Excellent location within walking distance of most tourist sights in Naples and short walk to transport to Vesuvius and other out of the city sights. Many choices for places to eat and supermarket within a few minutes. Very helpful host before and during our stay. This studio apartment is one street off a main street. It is a older residential area of apartments and was quiet at night; during the day there were the sounds of small business on the street. Naples is a city of noisy motorbikes everywhere! We felt very safe, there is a locked street door and a solid apartment door, as well as a high police presence in the overall area. (To us, Naples seemed to have a high number of the various types of police all over the city). There are about 10 very steep steps between the front door and the apartment which might be an issue if you had bad knees or carrying a baby seat with the baby in it. No place to park a car and street is very narrow to get a car along - though interesting to sit on the balcony and watch the locals maneuvering and arguing over the parking spaces. I wouldn't recommend having a car in Naples at all! Great place to stay if you want to see how ordinary Neapolitans live - you can even hang your washing on the balcony like they do!
