Laura was dishonest in her representation of the apartment. When we checked in (self check-in), and attempted to communicate and resolve those discrepancies with Laura, she was unavailable. Only upon contacting AirBnb did we hear from Laura, who never resolved our issues. Therefore we were unable to sleep and had a terrible stay.
Beyond the fact that I would not trust the host, the apartment was significantly more run-down than in photos. Additionally, the smell which greeted us upon entering the building was extremely off-putting. Finally, the “air-conditioner” consisted of a portable unit attached to a large tube that necessitated the windows remain open all night. Therefore, in order to use the aircon, you had to let in mosquitoes and who knows what other creatures.
I have stayed at many other AirBnbs in Rome, including some in the vicinity. This was, by far, the worst experience.
