Excellent place. Excellent location few steps from Campo di fiori. I definitely would stay there again. So even with the downsides I will list next, believe me, it is an awesome location. It is clean. ACs function perfect. If there is a little downside, it was made from the host.
1.- One of the first things after you arrive, he/she (via app inbox) made us clear to read the rules that were written on a sheet of paper on the kitchen. Rules were about common sense things, but there were others about different charges (I highlight the “dishes charge” and “city tax charge” WICH IS ALREADY PAID IN THE AIRBNB CHARGE. DO NOT PAY TO THEM, they will try to collect it AGAIN. I definitely did not care about that sheet, the only rules I care are the ones published in the Airbnb listing. So to me, you can just ignore that sheet of paper. They say there is a charge of 30€ for dirty dishes. You can just ignore that, there is no way they can charge you after you leave. I rented the place 5 NIGHTS. And even though I never ate in the apartment, the morning we left we did use some dishes. I did not wash them. There was no charge. So maybe you just dont leave a complete mess and everything will be alright.
2.- The first day we arrived, we were already on a tour outside. The host contacted me saying that some workers and a contractor have to GO IN my apartment because is the only way to access the roof or something like that and that they have to make a mantainance to the building, NOT MY APARTMENT i think, maybe othe one. We have left some valuable belongings there so I told her I was not there, that they could wait until we were there. She told me “well, they are already there outside”, as in saying me “they will enter anyway”. So I just make her assure me that they were trustful people. She told me that the man was the OWNER of the building, nothing to worry, etc. Everything was ok. When we got back we did not even notice any movement, so I think they just enter to go out by a window or something, my room was in the top floor. It just made my first say a little uncomfortable knowing some worker were inside my room. This are beautiful old buildings (not the room, the room is as modern as can be, in a good way) and I understand there is no way to access the roof from the outside, I just think they could schedule their mantainances better or maybe could wait until we got back.
3.- If you are planning AS ANY TOURIST to use your nights to manage your trip pictures in your iCloud or something, I just want to warn you that Wifi is VERY LOW on the bedroom, almost no Wifi there. Because the modem/router is in the kitchen/living room. In the case of the maintenance, the host would answer me almost immediately. Just seconds after that conversation I told her about the wifi, she just told me something as “there is nothing i can do to help” and I kept messaging her. There was not a single answer from them until the last they when they wanted to collect AGAIN a “city tax”. And the worst thinfg is that there is a VERY EASY solution to that problem, if they would have a larger ethernet cable, anyone could relocate the router to an outlet closer to the bedroom. I told her that, she said there was no cable. I asked her what could I do to fix the wifi problem, SILENCE from her part until the last day. But again, there IS good wifi, it just does not reach the bedroom.
4.- The last day, they sent me a message just giving farewell, etc. The main subject was just asking me to leave the city taxes (3.5€ per person per night, something like that). I just told them the taxes were already paid in the app payment, that they were of that. They answered “ooh, thats right, we havent notice it, then its ok”. We paid city taxes in other cities, because the listing was published with that. “It is required to pay city taxes in cash at arrival”. And they doesnt charge them in the app. But this listing did not say that, so you understand it is the total price, and again, those taxes were broken down in the airbnb payment. So I think they just want to take advantage of some tourists.
But again, having said all that, it is definitely an excellent place to stay. It is clean, it is well located. You want to stay around Campo di Fiori, there is a lot of day and night life.
