Umberto's apartment is a great find in a location that is near to the real character of Naples. The apartment is lovely and well presented, fresh, clean, spacious and has fabulous views over the city and back to Mt Vesuvius! The kitchen and bathroom are both well equipped and Umberto is a very kind host who thinks of all the little things you might need for your stay. (Note that the apartment is on the 8th floor, but there is a lift if you have luggage). The area seems a little downtown at first, but when you get out and wander along two of the main streets back towards the Duomo (and castle on the hill), you'll find plenty of little shops and restuarants/bars that are true Naplese culture. The churches in the area are absolutely stunning and well worth a visit inside. A bit further on is Via Toledo which is a bustle of shops for tourists and leads to some lovely squares and local Italian handmade clothes/goods. We'd definitely stay here again if we return to Naples!
