We had a fantastic week at Pati apartements, we were a bit sceptical at first since it was close to the freeway and there was a truckparking next door. It turned out that the truck stop had fantastic coffee and sandwiches for the morning. The welcoming and service from the aparment owners (HelloChalet), Anna, was really helpfull and welcoming. There is one thing to remember, don't follow Google Maps guide to apartments. It take you to the wrong entrance, coming from Bari, take of the freeway one exit before (petrol station) and the parking for the aparements are on the truck parking that you axxess from the petrol station. Apartements are new and in very good condition, we had AC in all rooms. Everything that you would like to visit is only 30min drive from this location, beach is 4 minutes etc. Very good location for evenings out. The pool area was clean and nice.
You do need a car for this location, but for eating out, taxi was not expensive in the evening going to Monopoli. If one is allergic to noise, the house is only 100meter from the freeway and it is in Italy and they like drive fast. Inside we could not hear the road noise, but at the pool you will.
Thanks to HelloChalet for making our stay comfortable and easy.
