Lovely place, in a great area. I stayed there on my own, as my family live in Naples. I always felt safe, and the apartment was very safe and clean. The street is a little bit noisy, but in a typically Italian way, just the neighbours (old and young) meeting for food and living life! All the neighbors were happy and friendly. The apartment was as described, 30-second walk to all the restaurants and bars, less the 2 minutes walk to the beach. The train station (Piazza Amedeo) is less than 5 minutes walk, which takes you straight into Montesanto (1 stop) I had a CAR too.. now be prepared there are lots of car parking spaces, but they are always full. It's 1.50 Euros for the first hour and 2 Euros for every hour after! BUT there's a great garage at the top of the road 'Garage Santa Maria' its 20 Euros a night (come and go as you please) but if you are there for a few weeks I'm sure they will do a deal with you, all really lovely guys and very safe. Didn't speak English but still had a joke with me every day, loved them. Overall, I will stay there again. Safe, clean, and friendly. Oh, and dont forget the cash for the cleaning fee!!
