● I had the good fortune to choose this place for our (me and my best friend) five days accommodation in Naples. Mt. Echia (the hill upon which the Greeks built their city, Parthenope) is the ideal location for the traveler who visits this outstanding, beautiful, historic and crazy south Italian city. Few meter’s only away from the hustle and bustle of city life, but so calm, chic, traditional and, above all, safe quarter!
● The room is bright, spacious, clean, simply decorated but exuding gentle Mediterranean grace as well as the hostess. A corridor leads from the room door, either to the stairs up to the front door or to a small balcony (on the right side) with a nice sea view or, at the end, to a very convenient bathroom. The only (unimportant for me) disadvantage is the camp bed which is used as a second bed (besides the big comfortable double bed), when the tenants are not a couple.
● And the hostess, lovely Claudia, was so friendly, courteous, cheerful, helpful, discreet that we felt at home! She welcomed us offering a plate of delicious mozzarella, she gave us valuable tips for sightseeing plans in town, Pompeii and Costiera Amalfitana, and the night before our departure she booked a taxi for us, pre-arranging the charge and making sure that would be on time outside of the house to pick us up to the airport, since it was only 5.30 in the morning and there were not yet buses on the streets.
I have visited many European cities. It’s the first time that I feel so strongly the need to return soon to this Italian treasure, who lies in the shadow of imposing might of Vesuvius!
Thank you, Claudia, for your kind hospitality!
