We had the honour of staying in Giovanni’s beautiful apartment. He had kindly offered us to drop off our bags early while we toured Pompei, but when his guests checked out late he offered to store our bags at his Aunts home next door. Very considerate and thoughtful! He provided wine and some deli snacks, and was always so quick to answer any questions. His English is perfect, as one would expect given his wife is from Australia! Naples is a chaotic place but is utterly charming...it is a taste of the authentic Italy and we enjoyed it. Do take advantage of the location...close to the metro and the Centrale, and also close to two amazing pizzeria, da Michele and d’Angeli (superior in our opinion). Also the Gelato place near da Michele is amazing.
Thank you Giovanni for hosting us in your spacious, sparkling clean apartment, and for being the perfect host. We will be back one day, God willing!
