I sailed a couple of years ago from Igou to Bari. The cheapest ticket was I think, 60 euros for me and bike (or was that pounds?) > This meant sleeping on the open top deck. Tons of room. When the wind got up a bit, the white plastic deck chairs slid around, bouncing off the siderails like billiard balls. Good fun, and too light to hurt you if they hit you sleeping on the deck somewhere. Facilities? - none. Take a good camping mat - the next time I will also take some cardboard boxes, opened and flattened. It's a steel deck.
In future, I would take the ferry further north to Rimini or even Venice, because South Italy was horrible and trashy. I never want to see it again, personally.
