Francesca’s place was incredible. We were dazzled by the beautiful furnishing, charmed by the space and delighted by the hospitality.
First of all, you should know the space is BIG and completely gorgeous. The furniture is mostly antique and extremely tasteful. Every detail and amenity is accounted for. I would recommend this place to absolutely anyone visiting Napoli. It is an extremely memorable experience.
Second and most important, Francesca is fantastic. We greeted Francesca at the apartment and she is in a word, phenomenal. She told us all about her gorgeous place and walked us through every small item that might need explaining. From that point onwards, Francesca helped at every turn and even gave my mother a beautiful present which made both my mother and I cry with gratitude and amazement!
Also, Francesca was kind enough to recommend beloved Neapolitan restaurants and to refer us to her friend Massimo who drove us around on several occasions. As if Francesca’s kindness wasn’t enough, Massimo generously offered to drive us to and from the train, airport, to restaurants, and on a tour of the city all for an exceptionally competitive price.
I recommend La Riggiola to anyone visiting Napoli and would give it six stars if I could!!
