Large, beautiful, nicely decorated room in a truly amazing apartment on the top floor of the building. This means you have access to a large roof/patio with a most amazing view of Naples, including Vesuvius! The apartment is the home of a friendly family who made us feel welcome. The building is located in the heart of the Centro Storico, a really perfect location in an area with lots of great restaurants, bars, cafes, and historical sights... I think this neighborhood is the best place to stay in Naples.

The room has its own bathroom which is nice, but the water pressure in the shower is very low, so if that matters a lot to you, then you won't be happy with the bathroom.

There are a lot of stairs (about five tall stories) and no elevator, so if you aren't in great shape, or you have bad knees, you should look for something else. We actually liked the fact that after stuffing ourselves with the best pizza on earth, we were forced to exercise to get back to our room!

SImone made sure he was accessible by cell phone which was good, because the tiny street is hard to find and even our taxi driver didn't know where it was.

If you reserve this room, make sure you make very clear arrangements with Simone before arriving (you need to know which apartment to buzz from the street and they have to be sure someone is waiting for you. SImone's brother came down to let us in and helped with our luggage, which was very welcome. I'd say this room is great value for the money, if you aren't addicted to luxury bathing and you can handle the stairs. We are glad we found it.
