This apartment was lovely. Quiet location. We loved the roof top patio where we had morning coffee and watched over the town at night. The hosts were incredibly pleasant and helpful. We ate our first meal there in their restaurant downstairs and it was delicious. Highly recommend this apartment.

The apartment is in a great location, 10 minute walk to the gate of the archaeological park of Pompeii and the train station, Pompeii Scavi-Villa dei Misteri (there are three train stations in Pompeii, be sure to select this one to be close to the apartment).We also walked to the contemporary city of Pompeii, 20 minute walk, where there are plenty of restaurants, souvenir shops, and artisan workshops alongside historic buildings and churches.Karine was a delight to talk with, giving us a complete tour of the apartment and suggestions for stores, restaurants and sights of the surrounding area. The apartment was clean and comfortable and well equipped. The restaurant below is no longer serving evening meals, just lunch, so there is no late night sounds from the restaurant.We are very happy to have stayed in the apartment and would definitely stay there again.

Hosts were fantastic. They helped us find a great guide to the ruins, at must for Pompei. He was a blast. They gave us great advice on dining and shopping. We spent allot of time chatting, they are very nice and accommodating.Location is excellent. 5-10 minute walk to the entrance of Pompei, and the train station. one hour drive to Amalfi coast, a drive not for the faint of hart, but now on my top 3 of all time, if not number 1. A day trip to Capri is also possible by train and boat. We will visit again since this is a very central location, we did not do Naples at all, so much more to do here. A week is the way to go.

First, our hosts: Karine and Pasquale were warm and welcoming hosts. Communication was primarily with Karine who was great at responding quickly to any questions we had and was always on hand to provide any advice. Karine arranged for a taxi to take us to and from the airport which was 15% cheaper than anything we had found on the Internet. The apartment itself was clean and spacious both inside and outside (although we didn’t get much chance to sit outside due to the weather which was pleasant compared to the UK but a bit rainy, we went in Oct / Nov). There were a few niggly things (eg: none of the remote controls worked as the batteries were flat, on one occasion the rain had seeped through the external door on to the kitchen floor and we had to ask for some towels to get rid of the water, on one occasion the water heating turned itself off and we had to ask for it to be switched back on) that took the edge off our stay…..not major but it was disappointing that they happened. Location-wise, if you want to go to Pompeii ruins (and why wouldn’t you?) and travel by train using the Circumvesuviana to get to Sorrento, Herculaneum and Naples (not Amalfi as some people have suggested, it’s probably close to being a 5 hour round trip from Pompeii) its about as good as you can get with a 5 – 10 minute walk to both. There is a “tourist information office” next to the train station but its actually a commercial business that sells guided trips to Vesuvius and Pompeii….fine if that’s what you want but they will be charging a premium. The nearest Supermarket (a 24 / 7 Carrefour) is 15 – 20 mins walk away which can be a bit of a chore to go to and from as its on the main road into Pompeii new town but was well stocked. One nice surprise was Pompeii new town….its about a 20 – 25 minute walk (continue past Carrefour and bear left) and was quite buzzy and pretty….a nice way to spend an hour or two. We found two great restaurants..The Old West (steak, burgers) and I Matti (pizza, pasta) were both good on service and food Unfortunately, as professional and kind as Karine and Pasquale were, like others who have stayed, we suffered on two occasions from the party’s downstairs which went on until the early hours of the morning at the weekends. We can't recommend it because we didn’t want to hear loud music and talking until the early hours but if that doesn’t bother you then it’s a good place to stay especially in the summer when you can use the terrace.
