Our stay at Dimora Fantasia Charme was our favorite accommodation on our trip through Puglia and Rome. The location was ideal; in a more typical and authentic urban area, yet an easy walk to the historic downtown sights and the 'lungomare' coastal promenade. The train station is a 5-minute walk for easy day trips to nearby cities. We found the facility to be very clean and welcoming. Our large room was pleasantly adorned with local decor and nicely furnished with a comfortable bed and furniture. It included a private patio and a spacious bathroom with a modern, stylish shower and an electric towel warming rack. Other thoughtful amenities were included for convenience and comfort, from ample charging outlets and lighting switches to plush linens and towels. The breakfast spread was also wonderful with offerings for every palate like warm breads and pastries, eggs, cheese, yogurt, fresh fruit, and juices. Coffee drinks and teas were made to order. Aside from the facilities, what made a difference was the dedication of the host, Donatello, and his staff. His hospitality shows his passion for ensuring guests’ comfort and satisfaction. Organized, approachable, and ever-ready with recommendations and information, he helped make our visit to Bari more enjoyable.
