This should have been a good review, but unfortunately lots of things were not in place:
- Apartment was not cleaned and ready at agreed check-in time
- Only a cleaning lady arrived for the check-in
- Got no instructions at check-in on how to turn on the hot water and the heat
- Lock to the building very difficult to open (was locked out until got help)
- Cleaning lady left the windows open so it was freezing cold when I came back
- Wifi was not working for most of the stay
- No hand soap in bathroom, and other small items missing
- Dirty plates in the cupboard
Both the host Antonio and the owner was very nice and tried to sort out most of the above, but these things should have been in place from the beginning.
The WIFI was at first not working at all, then a new router was set up, but worked very poorly and only around the kitchen, then it got changed again, and it worked nicely for about 12 hours, and then not at all on the last day of may stay. Three times I had to change WIFI password, and every time the new password was long as your arm, written in both uppercase and lowercase letters - but the password was actually in lowercase only.
Be aware the apartment is on the third floor with no elevator and very steep steps. Also there is no mobile coverage in the apartment (very thick walls and narrow streets), only on the balcony and at the windows I managed to get a signal.
The apartment is in a central location, and has just enough of the basic facilities to work, but don't expect anything charming or nice.
Despite all this, I would not mind stay another time, provided the WIFI is working and the apartment is ready at the agreed time for check-in.
Both the host and the owner was very nice and friendly, and did effort to put things in place.
If the WIFI is working, and guests gets a proper check-in, with instructions on how to enter the building, how to turn on the heat and the hot water, and gets a well typed and simple password for the WIFI, then I would recommend the place.
