  We have found most Italians kind and helpful, none more so than Joe de Simone and his family. We are indebted to them for making our stay so enjoyable. Joe's help in resolving a problem with our car on a Saturday morning (by way of an introduction to his Motor Repairers) certainly went beyond the call of duty. Quadrelle is conveniently situated for all the main tourist attractions and the easy access to the autostradas is a bonus. In addition to the historical sites, the shopping centre in Nola - the Vulcan Buona - is well worth visiting. Joe will show you how to get there. The apartment is spacious: the shower in the main bathroom is excellent and the beds are pretty good too. Thanks again to Joe, Rina, Giovanni, Marica and Dario for their hospitality.

  I just returned from a visit of Southern Italy in the State of Campania on November 14 2012. We stayed in a Beautiful apartment in a quaint little town called Quadrelle in the province of Avellino. Quadrelle is right off an exit from the A16 autostada which makes it a very convenient location to stay. From there it was an easy drive to Naples, Pompeii and Sorrento but I liked it most because it was an easy drive to the little villages in the mountains of Avellino where all my family originated from. I even walked to a bus stop to take a bus to Avellino then transferred to another bus to take me to the mountain villages of my family. While I was taking the bus my friends were touring by car in the Naples area. At night we would meet up at our apartment in Quadrelle and walk to neighborhood restaurants which there are many good ones. My friends and I felt perfectly safe walking around the streets of Quadrelle day or night. We met several residents of Quadrelle; all were very pleasant and helpful. Everything we needed was in walking distance from our apartment, banks, post office, grocery stores, fish markets, department stores and Church. The apartment is a spacious clean two bedrooms and two bathrooms unit with a big kitchen and sitting room. The kitchen is equipped with plenty of pans, dishes, glasses and other utensils. The apartment is the first floor of a two family house. Joe de Simone and his family live on the second floor. Joe and his family were excellent neighbors and landlords. Joe being born and raised in New Jersey from Italian parents was an excellent source of information. We could ask Joe questions about traveling in Italy that a native born Italian may not understand because of the differences in our two cultures. Joe also knows a lot about Italian Genealogy and how to research data in various villages. Joe does this as a side profession but had no problems giving us pointers as we traveled to various villages to do our own research. I highly recommend Joe’s apartment if you are planning a trip to the various provinces of the Campania region in the Naples vicinity. Even if this is your first trip to Italy I would recommend renting a car and driving to Quadrelle to explore Southern Italy on your own opposed to signing up for some package tour of the region. We flew into Rome and it was only a two and a half to three hour drive to Quadrelle. From Naples it would be around 30 minutes. To sum it up I would recommend this place to anyone.

  Met onze Amerikaanse vrienden verbleven wij een week in het appartement van Joe de Simone in Quadrelle. Het was een aangenaam verblijf met een zeer vriendelijke gastheer en gastvrouw. Joe gaf ons vele nuttige tips, zijn vrouw verwende ons met fruit, koffie en gebak. Het appartement is zeer ruim met grote slaapkamers, elk met eigen badkamer, een gerieflijke living annax keuken en gratis parkeergelegenheid. Het is een ideale uitgangsbasis voor bezoeken aan de wijde omgeving, zoals Napels (zeer vuil!), Paestum, Benevento (schitterende stad), Monte Vergine (interessant), de Amalfitaanse kust, enz. Quadrelle zelf is niet interessant met erg weinig restaurants en zeker geen bezienswaardigheden. Maar zoals gezegd, door de ligging vlak bij de autostrade is het een goede uitgangsbasis voor geheel Campanië.

  Owner response: Dear Willy, Thanks very much for your kind words. We enjoyed hosting you, your wife and friends from the US. Please keep in touch, regards, Joe
