If you are looking for a great place to stay in southern Italy, come to the Naples Experience Hostel! It is the most welcoming hostel I've been to. It's very clean and new, and a great atmosphere with really nice and interesting guests. It's a family-run hostel: Alessandro (the owner), and often his mom, cook an authentic Italian dinner every night and his dad makes delicious homemade wine. His dad also offers a tour of Pompei and Vesuvio by car for a good price, which is definitely worthwhile because it's easy to get there and Pompei is amazing. There is staff available 24 hours a day, every day, and everyone is really nice and easy to talk to. They are expanding the place, and starting in the spring there will even be a private pool. There is also a garden outside with fresh citrus fruits to eat and juice. It's clear that the owners care a lot about the hostel and have a lot to offer about Naples. Naples Experience hostel is a very special, communal place to stay while in the city, and I highly recommend it!
