Villa Rocla Guest House Pompei

Abbiamo soggiornato qualche giorno a Villa aro la, mi sento di consigliarla fortemente, si trova in punto strategico per gli scavi di Pompei, la stanza è all’altezza delle aspettative e, soprattutto, i proprietari sono persone attenti al cliente. Struttura di alto livello.

The staff and the accomodations were wonderful!

Safe haven in a noisy city. Great value for money. A calm oasis in a busy city. Everything you need. Excellent breakfast a bargain at 5EUR. Close to ruins. Secure carpark (I didn't use it but there's a secure electric gate with pass key). Roberto and his sister Claudia are attentive and extremely helpful if you want advice on train travel or a good place to eat. Highly recommended.

Good location with free parking Located not far from Pompéi entrance. Owner are very nice and helpful Surrounding not nice but I guess that was not the purpose

I believed the reviews and well angled photos and was also seduced by a good deal.  What the pictures don't show is the delapidated slum area and run down look of this building. Once inside Claudia was wonderfully friendly and helpful but this doesn't justify the sparce and cheap feel of the place. The stated opening times of their reception are quite simply untrue and you are required to tell them a fairly precise arrival time in advance.  Beds are very firm and have plastic backed sheets just in case you're a bed-wetter, pillows are incredibly lumpy and uncomfortable. The shower is very slow to warm up and then merely trickles water at you. There's no extractor in the bathroom making it a smelly place and a slippy place after a shower too. The breakfast is surprisingly okay. Security is very dubious with the rear door left open all night in an unmanned building. My room had a balcony, the door to which had obviously been pried open at some stage and therefore didn't lock properly.  The only selling point for this place is its proximity to the archaeological park which is very convenient. One final note is that the chap attending to breakfast on the second night was far more interested in his mobile phone than his customers. I certainly wouldn't recommend this place to you and will not visit again.

This property is family run & owned. Roberto is extremely kind and helpful. He was absolutely fantastic. Nothing was a problem. The rooms are basic yet very clean. The beds are firm yet comfortable. If you need more blankets or pillows you only have to ask. There is a small shared fridge in the lobby area with free water. The beers and wine are reasonably priced. The continental breakfast is delicious and coffee is prepared at your request. The rooms are all at the rear, overlooking a garden courtyard where there is a large covered table & chairs providing shelter from the sun. The Guest House is within walking distance of Pompei ruins and restaurants. If you are hiring a boat it is also only 10 mins to Marina Di Stabia.
