This was simply a disappointing experience. We checked in at this property and unfortunately had to find a new place immediately. The ad has several factual errors and the pictures are very old. Below you can read a summary with our remarks:
These are our positive remarks based on our short impression of the aparment:
- The apartment has a lot of space and many beds
- Undisturbed location
- Decent communication with caretaker and host
These are our negative comments:
- The pictures are old and the place is not what I would consider a "luxury" apartment
- There was a mouldy odor / smell in the basement (by the master bedroom) and common area. We also saw mold on the cealing in the basement / cellar
- The place is worn and you notice that the place has been used for rent over time
- It lacks significant details and cleanliness for this to be considered a luxury apartment
- The pool area was not inviting and there was rust and dirt in several places
- There was a smell of mold in the pool area. Potential lack of ventilation or pipe leak?
Note that the aparment is located in the outskirts of rome and you would need to grab a taxi or public transport to reach the city. Travel time will probably be between 15-30 minutes depending on the traffic.
The host responded immediately when we wanted to check out (Not long after check in) and we found ourselves a new place.
