The unique design of Demetrio's apartment is one of the reasons I love staying in AirBnBs. I've stayed in a lot and I will remember Demetrio's place as one of the coolest. I would have loved to learn more about how he developed the lay-out. On top of the fascinating architectural design, Demetrio offered top-notch hospitality in his communication, flexible check-in, complimentary beverages, and his overall great attitude.
I traveled to Naples with a family with small kids so being close to the Mergellina train station was convenient because it made it easy for us to hail a taxi and provide directions for return trips. With small kids, taking a taxi everywhere was just more convenient even though it may have not been the most cost effective. We did however, walk down to the Lungomare and rent a family bicycle to cruise the water front along Via Partenope.
Also during our three-day trip we visited the Bourbon Tunnel and Castel Sant' Elmo which were very toddler friendly. At the end of the day, after putting the kids to bed, we watched the Neapolitan night life that the city is famous for from the birds-eye of the balcony. For caffe and food, we visited Poesia Caffe across the street, Gran Caffè La Caffettiera near the Via D. Morelli entrance of the Bourbon Tunnel, 50 Kalo by Fontana della Serina, Friggitoria Vomero, and Patriacia's Pub food truck set-up along the Lungomare.
