It would be perfect if the shower room was a little bigger

It has a large terrace with a great view of the church and the volcano. The staff is very welcoming. The room is very clean. The location is also very good, it only takes ten minutes to walk to Parco Archeologico di Pompei.

The view, near the station and ruins, the owner 😉

Amazing view, perfect location. Owner was lovely and allowed me to check out late with no charge 🙂🙏

The bathroom. The shower was tiny and in the middle of the room with two curtains around it. Impossible to shower without getting everything wet but there's no drain in the floor. Not enough furniture in the room. It was raining a lot when we got there and we couldn't use the outside area so there's no place to sit except for the bed. It was quite noisy outside with tons of honking traffic right below us for most of the day and into the night. Not sure if it was because of a detour or if it's normal.

Amazing view and good location, close to Pompeii entrances and the local train line. Comfortable bed. Great communication and responsiveness. Mini fridge with water. Lovely, large terrace with places to sit and views of Vesuvius. It's a 3rd floor walk up but worth it for the views.

It would’ve been nice to have shampoo, soap and extra towels provided but not a deal breaker at all!

Gianfranco is so accommodating, friendly, and welcoming!! He even carried my suitcase up the stairs when checking us in. This place is INCREDIBLE!! Super centrally located but off of a quiet street that means no loud noises keeping you up. GORGEOUS view from the massive private terrace. I thought it would be a shared terrace from the posting, but it is only for this room which means it’s even better! The room is nicely decorated, very clean & super affordable. We loved it & wish we could’ve stayed longer!

Location was perfect for everything we needed and the rooftop terrace was an added bonus. Maybe a couple of extra pillows would be ideal - but it was no big thing.

Perfect accommodation for our night stay in Pompei, beautiful views of mount Vesuvius from the roof terrace. Gianfranco was a great host and very attentive and helpful host, went the extra mile to help us.

The stairs. Would have been helpful to know that prior to booking. It did make me overcome my fear of open stairs to a degree

Fantastic location great views from the terrace. Lovely to sit out

Fantastic rooftop terrace, all to yourself, with a lovely view. Very friendly and helpful owner. He also does a transfer to Naples Airport which is very handy!

We loved the quirkiness of the place. The location was perfect for us and the rooftop terrace was absolutely beautiful. Oh, and the cuckoo clock! Our hosts also allowed us to drop our luggage in early which was really appreciated. 😁

Bathroom was rather tight.

Absolutely loved the view from the sun terrace. We had views of the church, bell tower and Vesuvius what a treat. Our host was responsive to our requests and informative.

Fantastic location, great view and cosy room. I highly recommend this place !

Don’t expect luxurious accommodations but practical and near everything. Guests must be aware that it’s a few flights of stairs with no elevator and narrow space towards the top. You do end up at the top of the building which is worth it but not so easy if you are loaded with heavy luggage.

Such a good find near the main pedestrian avenues and the Pompei ruins. The views from the balcony are phenomenal. The manager, friendly and resourceful.

Breakfast, 3rd floors of stairs (no lift), the toilet and shower was not so comfortable.

Coziness, terrace

Stayed in December 2023

The shower is a little basic, and hot water is not unlimited at certain times of day, but we found this a minor factor for two people. If you're not very mobile, you might find the 3 flights of stairs tricky, especially the last stage, which is more like fire stairs. We thought it was well worth it since it means you get the roof terrace. Watch out for the train stations! There are several in Pompei. One of them is very close (Pompei Santuario). Google maps somehow seems to let you down all the time and timetables are unreliable. It's a significant walk from the wrong station if it's dark or hot and you have bags. Announcements and signs in/on stations are often unclear or missing. We did manage to navigate them, but planning or a sense of humour is required. I found this on TripAdvisor... 'Pompei' on the FS line is the mainline station, for the modern town, but there are other stations on the 'Circumvesuviana' Line - which is the private railway that travels around Vesuvius from Naples. There is a station on this Circumvesuviana line called 'Pompei Santuario' which is in the part of the modern town near the Basilica of Our Lady of Pompei, a famous Marian Shrine to which many people make pilgrimages. There are two further stations on the Circumvesuviana line for Pompei. As you said, 'Pompei Scavi' (Pompei digs/ruins) which is where the majority of tourists head for as they're doing a day trip to visit the ancient city ruins which are alongside the modern town,not in it. And there's 'Pompei Villa dei Misteri', which is one of the villa ruins out of the centre of town and away from the main ruins.

Fantastic location. Walking distance (15 mins) from the ruins, overlooked by the cathedral on one side and Vesuvius from the other. The roof terrace is yours and displays both fantastically. Room is spacious and bright and well thought out. Gianfranco is incredibly helpful (and multilingual) and even came to rescue us from the wrong train! Breakfast is in a separate pavement cafe a few minutes walk away, but this is another authentic Italian experience. Highly recommended!

A gem of a place

Stayed in October 2023

Lots of stairs to get to property, and no lift so just bear in mind.

The location was perfect, 10 minutes from pompei ans many restaurants and cafes. The rooftop was also a standout! We had been left water, and tea and a free breakfast in a cute local cafe.

Stayed in October 2023

Location was a little noisy with traffic but it died down at a reasonable time.

Lovely terrace, amazing view to wake up to, big bedroom and perfectly located for Pompeii ruins or a visit to the town. Breakfast at the nearby cafe was good and helped us by storing our bags for the day while we visited the ruins.

Only good for able bodied people because of the stairs to get he property.

Roof top terrace, great views . Clean and good decor.

Stayed in September 2023

The balcony is the best thing about this property - amazing views and perfect place to watch the sunset. Only thing to be aware of is the steep stairs up to the room so not ideal for everyone. Gianfranco is great, really helpful with things to do and parking (free parking 2 mins from building). Great location, far enough away from busy ruins but so close to all the great restaurants and bars.

Stayed in August 2023

The location was fantastic- far enough to escape from the busy ruins but close enough to walk in. The view from the private terrace was more than we hoped. The host was extremely knowledgeable and could answer all of our questions; we couldn’t have asked for more.
