While we were greeted to a place which was almost as described, there were some issues with our accommodations. Most notably we had trouble with lack of heating, though that was due to wider Rome municipality policy. Nevertheless we still found ourselves in a chilly apartment, with cold bathroom being the most troubling during the showers. While our host was quick to answer our messages regarding this issue, we were basically told to "tough it out".
Apart from heating, we also had issues with hot water boiler. It was turning off. A simple restart would fix it. However, when we notified our host, it turned out to be a known issue and we weren't notified about it when we checked-in.
Other minor troubles were broken electric kettle and general wear and tear of the apartment.
Despite all that, it was an okay stay, with most basic needs covered, with a responsive host and an apartment that was clean and tidy. The location was good, well connected and in a peaceful neighborhood.
