Gut: Sauberkeit und Check-in
This unit raises mixed feelings
Different reviewers have distinct emphases about a specific home. We appreciate the nice features other reviewers mentioned, but this is not a cheap rental, and should be rated accordingly. Unit is clean, large and comfortable, but it is for four people and has only a two seat sofa. Bathroom is huge, but has no adequate venting so even a quick bath leaves the floor completely wet. Kitchen apps are of good quality, but you will really have a hard time trying to cook because there is only one pot with no lid and one frying pan. After we arrived, at our request, the host did bring some wine glasses and a missing table knife. On the nice side, hosts provided water, beer, coffee capsules, some pastry, shampoo and soap. Location is a short walk from Napoli Centrale station. Neighborhood is unkempt and ugly, yet does not feel unsafe.
Now, some really annoying issues. If you turn on more than two appliances simultaneously, the power goes off. Hosts do not warn you about this so when it happens you are left in the dark having to phone them; they don't speak anything but Italian, so it's a bit stressful to finally convince them to come to the unit and fix it. Another downer is being charged a fee per person per night, in cash. The fee is legit, we checked it, the City of Napoli charges it. But so does Rome and Firenze - and the hosts there did not charge us. And this fee is not mentioned in the property listing . All in the balance, we rate this stay as average.
