We only met mama Angela on our arrival but what a joy - my very limited Italian was enough to understand her very cheeky sense of humour and everything was perfetto! Very close to the station but we had no safety concerns. Very easy for early trains, trains to Herculaneum and the metro. Metro easy and spotlessly clean. If you arrive late in the day, the street has a lot of rubbish but next morning, all is clean and swept. Four blocks in the direction of the station is a nice shopping area with green grocer, fish, butcher, supermarket and great pizza/ cake shops. Lots of migrants in Via Torino but they were no hassle and useful if you want new sunglasses or second hand clothes. Use the lift, it's slow but the second floor is much further than you think.

Easy, quiet, comfortable. I will recommend this to my friends
