Our stay at Mariano was probably one of the best and smoothest experience we had at an Airbnb. His father, Pepe was there when we arrived to let us in and show us around. The place was perfect for us, 2 adults and 1 child (5yo). The street/door was a bit difficult to find at first, especially when you are not used to the small, cramped alleys of Naples, but some very nice neighbours helped us along the way. When we had to leave :( early in the morning, Mariano booked a Taxi for us. Thank you! Also, there is a nice little shop nearly in front of the building, so I could run downstairs in the morning and grab some bread & ham before going to explore the town (1 euro for the bread, 2 euros for the ham!).
One thing I should mentioned on our first impression when we arrived in Naples; we were a bit doubtful about the neighborhood, but after talking with Pepe and spend a few hours walking around, we changed our mind. Still, be wary of the VERY fast scooters zooming by and the slippery paving on the street.
The flat is super clean and very cozy, but you can hear the people in the stairwell fairly well, so if you plan to sleep late, some earplugs might be in order. The apartment is VERY close to the old city, like 5 minutes, but also a 20 minutes’ walk to the harbor (with 2 CASTLES!). WIFI & all appliances worked great, no worries.
Last but not least, the food… THE FOOD. Goddam you Italy! Sooooo gooooooood.
