Fabio was a good host and he did warn me about the scaffolding outside. But nothing could have prepared me for what awaited me upon arrival.
The graffiti in the alleyway alone almost scared me off. But the building itself made it look as though I was in a war zone. I was too afraid to enter (Fabio was not present to let my sister and I in). Thankfully the host agreed to come and help us find our way.
Inside the apartment…the studio was nicely renovated, modern and mostly clean (except for the pubic hair on the white coverlet). However, we had no water for most of the evening and there was a lot of noise (yelling) outside the building during the night).
