I struggled to rate this B&B. On the one hand, the rooms were very large, the air conditioning worked great, the showers were powerful and the location right beside the train station was so convenient for us as we did a lot of day trips to Rome, Pompeii, etc.
However….. the area itself is dirty, crowded, and would be unsafe for people travelling alone. We were tailed by would-be thieves multiple times, who only gave up after we turned around and deliberately stared at them to make it clear we knew what they were trying. There are some excellent eateries close by, though, so if you don’t mind a rough and ready surroundings, fill your boots.
The staff at the Re Diego also leave much to be desired. There was no one at the desk when we tried to check in at 8:30pm (the desk is only staffed until 7pm, there is no security besides locked doors), so our rooms were left unlocked for us to let ourselves into(!). The delivery of breakfast on a tray to your door in the morning should be a plus, but the staff who sort the trays arrive at 7am precisely and proceed to crash about, shout to one another, use coffee machines and slam doors from the moment they set foot in the place. Good luck to you if you want to sleep in. Breakfast is also only served between 8-10am - too late if you want breakfast before the first train to Pompeii on the Express.
Would I stay at this place again? Probably yes, but we value location over much else. Would I recommend the Re Diego for other travellers? No.
