This home is exactly as described with one exception: although it has no stairs within the home, one must climb a set of stairs from one street level to another street level. Not difficult, unless you have mobility issues or very heavy suitcases. It was fine for us (all in our 60’s and with lots of souvenirs in our suitcases) but it might be an issue for others. It was often noisy at night due to street traffic, but there is nothing the owner can do about this.
The positives are many! Clean, lots of extra special touches (toiletries, coffee, sugar, cookies), plenty of towels, comfortable beds with numerous pillows, large bathrooms with new fixtures and plenty of hot water.
There are many fruit and veg shops and bakeries right close by. At the bottom of the stairs a liquor store where one can buy wine out of the barrel. Helpful people all around Naples. Just a quick walk to the Metro station. 5 minute walk to the historic center of Naples and the Archeological Museum. About 20 minutes to walk down to the water front.
There are no laundry services nearby, but you only need to jump on the metro to the Girabaldi station and there is a self serve laundry steps away. (www.expresswash.it)
Stefano was quick to respond to all of our emails. Clementina, who met us at the apartment, gave a detailed orientation of things to see and do. She was incredible.
If you are OK with the stairs and can overlook some street noise, this will be a great place for you!
Thank you Stefano!
