This was our first ever AirBnB and we stayed 5 nights in Sonia's wonderful, modern, clean and well-equipped studio. As has been mentioned here numerous times the huge terrace is amazing, with lounge chairs, table, seats and such and an incredible view over the bay of Naples.

The flat is extra comfortable, and the air-condtioning is much appreciated. The WiFi is a bit slow, don't try and stream movies, but it is reliable and meets most needs.

The location of the flat is excellent in the heart of the Chaia neighbourhood. There's a great café at the bottom of her street with very reasonably-priced coffees and meals. The bar at piazza Reale is incredible as well. Have a glass of Prosecco for 8 € and they bring enough aperitif snacks to avoid having to have an appetiser for any meal afterwards: olives, crisps, tiny crustless sandwiches or tiny pizzas.

Sonia was always available and provided invaluable information such as parking and restaurants. We never got to meet her, as she was working and we were out all evenings, but her mother was most welcoming and was also constantly available as she lives on the floor underneath.

A few points to note:
The flat is in a pedestrian district which requires a bit of walking and the small street which goes up to the flat is uphill with a few steps. Although there is a list to the top floor there are stairs to get to the lift and stairs to get from the lift to the top floor. If you're coming with heavy luggage, as we were, be prepared for a hot uphill walk. We were lucky enough to find a man in the street who offered to help us with our luggage all the way to the lift. At the end of a long day walking throughout Naples those last few steps can be particularly tiring. But all is forgotten when opening the door on that huge, beautiful and relaxing terrace.

As noted there is no clothes washing machine and there is no laundromat nearby. We were able to hand wash, when needed, in the kitchen sink.

Do not bring or rent a car. It's not worth it. Driving in Naples is more dangerous than anywhere I have driven in the world. Parking is 25 € per night, even with Sonia helping and contacting the local parking lots for us, and is practically obligatory as it is widely known that if you leave a car on the street in Naples overnight it will not be there in the morning. If you want to rent a car, to go to Pompeii/Vesuvio or elsewhere, then rent it for the day so as to not have to worry about night parking.

Overall a wonderful find and we would highly recommend this to anyone looking to stay in Naples.
