A charming, authentically Naples apartment with a view that is simply divine. The apartment was larger than I expected with amazing views from the living area and the bedroom, as well as the rooftop!
It is a bit tricky to find. Our first taxi driver, after having to stop several times to ask for directions, ended up dropping us off far from the apartment. The entrance is off an alley located a block west of the intersection of Via Santa Teresa degli Scalzi and Via Materdei. I think what frustrates the taxi drivers is the matrix of one-way streets that requires one to drive quite a bit out of the way to get oriented in the right direction to get you close to the apartment. If you don't mind hauling your bags a block, the easiest thing is to be dropped off at that intersection. ... The neighborhood is charming. Do eat at Starita Pizza - a wonderful experience. My son had his hair cut at a barber across the street from the apartment and it's one of the best cuts he ever had. There are shops on Via Santa Teresa to buy everything you need for your stay, and the Materdei metro stop is a short walk away. It's also an easy walk to the National Archeology Museum and Piazza Dante. All in all, it was a wonderful Naples experience.
