This was probably our 10th Airbnb & I only like to leave positive reviews, because I know it is the livelihood of the host, however I must leave an honest review.
The location is nice & safe in a residential area, which is perfect. 15-20 min bus ride to attractions. Many markets and great restaurants within walking distance. Internet was fast and being on the ground floor was nice.
The home itself was just a nightmare with 4 kids. The electricity went out every second. Apparently, if the water heater and ANY electrical device are on simultaneously, the electricity goes out! One must choose between hot water or a washer, dryer, air conditioner or blow dryer, etc. There's serious electrical problems here! Surely the host is aware of this, because the water heater was oddly unplugged! Basically, we never had hot water, because we needed to charge devices, wash or dry clothes or use the air condition.
The pans were absolutely filthy with white specs of paint. Broken chairs, ladder, dead flowers, giant typewriter and junk all over the house. In one room, 2 light bulbs out of 10 worked. The sink in the bathroom leaked constantly. The TV and shower head holder were broken. Used bars of soap left from previous people. This place was just a disaster!
After a person pays $1,000s to go on vacation, we would hope for basic necessities like hot water! I can't believe we were given this place under these horrible conditions! It absolutely ruined our time in Rome!
