The rooms are gloomy and the bed was really uncomfortable that I had a very bad back pain for 2 days! They don't serve you breakfast coz you have them all in the room (except the kettle or any other device to heat the water. They have some coffee but could not find how to prepare it without any device so we PAID our own breakfast) It's OK but does not worth 90 euros! Moreover, it was very noisy during the night that we hardly slept.

First, you need to know that it's an amazing place to stay, Alberobello, especially in a Trullo of your own.

Trullidea have a number of trulli throughout the historic centre. Ours was a short walk away, maybe 5 minutes, from their office and up quite a sharp hill so you need to be mindful of that. There is basically no vehicle access so you'll need to trundle your bags up to your trullo.

I had emailed ahead and enquired about accommodation and prices and received a quote back in return. Unfortunately when we checked in they did not want to honour that quote but we stood firm and to be fair to them they stood by their quote in the end.

Our trullo was huge, basically a three bedroom house complete with backyard, kitchen and bathroom. A light breakfast is supplied in the room so you can suit yourself about when you have breakfast. the breakfast was OK but nothing special.

The trullo was furnished adequately, comfortable for our needs but don't go expecting 5 star luxury. The kitchen was fully self contained but we didn't cook at home given that we ere there for just the one night. we found a lovely pasta restaurant just around the corner.

It was raining and extremely cold when we were in Alberobello - the beginning of the very cold snap that Europe experienced last winter - but our cute home stayed warm.

Two things I would say - Alberobello is a very worthy place to visit although I imagine it gets quite touristy at certain times of the year (it was very quiet when we were there). And if you are staying here then you should definitely stay in a trullo. After all, why would you want to visit here and stay in a boring hotel?

Given that, Trullidea is a very good place to go. The only thing I would warn you about is the parking is quite difficult and/or expensive in Alberobello.

I was charmed when I saw Alberobello, and I was equally charmed when I saw that our self -catering Trullo was bang in the pedestrian area now a Unesco Heritage site. Arrival and check in were very smooth and the girl in the reception office was polite and helpful.
The Trullo is tastefully, if simply, decorated with an IKEA cast iron bed and very little else.The kitchenette is mostly usable for cold meals as the electric stove took forever to boil water for tea.The problem, however, was the bathroom. Not only was it the smallest I ever saw, but the shower stall was so narrow that despite the curtains ( a clingy blue affair) the shower spray went far beyond the limits of the cubicle, thus literally flooding the bathroom and the adjoining bedroom floor. We tried to stem the flow with towels but to little result. In the end we accepted that we could only walk in barefoot and in flip flops ( still a very unpleasant experience). Another point is that when it rains or when you have run out of nightlife options ( something that happens very quickly in Alberobello) It is helpful to have communal spaces to spread into. The trullo, practically windowless and rather damp, got very claustrophobic.

We stayed just one night at Trullo Cimmenere. The trullo has everything you need, small living room area, small dining room, kitchinette, bedroom and a big bathroom. We just loved the stay there. We had breakfast inside our trullo. We felt at home in Alberobello. Just to keep in mind, ask in advance where youn trullo is located. In our case our trullo was quite up the hill of Alberobello, so we had to walk with all our luggage between the trullos as the car is not allowed to enter the area. A good option is to carry a small luggage for the days you stay at the trullo and leave the rest of the luggage in the car or in the reception of the Trullos.
