We were picked up at the train station by Fabiano, Dafne's brother, and driven to the apartment. This was an excellent introduction to Naples, and he pointed out some sights along the way. On arrival, Dafne gave us a great rundown of the area and restaurants, and a tour of her very inviting and comfortable apartment.

The apartment is exactly as advertised, with excellent water pressure in a well equipped shower (plenty big for a stand-up), extremely comfortable beds, and plenty of space with bedrooms at opposite ends of the unit. The decor and furnishings are extremely warm and homey feeling, a great sanctuary from the intensity of Naples.

The location is extremely central, near Spaccanapoli and other old areas of Naples that are great for walking and enjoying the life of this great city. You can't go wrong with any of the pizzerias close by, or the pastry shops, or the restaurants, etc. Naples had by far the best food of our Italian trip, and that's saying something!
