Staying in Piazza Garibaldi and the station, Naples

Check which side of Piazza Garibaldi your accommodation occupies before arrival. The square is large, and crossing it with bags adds time to a connection that looks short on a booking map. Ask for the best station exit and the entrance location. For an early departure, confirm reception arrangements and whether you can leave without waiting for someone to open up.
