Nothing, all perfect!

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

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.

The host Donatella was very friendly, helpful and responsive, even to text messages, offering a quick and clear answers. The room was very clean and cute, only 700 meters from the city centre. If you have a vehicle there is free parking on the street next to the appartment or for an extra 5€ in the courtyard. We didn't need it. Breakfast was delicious, typical Italian. We were out of season so the terrace was already closed. Highly recommended.

Place was very nice and clean. Really exceptional garden to realx a bit. Our host was very nice and kind. The breakfast offered was also perfect! The city center is not far away, the neighbourhood was very safe.

Just a minor thing: maybe it would be better if the kitchen/equipments were accessible throughout the day.

Super comfortable and clean. Beds were really good and shower was amazing. Good toiletries were also provided. The room has a small balcony that leads to a shared winter garden which is gorgeous and very nice to have the breakfast or just hang out. Breakfast was also pretty good, full of options. Staff was really nice.

It wasn't super close to the city center, like 15min walk, but a safe and pleasant area. There is no proper parking, but we could find a place on the street.

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

The host Donatello was very friendly and helpful throughout our stay! The rooms were super clean and the breakfast was amazing with a nice variety. The best part is the shared garden space where we would often enjoy a glass of wine at night! Definitely will be staying here again next time I’m in Lecce!

Nothing

Beautiful apartment, very clean and comfortable. Excellent breakfast. Very pleasant hosts. Our son loved the cats 😊 10 minutes of slow walk to the old city.

Nothing

- good location, 15 minutes from the historic center - quiet and apparently very safe area - the possibility to park at a reasonable price in a location 2 minutes away - the cleanliness in the room was perfect - for those who like Italian breakfast, then it is very good breakfast

- not the most comfortable beds - the relative prohibition of access to the kitchen is annoying... - the system designed to have breakfast with the host who comes at the first hour to prepare it (and we thank her for that) and stays until the end, with the plates walking around the rooms to the terrace back and forth...with the cats walking around on the table...it is uncomfortable and the feeling is of lack of privacy PS (reply to the property post): - you are confusing us with others guests in your post and it is right to tell the truth... We put our bags in our car and left after breakfast at 9 o'clock in the morning from Lecce to Bari so we are not the people you mentioned. You didn't make any concessions to us during our stay and we complied with your rules because that's what we thought was right. But getting over your confusion - regarding the B&B system, leaving aside the fact that you should specify this mention in the description, we have stayed in B&B locations before and still we did not have the impression that we were being followed. Maybe you should take this into consideration for your future guests...the people are different...there are people who prefer privacy before breakfast... We don't regret choosing your place, the quality-price ratio is good, but we wouldn't do it again and it is our opinion. All the best to you!
