Guest Reviews
- Baughman (8/5): - The lady was very kind! Also we have stayed in a lot of these apartment style places with multiple rooms and this is the only time we’ve had our own bathroom with two other couples also staying there, so that was nice! Great air conditioning unit as well. A little noisy just because there are multiple groups of people staying in the same apartment

- Willian (2/5): -
- Glooper4 (9/5): - In a nation of warm welcomes, this was the warmest welcome I have received. Maria and Pasquale are truly delightful. The accommodation is as advertised and expected - very good value for the price, easy to find and check into, and conveniently positioned in central Naples. Breakfast was coffee, delicious croissant, and lively conversation with my hosts. Warmly recommended.
- Eva (6/5): - Läget jättebra, nära till gamla staden och centralstation.
Frukost som det stod stor, var inte i vår smak, croissant med kaffe, frukost för oss är:, typ ägg och bacon m. m
- Carmine (2/5): - Très très sales les toilettes dégueulasse les douche très très dégueulasse
- Turid (7/5): - I liked that it was central and easy to access and the host was very nice. The walls were very thin so we could here everything that happend in the room next to ours.
- Viktor Gábor (10/5): - The owner is very friendly.
- Maria (9/5): - L'accoglienza di MariaPia è stata ottimale, ci ha accolto con un buonissimo caffè consigliato dove andare a pranzo e come girare la città dandoci una cartina dettagliata Nulla
- Isabel (10/5): - owner was very accessible. nice room. nice balcony. had a kitchen. shower water was very hard to control. coffee and croissant given by owner un the mornings
- Noella (10/5): - L'hôte était vraiment adorable, serviable et au petit soin pour nous.
Je recommande pour l'accueil, le prix et l'emplacement.
J'espère y revenir !!
- Ramona (10/5): - Enkelt boende nära viktiga sevärdheter. Jättegullig och trevlig värdinna! Otroligt hjälpsam och rar!
Är man petig med att allt måste vara hög standard och nyaste av allt ska man välja annat boende.
Lite slitet och eftersatt men oss spelade det absolut ingen roll! Ägarinnan är fantastiskt rar! Läget fenomenalt!
Jag kan absolut rekommendera detta boende!
- Joseph (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lila (10/5): - Mariapia ensured we had a lovely experience, she was a highlight of the trip! The rooms and bathrooms were very clean, and we had access to a nice kitchen area. The B&B is in a great neighborhood, super walkable and nearby to many delicious restaurants. I would absolutely return!
- Christian (10/5): Mi sono sentito come a casa - Situato in posizione strategica a 10 min a piedi dalla stazione e vicinissimo alle vie centrali.
La posizione permette di girare Napoli tranquillamente a piedi senza usare i mezzi (che comunque sono molto vicini)
Camere con bagno privato anche se esterno alla camera.
La proprietaria gentilissima sempre disponibile per ogni problema fornendo anche ottime informazioni su cosa vedere, dove mangiare e come arrivarci.
Colazione ottima con caffè direttamente dalla moka e cornetto di pasticceria.
Se ne avrò la possibilità ci ritornerò molto volentieri
- Marco (10/5): - La signora molto gentile, ambiente pulito. Vicino alla stazione.
- Marit (6/5): - Maria is een super host. Zij helpt je en is zeer vriendelijk . De bed and breakfast ligt zeer centraal en dichtbij de grote stations.
Het ontbijt was goed. Het keukentje is klein en als is oud.
- Inna (10/5): - Great hotel
- Panitra (8/5): - Lovely staff and very clean. Comfortable.
- Miguel (10/5): - Good place, nice and comfortable. Excellent attention of the sfaff!
- Peter (10/5): - Smashing B&B close to city center. Our host Maria was very friendly and helpful. Gave us some super recommendations for food etc.
Feels like you're staying with family. Lovely.
- Stephen (10/5): - Mariapia is the perfect host. Accomodating, friendly, helpful, who made a decent B&B a really great stay including reasonably priced transfers to the airport in her own car.
- sacha (10/5): - .
- Máté (7/5): A nice little place, well located and equipped. For a few nights, it's satisfactory. - The place was just like as it was expected. Clean, A/C, free WiFi, towels, toiletries, cutlery and everything available. Located in a good place, most of the sights can be easily reached on foot. The host was very nice/friendly and flexible. Located in a good place, but can meet some strange faces on the streets. Had some problems with the bathroom: there were no hot water in the shower, and our toilet wasn't working properly, so had to do some manual work with the water tank every time. However, we didn't mention this to the host, she probably could have solved these issues...
- Sergio (10/5): - Collocazione ottimale, camera più che dignitosa, struttura semplice, ma completa e confortevole, gestione puntuale, corretta e molto cordiale
- Laci (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent hospotality
- Max (10/5): Exceptional -
- Giulio (10/5): - struttura comoda ed elasticità di irari
- Ameera (2/5): Very poor - It was close to the center and the lady who works there was nice First of all the place smelled very bad and it was so messy. The sheets weren't clean so we asked the lady to change them (they were full of hair and yellow spots). The room was literally full of mosquitoes, we killed almost 20 to be able to sleep peacefully. The entire floor was full of mosquitoes.
The place in general is not clean at all and the cups were also dirty with a lot of spots.
Also, the lady said that there's a breakfast included but it was literally just one old croissant with cappuccino
The overall experience was not pleasant at all and we couldn't wait to leave.
- Kat (7/5): Cheap and cheerful for short stay - Location is excellent minutes away from train station and within old town. Host is the kindest person and doing his best for the guests. Although acceptable for the price we paid, place seemed a bit tired and cluttered . Bathroom was down the corridor which was ok for two nights but not for a longer stay.
Our room was located directly above a night club and whilst windows kept outside noise at bay, there would be a lot of noise from within the building.
As much as I understand smoking is perceived differently in different cultures place was saturated with smell of cigarettes and it was very unpleasant for me an my son as non smokers.
- Georgios (9/5): Superb -
- Egidio (4/5): - Purtroppo non abbiamo avuto acqua calda e letto particolarmente piccolo e scomodo
- Azeem (7/5): Good -
- Bhavya (1/5): Horrible, pathetic - Nothing It was too messy to host guests
- Lucie (4/5): Not private bathroom - The host is very nice, the room is air-conditioned, the place is near the train station, and the towels are provided The bathroom is supposed to be private, but we had to share it with another room for the duration of our stay. The place is localized above a nightclub, so extremely noisy at weekends. breakfast is served late, so we couldn't have it if we wanted to get up early enough to visit the area
- Minseo (9/5): nice value - nice staff and enough facilities the shower water was cold, in almost every time
- Kristina (7/5): Good - Very nicw staff! Helpful with everything. The room fulfilled its purpose and the location is great if you aim to be in the central parts of town. It felt a bit worn out and the air and sounds from the street were not the greatest. But we did not expect anything else, so we were happy. Also we got another accommodation than the one designated to us in the beginning, but there were no problems and the location was perhaps even better for our needs. In the new location there were some steep stairs, not so desirable in our situation with bags and a pregnant woman, but that was not a big problem.
- Monspid (8/5): Very good - - delicious breakfast
- owners are very friendly and helpful
- room was quite big
- AC
- quiet inside if you keep the windows closed (there is a night club nearby)
- close to the main train station and metro line - bed is a bit too short
- it was hard to set the proper temperature in the shower (we were said that it's gonna be fixed this week so it shouldn't be a problem anymore
- Linda (2/5): The worst and most horrible experience ever - We had a three-night reservation at the Astra. I informed them two days before our arrival the time we would arrive. I got a reply to the message that someone is waiting for us.
When we arrived as scheduled on Friday evening, they told they were overbooked. The owner offered us accommodation three kilometers from the center. I told them I wouldn't accept this, but they had no other choice. I didn´t accept it and because of that we had to find a new hotel for ourselves on Friday night at 10pm.
On Saturday we were able to check in to Astra. We were supposed to have a room that can fit three people, but the room was still a small room for two people. However, the worst thing was the accommodation was extremely poor. The toilet was supposed to be only our private use, but I noticed someone else use it too. Also, the bathroom was dirty and toilet seat was broken.
There were birds in a cage in the kitchen and there was no mention of this anywhere when I made the reservation. And I´m allergic to birds. The bar downstairs played music all night long. For these reasons we had to check out on Sunday and look for a new accommodation for one more night.
I have made a complaint, but Astra refuses to refund us anything.
- Gabriel (6/5): - I liked the location , in historical part of the city we walked everywhere everything was accessible,
What I found was not great is that the rooms very tiny and some old junk in the anyway narrow hallway.
There are only 4 rooms and 3 showers on the other side of the apartment , the water heating system is weird, its either you shower in cold water or there is super hot burning water comes out , could figure out what's going on
The host Maria was nice and helpful however the other host made us feel very unwelcome , my children named him simply "The angry guy" . I think because we were making tea at the kitchen I wasn't aware that we not suppose to use it . he came to us seem very angry and asked how long we going to use it for..
If one runs B&B he should be more welcoming not looking angry. could be he had bad day or maybe just improve his communication skills I don't know, but I know that I would not recommend this place to stay .
- Matteo (2/5): - Sono arrivato presso la struttura e la responsabile mi ha trasferito presso un altro “hotel”, Rifugio del conte, per motivi non ben definiti, che si trovava in una palazzina abitata. Qui ho trovato un personale molto cordiale e disponibile. La stanza, molto piccola ma sufficiente per una persona, era dotata di un bagno privato in cui vi era soltanto mezzo rotolo di carta igienica, quindi usata, solo due tovaglie rigorosamente sporche, era assente il phon, ma soprattutto il bagno non era dotato di un bidet, sostituito da un doccino. La doccia era visibilmente sporca a terra e si tappava subito dopo nemmeno 3 minuti. Mancava anche un tappetino in bagno. Da dentro la stanza si sentiva ogni minimo rumore o il rumore dell’acqua scorrere. Zero stelle
- Arinola (3/5): Poor -
- Fabrizio (6/5): Pleasant - Breakfast offered by the staff
Location excellent, near the city centre and the central station
Staff very kind
Cleanliness of the room and bathroom bathroom external and not comfortable
bed cleanliness
- filippo (10/5): - ok
- Claudia (8/5): Great hosts, great location! - Amazing hosts!
- Verified traveler (10/5): Muy buena experiencia. Recomendable al 100% - Ambiente familiar y cordial. Buena localizacion, habitacion cómoda, sin ruidos y todo muy limpio.
Ademas el desayuno es muy completo y los dueños son muy serviciales y detallistas.
Muy buena relación calidad-precio.
- Bruno (6/5): - Bruyant. Juste au dessus d un club. Espace encombré
- Rokas (8/5): Very good - Great location - walking distance from the station, well connected with local transport and you can easily reach most of the spots in the old town by walk. Friendly hospitable and helpful owner.
External private bathroom means that you will have a bathroom only for your own use but it’s outside of room down the corridor. The shower temperature a little bit difficult to control but it is possible to work with it
- Thomas (10/5): Lovely stay in a bustling city - Very lovely host and welcoming to our needs. Great tips for local facilities including dinner and days out N/A
- Jana (8/5): Nice stay for good value of money. - Very nice location, close to the central station, and there were cute cafes around and the promenade was also near. The host was very kind and gave good suggestions and accommodated our wishes. Cleaning was done daily. The beds could have been better. There were 2 mattresses put together and they were shifting all the time. Also, beware that breakfast is an Italian pastry, not a regular European breakfast.
- Johannes (7/5): Good -
- Chantal (6/5): - Séjour bien passer
Pour la somme demandée la chambre était à peu près correct
Location quand même très vétuste surtout au niveau électricité
Et j’ai regretter de n’avoir jamais vue la loueuse
Sa sœur qui s’est occupée de nous était très gentille
- Tim (8/5): - Mooi pand, leuke knusse kamer, erg lieve gastvrouw, verder ook prima voorzieningen die je nodig hebt voor je verblijf. Er waren wel wat mankementen, zoals het raam dat niet dicht ging, maar met elke dag meer dan 20 graden en de hele dag iemand aanwezig die de boel in de gaten houdt hoeft dat geen probleem te zijn.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Maria was brilliant. The property was rather tucked away but once we got our bearings we were OK. The property needed some renovation work but Maria was a little star.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - We had booked (through hotels.com) a "unit with one double bed and one single" but on arrival were shown to a room with one double. Fortunately the lady was accommodating and took us to another hotel with two single beds. This caused slight inconvenience and embarassment for us.
- JUNICHI (2/5): - No Reception person is problems.
So,Many tourists is waiting much time.
If you don’t call owner(no sim or no tel number),you can’t stay this hotel, because no reception person,only tourists
- Verified traveler (10/5): - L'accueil et la disponibilte du personnel, les bons conseils pour les visites de Naples.J'ai aime l emplacement de l hotel,tout à proximité, commerces restaurants,transports.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Sembra di essere a casa.
Mariapia, la proprietaria, è gentilissima e ti fa sentire subito a tuo agio!
Super consigliato!
- Verified traveler (6/5): Just Ok - Ok. 3/4 days I was there I didn’t get breakfast. Breakfast doesn’t start until about 8:30 which is late if you’re an early riser and are doing day trips. Bathroom was clean, but had a moldy smell and the hot water went out quickly. Doors are very loud and room I was in I could hear everything with the person next to me. Mariapia was very nice and welcoming and had tons of suggestions for trips which was very nice. Overpriced for what you receive.
- Marco (8/5): - Hotel piccolo ma pulito i bagni sono fuori dalla camera ma di pertinenza della camera stessa. Personale molto accogliente . Da non perdere il caffè di Maria Pia.
- Verified traveler (6/5): Redelijk bed & breakfast met vriendelijk personeel - Vriendelijk familie bed & breakfast. Ontbijt is teleurstellend. Vriendelijk en hulpvaardig personeel. Gunstige ligging ten opzichte van stad en station.
- Christine (4/5): - L'adresse ne correspond pas au lieu de l'hôtel
Le confort est très sommaire
Le petit déjeuner décevant
- Taehun (10/5): Was awesome - They really want im happy so tried so much for me
- Verified traveler (10/5): Una bella Vacanza - Arrivato a napoli la proprietaria mi ha chiamato per trasferirmi in una struttura più grande, b&b Luna, molto valido e confortevole. Le stanze della stuttura sono molto grandi e accoglienti, la proprietaria Livia è molto simpatica, disponibile e poco invadente. sono molto soddisfatto del soggiorno.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Vicinissimo al centro storico - La proprietaria è super disponibile e simpaticissima e la stanza è a due passi dal centro storico...si vive Napoli che è bellissima.
- Nath (10/5): Petit hôtel très bien situé - Hotel bien situé. Les propriétaires sont charmants et de très bon conseil .
- kanan (10/5): ホテルの方が優しい - 滞在中行きたい場所がわからなかった時に、スタッフの方が、わざわざ目的地に電話してまで手伝ってくれました。とっても気さくな方々でサービスがよかったです。
- Pietro (6/5): Prezzo competitivo, migliorabile nel complesso - Dirottato su altra struttura nelle vicinanze, simpatia delle ospiti, colazione sufficiente, struttura pulita, un po' rumorosa.
- Khurram (2/5): Bad experience - The lady was not there at the B&B. It was hard to find. The lady took us to another hotel. which was 8 minutes walk from there. Bad area. Unsafe. Smelly. No Air-conditioning. A total mess.
- James (4/5): Nothing good.. - I have nothing good to say about this place except for the people who work there..
- amanda (8/5): fabulous location and host - loved this quirky little b n b...Maria really helpful and knowledgeable in the centre of everything loved it
- Laurence (8/5): ood value B&B - The Bed and Breakfast owner was helpful and friendly and the room was a good size and reasonably equipped. Although the B&B was centrally situated it was in quite a seedy area which reminded me of Soho , London in the 80s. Overall it's good value. The owner has two properties. The one I stayed in was in Piazza Garibaldi, I cannot comment on the other.
- Verified traveler (4/5): room not ready - room not ready at 2.00 pm had to leave bag so forgot guide books etc.
- M.M. (4/5): Good location, in the heart of Garibaldi piazza - My experience was not a good one, when I arrived to the hotel, they told me that I will be staying in the other building which is 15 minutes walking with my heavy luggage, I arrived to the hotel & the location was good, the owner is very nice & friendly. However the other guests make bug noise while talking, the lift was against charge of 0.10 Euro & I booked on BB however I didn't have breakfast coz I didn't know where& when it's served. When the internet was down no-one in the hotel was there to help. The hotel was empty if the staff the whole day.
My room was big & clean however it was overlooking the main street so i could hear all the noise from the street & the vibration from the tram.
- S (8/5): Nice hotel for a limited budget - Pros
The double room I got was spacious and with a decent private toilet.
Towels, pillows, and bedsheets were changed regularly and the room was fixed whenever headed out.
The room had a desktop fan which sufficed as the sun never shines into the toom to make it hot or stuffy so it was cool throughout the day.
The staff were very pleasant and helpful and the b&b had a nice terrace with tropical birds. It overlooked a chaotic but lively scene.
Toiletries were always available and there's a usable kitchen witha fridge to keep you food or beverages chilled in the hot weather.
A good wifi service unlike some B&Bs and hotels I've tried before.
Most importantly, the location is in the heart of the city (the old city) and it's very close to shops, stations, and the famous di Michele pizzeria.
Cons
The TV was small.
The window is tiny... if you care about the view beyond the pane.
The breakfast served is basic.
There was some construction work on the floor above one morning, which was irritating especially the drilling noise.
Nonetheless it was a pleasant experience and sig, Maria is a pleasant person to talk to. I'd go back there and I would also recommend it for budget travellers as some other places I've tried before were some very regrettable experiences.
Buon voyage
- denise (8/5): Nice stay in central location - Nice stay in clean, spacious room. Mariapia was a delightful host and made us breakfast each morning. The shared bathroom situation was confusing. Location was convenient to the train station but not in a particularly nice part of town.
- David (10/5): Charming small B&B - A lovely small B&B run out of a first floor flat. Air conditioned rooms are a great comfort in Naples, too. About ten minutes walk from the central station. Clean and simple, with a friendly and helpful owner and her sister.
- Sam (8/5): Great for the price and location! - This was our first time to Italy. We had no idea what to expect so we asked to have someone pick us up at the airport. Everything was confirmed and the person picking us up would be holding a sign that said "Astra." The person never showed up, so we got a taxi cab which was very easy. The doors to hotel were locked at 7:30am so we came back around 9am. The woman did not remember we had a room for the night for the first minute or so but then finally remembered and was very accommodating to our early arrival. Our room was small and clean with a beautiful window. The bathrooms are not in the room, but down the hall. They are also maybe only semi-private. Breakfast was great and came with delicious homemade jam! I would definitely recommend this place for a cheap stay in Naples
- Marija (10/5): Best accommodation for this price. - I have been in B&B Astra 7 days..it is safe place with kind and good workers. I like capuccino from Astra so much. Thanks for all!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Great atmosphere and very friendly people - It was such a great atmosphere and the people were so friendly that I extended my stay. I would always come back another time!
- Ajka (6/5): Close to centrum, clean, big rooms - New part of hotel is by Gieronimo Piazza - Very good place for traveling
- Albert (8/5): Lovely owner - I chatted a lot with the B&B host lady during breakfast and enjoyed it. I would love to stay at her place in my next visit.
- Al (4/5): Not so great. - B&B manager was great. Facility lacked a lot. Kitchen small and crowded, could accommodate four people on bar stools at a counter. Breakfast time variable when guests and manager were up. Four restrooms down the hall assigned, but other guests were using ours. Facility is on second floor, elevator never worked during our stay.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - We were extremely disappointed with the accommodations. However, the owners offered to find us a place that met our expectations, and in a much better neighborhood, for the same price.
