Salvio's flat was great. It's located (if you will) on the westward extension of the famous straight, east-west street nicknamed "Spaccanapoli," which was the decumanus in Roman times. You simply cannot get any more central than this, and you can walk to any number of the city's major sites and monuments. The flat is extremely comfortable, with a living/dining area, adjacent kitchen and powder room (with washing machine) on the first floor, and a sleeping loft (and main bathroom) upstairs, which you reach via a cute spiral staircase. For those who want to cook, the kitchen is quite well furnished. Everything you need is nearby, including an open-air market, bakeries, and an excellent rosticceria right on the corner, where you can buy various cooked foods at lunchtime.

Salvio met me at the Via Toledo metro station, which was incredibly polite and helpful.

Living in an old flat block in the center of town gave me real insight into how Naples works as a city and how some Neapolitans live their daily lives. I would stay in Salvio's flat again without any hesitation.
