I can‘t recommend to stay at Cecilia’s place!
First of all it’s nice and clean apartment in a good area of Rome. Bed is not really comfortable. You can go by metro or bus to city center.
The communication with Cecilia was horrible. She has a lot(!!) of rules and you have to tell her the exact arrival time and you’re not allowed to come 10 minuets later or you have to pay.
BUT when we arrived (punctually) she wasn’t there. She didn’t replied for 2,5 hours(!!!), we called her and wrote her messages on Airbnb.
We felt very lost. It was after 9 pm and we wanted to book a hotel room. She wrote us a message that she is “so sorry” and she lost her phone. Afterwards her mom (who lives in the house) opened us the door. We felt very disappointed and it was a really horrible arrival!!
I can’t understand how someone who’s so strict with rules and penalties, could not reach her mom or could not open the Airbnb Website to write us. Both isn’t impossible in “modern” times, even without a smartphone (friends phone, any object with an internet connection)
Apartment nice, but it wasn’t worth this horrible arrival.
