We stayed here during the mid-end of November. Guglielmo’s place has a great location, the street is incredibly quiet and close to everything. A short walk to the trains, Vatican, St. Peter’s basilica, etc. Everywhere we wanted to travel to in Rome we were not far from, the location was the best part! In the ad it says that heating is included, and while the weather was mild the apartment was on the cooler side throughout our stay and the heater never turned on. A sweater had to be kept on during the day in the apartment but thankfully there was a wonderful down bed cover which was so warm and cozy it made sleeping well very easy. Check in was a bit problematic, unlike other hosts i’ve had the pleasure of speaking with, Guglielmo was not as active in communicating with me. Other hosts have messaged me when the trip was upcoming but Guglielmo did not. When we called him to check in he stated there was a video that would explain the process and yet there was none to be found. He also said that the woman who cleans the apartment would let us in, and that was the extent of our communication with him until he messaged asking for the city tax to be left on the counter, his most proactive communication. The woman let us in to drop off our luggage but even though we arrived shortly after the advertised check in time of 2PM she told us she still needed an hour to clean. This was not too much of a problem since we arrived hungry and excited for the city of Rome, but when we returned expecting the air to smell clean and fresh it smelled as if nothing had been cleaned at all. The bathroom smelled like wet dog for some reason, and we even bought candles later in the trip to combat the smell. The ad says that you must wear slippers in the house, and I decided that slippers and bare feet were interchangeable but i found the floor to be filthy, walking across the common room left my feet very dirty. I had also messaged him months before our trip and asked for the bikes that he graciously offers to be lent to his guests, but there was no mention of any bicycles when we arrived. The wifi also caused us some issues, we had to restart the wifi extender to get it to work but only realized this was the problem on our final day. The issues that we had during our stay are very easy to fix and revolve around Guglielmo’s communication and desire to be helpful to his guests while they visit this beautiful country, as well as the qualifications of the woman who he hires to clean. I had a wonderful time in Rome, and since I did not come for a five star staying experience I was not affected much by the slight inconveniences we experienced but my stay at this location could have been improved.
