I Racconti di Partenope

Pros: This 4-bedroom B&B is in an excellent location next to bus and subway stops. We booked a Large Double Room, which was clean and large with a comfortable bed, good shower, and it was quiet. The proprietor, Federica, was very helpful and accommodating. Next to the building is the Perfectoo Bar, where you can get cappuccinos and pastries for breakfast as well as food for other meals. Cons: There was no desk in the room even though the room description indicated that a desk would be there. We telephoned Frederica, who gave us permission to move one of the tables and chairs in the breakfast room into our room. The description also mentions that the B&B is accessible by a lift. While true, to reach the lift, you must walk up 5 steps in the inner very unattractive courtyard and 4 more steps to reach the lift. As my wife has difficulty with stairs, this was an issue. Before we arrived, Federica gave us instructions on how to open the main door to the building by entering a code on the adjacent keypad. Unfortunately, after numerous tries, the door failed to open. Eventually, someone opened the door to go out, and we were able to gain entrance. (Note: the pedestrian door is part of the large, main doors of the building, and one must step high over the threshold to go in – similar to a bulkhead door on a submarine.) While the shower was beautiful, the decorative brick wall in the shower has sharp edges. My wife had a large bruise from hitting it. Hooks to hang towels were inside the shower - we had to hang towels on window shutters in the bedroom. The wardrobe’s clothing bar was too high for my wife to reach it. We used the sofa bed to park our suitcases, as the TV was on the wall behind the sofa (and there were no luggage racks). Also, there were no instructions on how to use the TV or how to find English speaking channels. Finally, the old lock on our room door was difficult to use (think old-time skeleton key).
