Corso Vittorio Private Stay – Vesuvio View

We were very happy with our stay at Corso Vittorio. The apartment is very spacious, comfortable and in my opinion represents excellent value for money. The views from the balcony are amazing and even better with a glass of wine in the evening! We found host very helpful and polite. The location is not really in a tourist area so you get to see the 'real' Naples! However, 10-15 mins walk gets you to the city centre and the Metro links are great too.

A few more modern plug sockets and kitchen utensils would have been nice.

A spacious apartment. Great location. An excellent option for two couples, as it offers separate, spacious bedrooms and bathrooms. The living room is more suited for relaxing than for additional guests to sleep in, though it would be possible to squeeze in a few extra people if necessary. I highly recommend it for 4 people. I stayed there with 3 people and it was comfortable and private. The apartment’s balcony offers a beautiful view of Mount Vesuvius and the bay. The building is located in a gated, security-guarded area. There are good pizzerias nearby with wood-fired stone ovens. It’s about a 10-minute walk to the Salvator Rosa metro station. It’s worth choosing this station over Toledo because the route is less tiring.

The electrical outlet that powers the iron with its short cord is located above the kitchen countertop, which isn’t ideal when you’re using a mini ironing board to press a dress shirt for a meeting. I missed having extension cords, which give you the freedom to plug in devices like laptops with wider plugs, because working in the kitchen with a laptop isn’t exactly the most comfortable. Be careful with the exterior blinds, as they can get stuck when raised, and then you’ll have sunlight in the bedroom all day :-). Other than that, no complaints.
