Valentina was very kind and helpful as a host. She picked me up from the train station by car, which went above and beyond my expectations. Her place is very clean and the room has a stunning view of the city with Mt Vesuvius in plain view. I had to visit the museum of Capodimonte, so the location worked out, but if you are planning to do things in the historic downtown, then expect a walk of40- 50 minutes.
