My wife and I had been in Italy 2 days shy of a month and were staying with Sylvia for 2 nights as we wound down our trip and relaxed preparing for our long journey home to Southern California. We stayed in Airbnb’s exclusively for this trip as we’ve done for the past 5-6 years all over the world. To say we like airbnb is un understatement, we love it.
Well, I’ve never had a any person be more obviously confrontational and rude toward their guests than Sylvia. To be fair, Her husband was kind and enjoyable.
It began before we even checked in and continued to nearly the last hour we stayed. Threatening us with extra fees for late entry (it’s clearly listed in her listing, no need to stress the obvious), refusing to cancel a dinner reservation (they didn’t speak English) we couldn’t make, and lastly hiring a crazy person to shuttle us to airport.
No! I would not recommend this airbnb to anyone, nor would I ever consider returning.
As far as the airbnb:
-Very small
-Very hot in the loft and the air conditioner doesn’t reach there at all
-clean bathroom
-VERY LITTLE TOILET PAPER (I actually bought some because I had no desire to interact with Sylvia) and gave the remainder away rather than leave it to her
-decent location (20 min to forum)
