Palazzo Fiscaiolo

My husband and I stayed here for two nights in the first week of July and had a nice experience in this budget friendly accommodation near one of the main beaches in Monopoli (Cala Porta Vecchia). It was only a few minutes walk away from the beach and this was a big plus! Even before check-in, the owner Andrea was such a pleasure to communicate with and gave us excellent restaurant recommendations. He prepared a nice breakfast every morning on the terrace. We had the room on the ground floor and it had everything we needed. Just enough space for our three pieces of luggage, a TV with Netflix, good sized bathroom, and well functioning AC for the hot summer. It never got loud even though we were located on the ground floor and our door opened right into the street. This is probably because the accommodation, while located central to everything, is on a quiet street with very little foot traffic. This was important to us since we prefer central locations that still provide a quiet & intimate experience. Our room was very modern and clean and it rivaled what other rooms in the more expensive accommodations in the city center looked like from my research. Overall a pleasant stay, great value for the price and Andrea was such a wonderful host!

Clean, cute and centrally located hotel in the heart of Monopoli. Andrea was the best host, and repeatedly went out of his way to make our stay comfortable. Breakfast on the sunny roof was good, Italian breakfasts are more limited than other countries but there was a plentiful selection of tomatoes, patties, cheese, yogurt, sliced meat, juice, fruit and coffee. We were there in the thick of summer and the air conditioning was a bit limited in its ability to cool off the room, but Andrea promptly bought us a fan to help which solved the problem. Generally we loved Monopoli and were glad we chose this adorable seaside town versus inland Ostuni. Note that while you can park in a lot for 30-40 euro a day, if you have a bit of patience you can find street parking not too far from the hotel. All in all, great choice for a stay in Monopoli!
