We enjoyed our stay at Albergo La Prora in mid-November - just after the "off season" started - we felt like we had the island to ourselves. The rooms were "cozy" but had all we needed. We could have been happy without the balcony as the weather was a bit cold, so we did not use the small balcony at all. But the views were incredible and this was a great home base to explore Capri. Very close to the bus stops, shops, restaurants, and hiking. The beds were comfortable. Rooms are not sound proof but we nearly had the place to ourselves, so we weren't bothered. The breakfast was tremendous and a necessity as I don't recall seeing any pastry/coffee places nearby. We enjoyed our last breakfast on the terrace, despite the chill in the air, it was beautiful! Our host was great at communicating regarding weather, ferry schedules, and our ETA as we arrived after the sunset - which made for a bit of a challenge to find the walking path that led to front door :) They do give you a key to the front door, so after hours guests are responsible to lock/unlock as they come and go. Downside to visiting Capri in the "off season" is that hours listed online for restaurants are very unreliable - many places were shut down for the season, so we relied on our host for recommendations, but even some of those were not open. Upside was we had zero crowds and hiking trails all to ourselves. We are still talking about the Pizza we ate at Casa Orlandi Ristorante in Anacapri! It's just at the first bus stop in Anacapri across from where you catch the chair lift ride - which is also a MUST!
