Fantastic stay!
We had a wonderful 9 night stay in Naples in this beautiful apartment and felt very welcome from the outset. Naples is a hectic city and the Neapolitans live life in the fast lane. Watch out for the mopeds flitting everywhere!
We enjoyed visits to Sorrento, Pompeii and Herculaneum (we used the Campania Express train), walking along the seafront from Mergellina, a peaceful day in Paestum amongst the Greek temples and several days exploring Naples and its impressive buildings, varied museums and busy streets. Food was plentiful, cheap and tasty and we had fun eating our way around the Centro Storico.
The apartment is in a well located residence in the Chiaia district and easy to reach from the main railway station using the metro and funicular.
With excellent facilities and plenty of space, the apartment is clean, well maintained and equipped and has a very comfortable bed. A short walk took us into the heart of the Chiaia district and we felt very much at home in the neighbourhood. John and Paola were brilliant hosts and provided many hints, tips and suggestions to help us plan our days. They were especially kind when we locked ourselves out of the apartment and very generously came to our rescue.
We had a brilliant holiday in Naples and have many happy memories of our stay. We embraced Naples and all it has to offer and it did not disappoint us. We really recommend this superb apartment. There are wonderful views of the bay of Naples from the entrance path and from the bedroom window. John and Paola we send you our thanks for helping to make our stay so enjoyable.
