Hotel berhampiran Scale Massimo Troisi, Naples

The hotel is small, run by some very friendly and helpful guys. Our room was big enough, very basic with a small TV, desk, tiny balcony and shower room. If we were just talking about the room and hotel itself, I would highly recommend it for the price. The location is great for the train stations. Apart from that the neighborhood is not great. There were *********** stood on the street outside our window and there were human faeces in the street. This isn't the fault of the hotel, but I feel that I should tell people as for some this may ruin their trip.

Decidimos fijar nuestro punto central en Nápoles cerca de la estación central de ferrocarriles. Facilita la dia y vuelta al aeropuerto y enlaces con tren a las zonas próximas como Pompeya y Sorrento. Fue un acierto. En esa zona encontramos Garbaldi Rooms, en una esquina de la plaza Garibaldi. El establecimiento consta de unas habitaciones bien equipadas y estilo actual, aunque situado en un edificio antiguo ( como la mayoria en Nápoles). Aire condicionado muy correcto (importante) y habitación bien insonorizada. Cortina eléctrica para evitar la entrada de luz por la mañana. Personal muy atento. El desayuno se da en un local situado en otra escalera del mismo edificio. No hay problema. El desayuno es simple pero correcto y en café muy bueno.

My wife and I decided to stay at the The Five Rooms for three reasons. First, we wanted to be at a place that was local rather than one that was part of a larger hotel chain. Second, it was located next to Garibaldi Station, which is where we easily could get a train to Pompeii or the subway. Finally, it got excellent reviews on TripAdvisor. Unfortunately, our stay was not as enjoyable as it was for others. Let me start with finding the place, which was a challenge for us as it was for others who have reviewed this place. I had mapped out directions to the hotel, and Alfredo - one of the hosts - sent me a map as well. If you are heading from Garibaldi station, go past (or through) the Piazza Garibaldi; you will see, just past the end of the Piazza, a building with two large gray doors. On the side of those doors, you will see a sign for The Five Rooms. On the right side will be an electric numerical panel. I believe the number one presses for The Five Rooms is 10. Press those numbers, and you will be let in. Next, there is the elevator. Be aware that it is tiny. My wife and I, as well as our two suitcases, barely fit into it. I read that you will need 10 cents (Euros) to use the elevator. That is true if the time is between (I believe) 8 am and 7 pm. After 7 pm, it is free. Take the elevator to the fourth floor, and that is where you will find the hotel. Alfredo helped my wife and me get to the hotel via WhatsApp and met us upon our arrival. The room itself was nice, with a king-sized bed and a huge bathroom, including a very large shower. As I read in other reviews, the breakfast is nice, but not substantial. There are fruits, breads, yogurts, cereals, and juices. If you want milk, you will need to ask for it. You can also ask for coffee, cappuccino, or tea. As others have written, the area where the hotel is located is sketchy. From what I read, Naples has received an unfair reputation for being unsafe. I can't say if that reputation is true or not, but as my wife and I headed through the square next to the hotel to one of the nearby restaurants, we were extra vigilant. My biggest complaint has to do with the service. I agree with those who commented that oftentimes - especially after the morning - no one is at the front desk. But my complaints go beyond that. Upon our arrival, Alfredo showed us the room, and my wife immediately noticed one of the lights in the bathroom was flickering. She brought it to his attention, and he said he would have it fixed within a day or two. (It was not fixed.) More disconcerting, however, was what happened after our first night. My wife wanted to have an extra blanket for the room, as she had been cold (despite me changing the temperature in the room). I looked in the closet, and all that was there was a mattress cover. When we arrived, Alfredo said that if my wife and I needed anything, feel free to contact him. So after spending the day in Naples, I sent Alfredo a WhatsApp message at 6:30 pm askin

I really liked the Piazza Garibaldi location. I got off the train from Rome at night and was able to walk to this hotel in under 5 minutes. Woke up in the morning, got a coffee and a croissant from Via G Pica a block over, then spent my day walking down Via dei Tribunali. It's about a mile down that road to get to Museo Archeologico Nazionale, but along the way checked out Pio Monte della Misericordia (with its famous Caravaggio masterpiece Le sette opere di Misericordia), the Duomo, Cappella Sansevero, and took one of the archeological tours. Then came back and had dinner at one of the many lively restaurants that line the street along the Piazza. You won't find this place in any tour book, but the accommodations were a good value for the price and a nice strong air conditioner kept me pretty comfortable during the hot summer nights.

The bed is super comfortable, the breakfast is great and it's nice having a little balcony. Trip.com says the room has a kettle but it doesn't. In the winter it would be nice to have a kettle as well as slippers to walk on the cold marble floor, especially since I can't control the heat as it's controlled by the front desk. The front desk staff are very helpful with ordering taxis with flat rates so you won't get cheated.

The location of the hotel is just next to the railway station and is convenient. The hotel room is fine in general, except that the air-conditioning system is not working well since only warm air is available but not cool air.

The bar to have drinks in the evening is filthy, dirty table linens that are not linens, had marks that has been used and spilt drinks or food. The chairs and table feels and looks dirty, we took our drinks in our room instead. The breakfast has no cooked food just hard boiled eggs, bread are hard, people have to queue to wait to be served by 1 waiter, you cannot take from the table, waiter has to serve even coffee. It’s scary around the hotel, police are always there, dodgy shops around. Stay nearby or at hotels around Ovo Castle. It’s too dirty aroung Gibraldi station where this hotel is located.

L'hotel , in cui abbiamo alloggiato per quattro notti è classificato come 4 stelle , è pulito , nuovo , ha una bella posizione in collina sul mare , reception gentile e disponibile ma .... è come se non fosse ancora finito : le camere sono spaziose , il bagno anche , ma non c'è un arredo . niente armadio su cui poter disporre le maglie , non cè un mobile su cui appoggiare le valigie , solo degli attaccapanni a vista in una nicchia del muro !! ho dovuto usare una specie di comodino trasparente come unica soluzione per il trolley ( l'alternativa era il pavimento ) e cosi non avevo più un appoggio per il telefono , gli occhiali ecc nell'ascensore ci sono ancora tracce della plastica che riveste le porte scorrevoli nel bagno non c'è niente per appoggiare gli asciugamani , se non dei ganci nel box doccia , per altro molto grande L'impianto di riscaldamento /condizionatore non funzionava e abbiamo atteso inutilmente il manutentore ( capisco il periodo di vacanza ) e si è optati per una stufa portatile , in vero un ottimo Dyson . In compenso ottima e ben fornita la prima colazione !!! Insomma l'hotel a mio avviso ha delle grandissime potenzialità ancora non del tutto espresse

We have visited this hotel before, a few years ago, a lot has changed, it has been extended and has an extra pool to the rear, meaning there were two to choose from, both the pools were beautiful, we preferred the back pool as you didn't get the road noise, and sadly for two days this was not available to us as there was a private party one day and the next day was having a treatment of some sort, not terrible as we had use of the pool at the front, the staff are very friendly, parking was easy, the bar was relaxing, the room was comfortable, complete with very nice shampoo and gels etc, the mini bar was included and offered Coke, water and a couple of soft drinks, breakfast was nice, would have liked a toaster for the bread. A recommendation, the petrol station across the way has a great bar/coffee area, with lovely local snacks. Essenza Del Gusto restaurant a couple of minutes walk turning left out of the hotel is really excellent! Highly recommended if you are in the area.
