    Nothing to dislike.

    Enzo was a great host, very friendly and he made sure we had a comfortable stay. Gave us local tips on public transportation, pompei, places to dine, including a helpful map. The location of the apartment is very convenient and perfect for day trips, a few minutes walk from the train station that takes you to Sorrento or Naples. The ferry to Capri is just a few steps from the apartment. There are lots of good restaurants in the area. The apartment is very spacious and comfortable. The breakfast every morning as well as the daily housekeeping is great perk. The apartment overlooks the sea which gives a nice view every morning when you wake up. Would book again if staying in the area.

    The water heater ran out quickly and the temperature was a bit low at first, but Enzo adjusted it when we asked. Our room didn’t get much natural light, so it felt a bit dark and cold, though the air conditioner helped. Also, there was no option to leave our luggage after check out.

    Everything was super clean and well organized. The kitchen had all we needed and the breakfast was lovely, especially the fresh fruits. Every little detail was thoughtfully taken care of. All essentials like toilet paper were always refilled before running out. Enzo was very helpful, always available, and really cared about making our stay enjoyable.

    Honestly, we were just a short walk from the railway station. We were across the street from the boardwalk along the sea. We could see Mount Vesuvius from the boardwalk. There were all kinds of restaurants, gelato places… And children’s playgrounds nearby. It was great to walk along the sea, and see all the yachts in the harbour across the street.h

    We were very grateful for the breakfast provided . There was fruit/ milk / orange juice / croissants/ Toast, jam, honey/ And lovely little cakes. We were provided with tea and coffee and yoghurt that we could mix with our fruit. Enzo met us when we arrived and carried our luggage up the one flight of stairs for us. He gave us some suggestions for where to eat and where to go… I felt he was always available should we need help. They had all kinds of reading material that described highlights along the Amalfi coast. The apartment was very large more spacious than we had experienced so far. There was a small view from the window of the sea. We could open the windows for fresh air or we could turn on the air conditioners, whichever we preferred. It truly was an amazing place to stay And the price was less than what I would expect to pay for an apartment such as this.

    Enzo is an exceptional host. He is kind and generous and full of helpful advice for what to do and see in the area. Communication was excellent. The apartment was well equipped, and we enjoyed the fruit, yoghurt, pastries and coffee each morning. Good location to nearby ferry and train station.

    The kitchen was a bit small, actually it's good for travelers who wanna eat out. Enzo would give a few good shops to try. We've tried the pizza, so goood🤌

    We loved this cozy apartment a lot, and the owner was so kind, warm and full of patience. He spent time telling us about the good place to visit, the train connected to different places, and the most important info. is the cruise route to Capri, which showed us how perfect this location was for our travel plan. And he prepared plenty of bread for us, that made all of us felt welcome. We also were impressed by the decorations of the stairs, which can even become a photo spit itself.

    Everything was beautiful, the locals were friendly, so it was a wonderful experience. We were very pleased.

    Enzo is a wonderful host, the apartment is clean, in a good location, every day they deliver breakfast for the next day, juices, fresh fruit, towels are changed every two days, the city beach is approx. 200 m away. The train station is approx. 800 meters away and takes you anywhere/ Naples, Sorrento, Vesuvius, Pompei, etc... Enzo will also recommend places with excellent food and provide you with advice on what to see. Everything is a few minutes walk away, the town of Castellammare di Stabia is beautiful and really worth exploring. A very good experience. If we come back, we will definitely come back to Enzo in this apartment.

    It was just what we were looking for. Enzo was extremely welcoming and really took his time to tell us about the area and things to do. We really enjoyed the area and all the food available. There were some great restaurants and a fantastic Sicilian takeaway just a few minutes away. We also found it very easy to visit other places by train, such as Naples and Pompeii. Overall it was a great experience.

    The shared inner entrance but this was more than made up once you stepped inside il Timone.

    Although it was advertised as a B & B, it was not one in the conventional sense. However, we had more freedom and our host provided us with a vast range of food and non alcoholic drink that was much more than you would expect for just a breakfast each day.

    The neighborhood is a tad sketchy, but no more than the surrounding area.

    The interior is nicely decorated, and has plenty of breakfast food. It feels very secure, too. Enzo was very flexible about our arrival, as we were delayed. he did a super job getting us settled in; just the sort of communicative owner ones to deal with.

    Great place to stay to visit the area around Pompeii and the Amalfi Coast. The apartment is very nice, and the host was very friendly and helpful. He has given a lot of useful information about nice restaurant in the neighborhood, places to visit including time tables etc. Everyday a nice Italian breakfast is served. We can absolutely recommend the B&B! Thanks Enzo, we had a great stay!

    The only bad thing was that the hotel is hard to find, there are no signs, where is the entrace to the hotel. But the host will welcome you so that is not such a problem.

    I can only say good things about il Timone. The room was perfect. The beds were very comfortable and the apartment was big. The breakfast was great. Every morning the host fills your fridge and table with a big and tasty breakfast. You have creams, chocolate, cacao, coffee, bread, salams, cheese, etc. You have every ingredient to have the perfect breakfast. Also the host refils the frigde with water and juice. Everything in this place is great. The host, Enzo, is very helpful. It feels like he is 24/7 awake for your needs. He even put our clothes in a washing machine when we asked him. He will give you information for everything you need - timelines, restaurants, where to go. The rooms are very clean. Everyday he cleans and makes up your beds. Also he even wanted to say goodbye to us when we left the hotel. The hotel is near the center of the city.
