Before our visit we had heard a lot of negative reports about Naples but we value the experiences gained there during our 10 day stay. We would recommend a visit before it becomes gentrified.

Our host, Carmine, was well organised and very willing to communicate even before our arrival. The fact that he lives right next door meant that his knowledge was available to us 24/7. He is very proud of Naples and enthusiastically passes on lots of extremely interesting information. He looked in most nights to check on how our day had gone. He was a valued and major part of our Naples experience.

Luckily, Carmine met us at the Toledo Metro and drove us to the apartment. Which was a great help especially considering the difficulty of navigating through the Spanish Quarter with all its hills and narrow lane ways.

We immediately noticed that the airbnb photos & description represented the actual space and surrounds perfectly.
The compact apartment was left clean and tidy for us and the cupboards were generously stocked with the full range of basic requirements. The Wi-Fi signal proved to be strong and reliable.

Staying in the Spanish Quarter was a unique and genuine experience for us. We saw very few other tourists in the area but personally we enjoyed the atmosphere of living within such an historic part of Naples. It may not be for everyone so do your homework and make your choices.
