Naples


This quiet, family-run bargain is ideal for those wanting to crash near Napoli Centrale. The place feels like a family apartment, its four large bedrooms – each with small private bathroom – decked out in modular furniture. The 'Capri' room comes with balcony and impressive views. There's a modern communal kitchen, and a simple breakfast of cornetti (croissants) and coffee.

You'll need €0.10 for the lift on weekdays.
