B&B Maestra Giovanna0

We were warmly welcomed by the family when we arrived. A secure parliament nf Spot in the basement was offered to us. The rooms were shown to us, our luggage carried to room, home made fruit crumble and freshly made coffees offered too. The hospitality shown to us far exceeded my expectations, it was like visiting my Great Aunt back home. I wish I had more time to stay here. Rooms modern, spacious,very clean. Excellent location too for exploring Pompeii and just a short walk to train station to venture further. I'd definitely come back to this apartment.

Giovanna is a little peach. Her English is limited as is our Italian (basically none existent lol). She will communicate with you via a translation app on her phone. Giovanna's apartments were clean, comfortable and quiet, big tick. You have the use of a fridge which is a godsend for drinks etc. There is a communal kitchen area to make hot drinks. There is no breakfast however Giovanni provides tokens to take to Mazzini Coffee shop/bar where you can get a coffee and croissant free of charge. We purchased fresh squeezed orange juice to complete our breakfast. Mazzinis is a pleasant coffee shop/bar and the staff were very friendly. It is easy to reach when you know the directions!! As you come out of the main door of the apartment block on to the street you turn left. Walk past the barrier to the end of the street and turn right then take a left. You will come to a turnstile which brings you on to a main road. Turn left and Mazzinis is approx 50m on your right. Pompeii train station is approx 10 mins walk and Pompeii Scavi Villa Die Misteri train station approx 30 mins walk. We fully enjoyed our stay in Pompeii and would definitely recommend Meastro Giovanna xxx

Would love to go back soon Thanks Giovanna xx

Friendly reception of a great hostess Clean and good accommodation Super location

this apartment was a great choice. our priorities were (1) clean, (2) quiet, and, if possible, (3) centrally located, and we booked it for one night ahead of our visit to pompei. it fulfilled all three expectations: it had been recently renovated and was immaculate, located in a dead end, and thus enabling us to sleep with the windows open, and was just minutes away from the main square. the owner, giovanna, met us there punctually. she was very kind and welcoming, with a ton of personality. especially appealing was how much pride she took in the place, which she obviously is highly personally invested it. we didn't cook during our stay, but we did make tea and espresso. the kitchen is well appointed, and giovanna even stocked it with a dozen spices (not typical, in our experience). a couple of things you might consider drawbacks: the kitchen is an inner room, i.e., does not have any windows, and there is no access to the balcony from the middle room, which was the room we were in. you can still open the window and hang things out to dry, but you can't go out onto the balcony. we did not mind either of these things. the place smells nice, is swiss-research-lab-level clean, and very quiet. and the bathroom had been completely renovated recently, tastefully, and at great expense it looked like. you'll have a good stay. the breakfast was not at the apartment, but rather at a café a few minutes away on foot. it was rather on the light side (a croissant and a beverage), so you'll definitely want to plan to have lunch, but it was a very pleasant experience we're glad we had: the café was patronized by locals only it looked like, the owner was very welcoming, and we probably would have just stuck to the touristy areas and missed the local color it provided, if it hadn't been part of the deal. all in all, we were very pleased with our choice.

Maestra Giovanna B&B is everything you need for a trip in the Napoli region. The biggest advantage is its location: the Pompei train station is at a 3 minute walk from the appartament and the Circumvesuviana station at 5 minutes away. Also, if it doesn't bother you to walk, the other station, Pompei Villa dei Misteri, is at a 30 minute walk, but it is nice to get around there, as you walk along the ruins of the Pompei. About that, the ruins are at 10 minutes away from the B&B, also the EAV station that gets to the top of the Vesuvio. Shortly, you are just in the center of the city. Many restaurants near, some of them the best of Pompei (you should try Casa Gallo, it's on the Michelin list and it's 3 minutes away). Oh, and a bonus - Zio Savino Qualità (*winks* go and try, we'll talk later; i suggest you the take away and eat on the terrace for the italian "dolce vita"). The rooms are spatious, veryvery clean, and, as I said, that typical italian terrace is a plus. Maestra Giovanna is soooo nice, she helps you with everything that you need, I'm glad that I met her. All in all, I strongly recommand to stay here if you want to visit the region. The town is much quiter than Napoli, you have public transport to everywhere you need and the Maestra Giovanna's b&b is "perfetto".

There is nothing to complain about this.

Amazing stay at Giovanna’s B and B! Great, safe, quiet location just off the Main Street. The rooms and baths were just renovated and spotlessly clean and the building itself was very nice. Giovanna was maybe the best part — a wonderful, friendly host with great suggestions for restaurants and cafes / dessert. We would definitely stay here again!! Great value.

Everything was perfect.

Everything was above and beyond our expectations! Staying here was the real Italian dream. We had the chance to experience what's it like to have the sweetest and most tender Italian grandma for a week!!!

The lady was so nice that I felt sad that we had to leave.

A few minutes walk from Pompei train station. Ten minutes walk from Pompei archeological site main entrance. Modern and clean accomodation. The host is friendly, communicative and helpful.

The breakfast is provided by a nearby bar. Just a coffee and a croissant. Neighbours have dogs and dogs bark ...

The room was very comfy and clean. Giovanna is amazing! She is very helpfull and she gave us great advice on where to go in the city of Pompei. I would recommend for everyone who would like to stay in a cozy B&B just a street away from the city centre of Pompei.

Fabulous hostess! She met us at the door and showed us around, gave us information for our day and was really helpful. The room is extremely clean, great new bathroom, comfy beds and a wonderful balcony looking down the street. It is in a lovely part of Pompei. I would recommend you stay at this place.
