Marina's apartment was a great base to explore Naples and surrounds from. Considering it's in the historico centro part of Naples (i.e. there's lots of activity everywhere you step!), the apartment felt like a refuge. It's well insulated so noise isn't an issue, especially from the bedroom (and like other guests have commented, the bedroom is huge!!!!!!). We got alot of value from Marina's information pack, it was thoughtfully compiled. The map Marina provides is better than the one from the information centre, really important as Naples is difficult to navigate. The apartment is on the top/fourth level with great north and south views, including a major basilica and the hills of Vomero. Yes, Naples has a dodgy/unsafe reputation. We spent 8 nights in the apartment and felt super safe (there's a bank vault-like locking system in place!!!!), and anyway, Naples didn't feel anymore unsafe than any other large European city.
Overall, we highly recommend Marina's apartment. The only thing to note is there was no TV, so if you're into Italian soapies you might be disappointed. Don't worry about soccer coverage though, it's everywhere, bars, outdoor trattoria's on TV's and big screens, go Napoli!!!!!!!
