This place was located ideally for a conference that I had at a nearby hotel. Marcello's apartment is beside the Castel del Ovo, and offers nice views and nearby restaurants. It is nicely provisioned as a vacation home. The only downside is the building in which the apartment is housed is old, with an ancient button switch-operated elevator. Our stay in the apartment went nicely, except for a scare late one night when we got stuck in the elevator while coming back. We had to bang the elevator doors to alert a neighbor, who then called the firemen to open up the elevator and let us out. Incidentally, the elevator operated fine the day we checked in with our luggage. As the apartment is on the second floor, it is best not to use the elevator and use the few flights of stairs instead.
