We informed our host what time we were arriving and he didn’t inform us that it was school pick up time. The apartment is right near a school and it made for an incredibly stressful check in. The gentleman (Gerald, not the host) who met us was lovely and helpful, but didn’t speak a word of English, so we were a little uncertain what was going on when he jumped in our car and started directing us down the road. The carpark was secure, but wasn’t on the premise with the apartment. Once Gerald directed us to our room he then took photos on his phone of our passports and that made us very uncomfortable.
Somehow the host added me on what’s app. I asked the host not to contact me on what’s app, but he continued to do so. I mentioned that air BnB was my preferred method of contact but he ignored this. He didn’t answer my questions when I asked for recommendations on several occasions. In fact, we wondered for a while if we were talking to an automated system, rather than a person.
The location is not central, and it is an effort to get anywhere. Depends where you come from, but you can feel a bit unsafe. Both me, and my partner were a bit concerned.
You might pay a little less to stay here, but you’ll make it up with the cost of train tickets, or taxis.
The room was well stocked with water, juice, cakes and pasta. This was a nice touch. The apartment was nicely renovated.
In conclusion, we left Naples a day early.
