Mi è piaciuto: Pulizia
Wasn't great for us, but it might be perfect for you!
Let us explain. The listing is accurate; we just weren't paying attention. Research the Pedamentina stairs in Naples before deciding to stay here: the stairs provide lovely city views, but there are over 400 steps, and this property is right in the middle. Apparently some people *run* these stairs, but they aren't ideal for a 60-ish/70ish couple (us). Likewise, the bedloft; the stairs are really more of a ladder, so we opted to sleep on the couch rather than risk death by midnight bathroom break. Condition of the place was mixed: high-quality, spotless linens, plenty of blankets, but the footboard in the loft was broken, lamp and overhead bulbs needed replacing, the large burner on the stove is finicky, some of the dishes had been "washed" but still had visible food on them, and there were no kitchen towels or napkins of any kind. Also no place on the main level to hang clothes. As elsewhere in Italy, you must pack your trash out to the city bins: here, that means carrying it more than 200 steps up or down, your choice. PLUSES include a large bathroom with soaking tub, a large window facing roughly east (so, morning sun -- but shutters if you don't want that), beautiful citrus garden outside the window with Vesuvius in the background, and a clean, efficient clothes washer. Also, someone left a pot of basil on the kitchen windowsill, a thoughful gesture.
