Bed was very uncomfortable and fan was extremely noisy but staff were good enough to swap our room.

Right around the corner from the train station, you can't go wrong. I did right down that they had breakfast but they don't, perhaps it is my mistake, not sure. They do have 50 minutes free internet access though.

A great place for Naples. Most staff does not speak much English, but they are friendly and try to be helpful. Very clean and the TV has 40 channels -- though all in Italian. They had to switch my room after the first night, so they gave me a 3 day Pass for the local buses and to visit 2...

I didnt manage to make it to this hostel and instead of charging the first nights fee they charged me 50% of the entire booking. Im not a happy camper!

The hotel was very close to the train station. We had heard that Naples was a paradise for pickpockets and we were clearly in a bad area of the city but we never felt in any danger and did not have anything stolen. The man in the hostel was friendly and it was easy to catch our train to Pompeii...

If you go to Capri SWIM into the Blue Grotti Cave!!! one of the best things we have do on the tripclose

It is a nice place to stay, close to the station and the best pizza places in Naples, but its a rough area of the city.

The hotel was really nice. However, we had problems with the shower because there is a plumbing problem; basically every time we showered, the room flooded. When we told the staff, they first accused us of not knowing how to use a shower! Later they apologized, but still, it was a pain having...

This was the cheapest place we could find near the train station: only 5 minutes by foot. Rooms quite sparse and not huge, but very clean. A good deal for what you pay. Friendly owners, though they don't speak english well enough to give good advice. We were out most of the time, but all in all...

The hotel was very nice here, as well as the staff. The rooms provided ample space and were extremely clean. The only bad part was the location of the hotel. However, the staff seemed to keep the hotel very secure.

Hotel is close to train station in the middle of the ghetto. Pack a pistol in your suitcase and keep your head low, but the place is clean and nice.

Despite the area not being the best part of naples, it is close to the train station which makes it a good location for traveling around the naples area. On a bit of a back street, so i wouldn't advise it for only girls staying somewhere, but i didn't feel endangered.

Rooms have paper thin walls and the outside area is very undesirable. Not recommended for single or groups of women travellers

the owner is one of the nicest people we met on our trip! he went totally out of his way to help us and make phone calls for us, so i have nothing but praise for him. some of the staff care a little bit less about the guests.

Over the road there is a cake shop. It is the best cake shop in the world. Go there if you decide to stay in Crapoli.

Staff was nice and helfpul but location not the greatest however we were mainly there for pompeii anyways. Apparently they rent rooms by the hour to frisky townfolk since the room next to us was occupied by some loud sex and then an hour later they showered and checked out.
