Mascalzone Latino, Naples

The room was like new and spotless! We were treated like old friends and the location was a close walk to the waterfront and sites. Bus and trains were also near and we will absolutely stay again the next time we're in Naples.

The place is in the historic part of the city with very narrow streets and many old buildings. If you need to take a taxi make sure the driver is ready to take you there. The "hotel" consists of a few rooms on the second floor of an old building. I ended up with a room facing the elevator shaft and the neighbor's living room but I believe there are other rooms that offer more of a view to the front. If you just need a room to stay that is inexpensive then this place is for you, just don't expect a fancy hotel.

Good Points - Great Location, central to Old Town Bad Points - Very overpriced at £80.00 per night - There are 3 rooms in total and the room we were allocated had no natural daylight and was quite small with one bedside table as no room for two and a bedside lamp which gave out absolutely no light what so ever, so you have to have the main big light on. We like to have a couple of hours rest in the afternoons when touring and had to have the lights on in order to read. Felt very claustrophobic. Check in was interesting, we were told that we would be met at 18:00, come 18:20 we call her and are told that her husband is stuck in traffic and wont get there so check in was by whats app, we were then asked to send pictures of our passports which we were not comfortable with. Overall not a very good experience.
