“Hotel pour les jeunes uniquement ou les vieux à esprit très jeunes”
The staff were friendly, and the location between Naples and Pompeii is convenient. It was tough to write a review, but I’ll try to separate the facts. We booked the caravan to remind me of my childhood. The caravan is vintage, it does have a fridge but it doesn’t work; fortunately we had an electric cooler. The hotel does have a kitchen with all the necessary equipment. The bed’s mattress is thin, the space is small and worn, and one corner of the table is broken. The main issue is that the caravan is placed in the courtyard, with tables where people can eat on one side and a gate on the other that has to be slammed each time it’s opened or closed because it rubs. It’s a youth hostel. We’ve stayed in similar places before and everything went fine. This time we stayed 5 nights; on the first night we slept badly because of the gate on one side where people come and go even at 4 am, and on the other side, despite posted quiet hours from midnight to 8 am, there were conversations in the courtyard until 2:30 am. The caravan is vintage, so there’s no acoustic insulation. The second night was worse, with young people chatting until 5:30 am. On the third night, to apologise for the noise, the hotel invited us to the young people’s departure party, which was kind of them. There were still a few outbursts after midnight and the gate kept slamming with every client’s entrance and exit. On the fourth night, the young people started leaving, so there was a bit less noise. Finally, on the fifth night it was good; almost all the young people had gone and the hotel was almost empty, so there was no more noise. I know it’s a youth hostel and I take that into account, but putting a caravan between the tables for meals and the gate is really not a good idea, especially with a vintage caravan that’s seen better days, and I’m not even talking about the proximity to the road.
