First, the good: it was a beautiful, clean apartment. Beds were great, water pressure and heat were perfect. Air conditioner worked perfectly. Cannot say enough good things about the apartment itself.
The bad: in America we call the ground floor, the ground floor. The apartment had a lot of steep steps to reach it. My elderly parents were not prepared for this. It is actually on the second story.
Naples isn’t picturesque as imagined. Luckily we only used the apartment as a gateway to Pompeii and a trip to Amalfi Coast. I don’t know if all of Naples is like this but the area was mixed with refugees. It is quite rough looking on the outside.
The WiFi did not work at all. After reading through the reviews I believe it hasn’t been working. It would not have kept us from staying there, it was just an inconvenience.
Paola was punctual in answering questions about a day trip to Amalfi Coast. She even set us up with a private taxi driver. She allowed us to drop off our luggage on the way through too. Perfect hospitality!
My only concern was the location. Not being from Naples and Italy I may have it all wrong but the area seemed run down. Maybe all of Naples is like this? This is NOT a reflection of the apartment though. The space is a diamond in the rough!
