Julio is a very friendly host. He welcomed us with a box of delicious local pastries when we checked in! He is also extremely thoughtful: he checked with us every morning, asking if we needed anything and updated us of the weather. When Julio learnt that his next guest would be arriving later than planned on the day we checked out, he immediately allowed us to stay longer in his place while waiting to catch our train. He has been very helpful throughout our stay in Naples and we could not thank him enough for that.
Julio's studio is bigger than I expected, very comfortable for 2 people (plus 2 big suitcases). It was very clean, cozy and well equipped; one can see that the host has put much thought into making the house comfortable. We appreciated the separate shower and toilet, that way one could take a shower while someone else is using the toilet. But since the shower is the all glass shower cubicle type, I imagine this will be more suitable for couples or very close friends.
Julio's apartment is on the first floor and is serviced by an elevator which requires the insertion of €0.10 into the coin box inside. I don't know what happened, but the elevator stopped halfway and trapped us within for a good 1.5 hours. Julio and his friend rescued us by manually cranking the elevator down - kudos to them!
