Firstly, we must celebrate Giordano and Carmen. They are a a fabulous hosting team. They respond to queries very quickly, often within a few minutes, and are keen to do anything they can to make your stay enjoyable. Including fabulous food recommendations (we basically ate the entire holiday!) We had a fruit bowl on arrival, and although we noticed the carbon monoxide/ smoke alarms were missing, they were installed a few hours after raising this with the hosts.
The flat is bang in the middle of the hustle and bustle of the historical centre. You are a short walk from many places of interest and super pizza!
Despite this, it’s important to share that the wall between this flat and the one next door is very thin. Next doors toilet flushes INCREDIBLY loudly and when you’re fast asleep, it not only wakes you up, but is frightening too. We ended up moving into the spare room half way through the first night when it was clear we wouldn’t get any sleep in the main room. The spare room is adjacent to the stair well, which again has some noise issues but gave us a better rest.
We were excited to stay in our first Airbnb Plus but have been disappointed. In comparison to other places, this flat has been furnished with lots of IKEA style furniture, therefore not giving us a ‘one of a kind, thoughtfully designed’ that Airbnb says to expect from these superior properties.
Also in case you plan for using it, there isn’t a washing machine.
