A nice stay, but below expectation.
Me and my sister have traveled through Italy for a few weeks and have only stayed at Airbnb’s. This apartment was the only one that didn’t quite meet our expectations. The apartment itself is quite big and has lots of room, which we really appreciated. It’s close to everything you’d need, all the parts of Rome worth seeing and has a great view. However, the furniture are in desperate need of cleaning, the floorboards have come undone in several places (which really bothered us, and was the biggest let down) and the apartment has an overall tired feeling to it. The place definitely needs a renovation.
The beds and towels are perfectly clean, the toilet too. There was only one toilet-paper roll (for a 6 day stay), no dish soap and no clean sponge to use; necessities that we are aware are not promised to the guests, but we expected so to previous experiences. We also had some problem with the electronics: the AC takes some time to turn on, the dishwasher is outdated and hard to use. The shower, which supposedly has enough hot water for 2-3 showers, last for 1.5 showers maximum and changes temperatures really slowly.
The positive notes are the big space and it’s location. It was relatively clean and did have perks to it (washing mashing and an iron). The host is quick to respond and is really nice, she even provided us with different recommendations and suggestions on what to do/see during our stay
