I'm just now getting back on here since our return from Napoli. We stayed in the Best Western Hotel Paradiso. The hotel was nice because they arrange pick up from the airport for you and have a restuarant in the hotel. There is also a taxi stand right out of the front door of the hotel, so we were able to find a taxi waiting there each time that we had somewhere to go. It's about a 5 min taxi ride to the Embassy. To get there, it cost us 5 euros and to get back to the hotel was 7 euros (we got stuck at a couple of red lights). Monday morning, we got up and went for my husband to complete the medical. We got there around 0750 and there were already several people waiting for the visa medical. We got back to our hotel around 1045. My husband had to be at the Embassy at 1400 to get his fingerprints done, Monday afternoon. That took him about 15 min to get done. Tuesday morning, we got to the Embassy at 0700 (our appt was at 0730) and there was a line of about 15 people in front... read complete review

Well, I got my K1 visa issued from Naples last tuesday (Nov. 29)and I would like to share my interview experience with the visayourney community...
DOCUMENTATION PREPARATION: NOTE: READ VERY CAREFULLY THE PACKET 3 INSTRUCTIONS.
1)DS 230 part I: fill, sign and fax it to the Naples consulate along with "APPLICANT'S STATEMENT" (last page of the Packet 3 instructions). Fil but DO NOT SIGN part II.
2)Fill out but DO NOT SIGN...I repeat DO NOT SIGN....I repeat again DO NOT SIGN
TWO COPIES of DS-156 and one copy of the DS-156K. AGAIN, BRING TWO UNSIGNED COPIES of the DS156.
I did not read the instructions carefully and I signed the DS 156. Fortunately, the night before the interview, I reviewed the instructions and I managed to re-print the form in my hotel. The consular staff people are really picky on documentation and might send you back.
3)Birth certificate (BC): although packet 3 asks for both beneficiary ... read complete review

Dear VJ friends,
I hope this review helps you. Well I was very blessed because I stayed with friends from Naples, so they knew where everything was and I didn't really need to worry about it. But anyway I think that if you ask people they are very nica and willing to help.
DAY 1.
I woke up early that day, I know it's so much stress so it was hard to sleep but anyway I was in front of the Istituto Varelli at 7. It was pretty cold so I was so happy ti find out that they let you in anyway. I gave my passport to one of the ladies at the reception and sat down at the yellow chairs.
After a while people kept coming and then at about 8.15 they started calling names for the blood withdrawal. It was very strange because I stil haven't figured out the order that they called us, but it sure wasn't in arriving order. In fact they were not that organised. Anyway afterwards I went back to the yellow chairs and waited for a nice quite old ... read complete review

Here is my fiance, Fabrizio, described to me about his experience in Naples
First of all, Fabrizio recommends to use the taxis to get around Naples, but you might want to negotiate on the prices. They are pretty cheap and they will get you anywhere you want to go. He also recommends to watch out for the cars when you are walking because they don't pay much attention to red lights...
Fabrizio stayed at Napul'è bed and breakfast at 92 Riviera di Chiaia and it worked out well and it is close to the consulate and reasonable priced. The rooms are restored and have air conditioning, bathroom, tv, and internet (which was great because we were able to skype). He said it is a really old building without a sign, but just look for the 92 on the outside.
Day 1
My fiance was the first to show up at the medical and you wait on the yellow chairs. Other people started showing up after a little while (he said there were about 10 other people) and... read complete review

This is my K-1 visa experience in Naples between sunday 11th and tuesday 1th3:
Me and my Dad(let someone accompany you if you can) at the B&B Napulè (Riviera di Chiaia 92),just 200 meters from the consulate in Piazza della Repubblica therefore in a PERFECT position for anyone who has to go through this 3 days journey in Naples. The owners are very nice and professional and will do the outmost to help you for any problem you might have; they also know a lot about the visa process since the majority of their hosts are Visa Applicant at the US General consulate. If you're one of those concerned about Naples and robbery in hotels..you can trust these people with your life,It's a family run B&B..they live there too.
ok let's talk about the real stuff now:
Day 1: MEDICAL VISIT AT ISTITUTO VARELLI: Valeria,one of the owners, reserved a taxi for us the day before and at 6:25 I was on my way there where I got at 6:35,25 minutes before the Varelli op... read complete review
