I, my husband and our little baby (15 months) stayed here for 10 days. I gave this apartment a 3 star rating and would like to share why. First of all I must say that Paolo is a perfect host. Brilliant! He arranged the transfer and check-in, helped fix problems quick, presented detailed information on the surrounding places of interest, cafes, shops. So he really did his best and as a host deserves at least a 5 star rating. But we travel and pay not for hosts (I had greate experience with airbnb without ever seeing hosts), but for the apartment. And here was a real trouble for us. I didn't notice in the description that it is a BASEMENT. So no lift, narrow stairs, slight smell of gas (as gas counters for all the apts are in the next room). In Russia it is actually illigal to leave in a basement as it actually is not safe: its cold, damp, low amount of sun ultraviolet results in perfect conditions for bacteria growth. So this was the first disapointment. The second one was the temperature. It was damp and only 16 degrees Celsius at check-in in the room. We used to having 25 degrees at home. But 20 was the maximum according to the host. This was a very servoius problem for us, especially taking into account our baby and winter in Rome. When we came home to Moscow each peace of clothes was smelling damp. Luckily no one got cold and we had great experience around the city. I know that in some countries people used to keep the temperature low in winter in houses. Maybe this place will work for them better. But for us, with little baby it was a real challenge.
