The flat is perfect if your reasonably fit,as their are 3 flights of stairs to negotiate. The two bedrooms are interconnected with the bathroom in the middle. Not great if you 2 seperate families as their are no locks on the doors leading into the bathroom. If anyone is sleeping on the bed settee then they would have to go though a bedroom to access the toilet.To get down to the city the best way is using the Funicolare (cablecar train) which is only 10 mins walk from the building.This will take into the centre of Naples and for 1 .10 euro is good value for money.You can obviously walk down through the Spanish Quarter but its a manic in there with scooters and cars coming at you from all angles. The views from the flat are amazing,as described. All in all a good base to visit the islands,Pompei.and the Amalfi coast.
