First, let me say what a fabulous host you will have if you rent from Fabrizio. From help with transportation, to tours, to restaurant and attraction recommendations, he was wonderful! The apartment was exactly as described with two bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms and 2 A/C units. Also described is the fact that it’s up on the 3rd/4th floor, with no lift. What isn’t said is that each floor is not up only one flight of stairs, but up two flights. So when counted, there are approximately 100 steps up to reach the apartment. My poor mom was winded and had to stop for breaks on each trek up. I was fine, but I’m in my thirties and am very active, so minus a slight spike in heart rate and breathing, it wasn’t so bad. In fact, I may have lost a few pounds while eating pasta and gelato for three days, so I’m happy.
My only other complaint is that during our visit, the A/C unit in the living room was not operational. I felt for Fabrizio as he tried to get it working, but we arrived on a holiday weekend, so finding a repair person wasn’t possible. We made do with the one unit, but it was pretty warm in the downstairs bedroom and if the windows were left open, it was a bit noisy at night. Again, not his fault or a huge issue, but it was frustrating not to have the 2nd A/C working.
If you are able and Fabrizio is available, don’t miss his day tour of Sorrento, Positano and Amalfi. Worth every penny and more! The restaurant he brought us to served delicious food, which catered to my vegetarian diet, and it had a fantastic view of the water and town below. An absolutely wonderful day!!!
(And please tip him and the restaurant if you love it as much as we did!)
