I stayed in Francesco’s place on a work trip for 1 week with 2 other colleagues. We were working with the local architecture students. We all really liked the apartment and Francesco and his accomplice Luigi were very nice hosts. In fact, we had accidentally booked 1 3-person room instead of 3 1-person rooms and when we arrived, Francesco offered us a 2nd room for the 1st few days while a spare room was available. The apartment is bright with high ceilings and nicely decorated. However, the shower/toilet leads directly into the communal eating area which can be awkward when there’s a room full of people eating breakfast! The location of the apartment is quite central at the end of a long market street referred to as ‘Spacanapolli’. It isn’t near any metro stations though which would’ve been very handy at times. It can be loud at night time and there are 8 flights of stairs to climb to the 4th floor without an elevator. It was raining heavily for a good deal of our trip but we were able to use the umbrellas provided by Francesco which was great. Other facilities included a laptop and leaflets about the attractions of Naples. I’d advise you to bring your own shampoo and shower gel etc because the ones they provide are very poor. There is a breakfast provided but it is very very basic and in a food city like Naples, I would recommend that you pick up your breakfast elsewhere as food and great coffee in Naples tends to be cheap anyway. Our towels were changed mid-week without us even having to ask. This was nice given that there was so much rain throughout our stay. Be advised that you will only be given 1 key per room. We were 3 people working in different areas of the city to each other and in different groups so we couldn’t just simply drop back to the apartment to drop off bags or get dry clothes after the rain whenever we wanted. As a result of this, on our 2nd last night, which was the day we were finished working, one of my colleagues went for drinks with the students she had been working with and didn’t get home until the early hours of the morning. Her phone battery had died so she couldn’t call us to let her in. Because of this, she ended up making noise which woke some of the neighbours. She was also accused of breaking a clock in the apartment (but this was never shown to us). This meant that Francesco and Luigi were not very happy and made it very clear that we were no longer welcome and as a result, our last day and night were very awkward. They unfairly tarred all 3 of us with same brush eventhough 2 of us were asleep in bed early. They used the word ‘disrespect’ to us which I found to be quite insulting given that 2 of...
