The location is as promised. Everything else is not. If you have average standards as an AirBnb traveler, and mainly look for places to JUST sleep and shower with none of the extras than this can work. I tend to search out Superhosts because they’re qualified to give their guests an above average experience. This particular apartment was listed with a washing machine, a small kitchen, a tv and a small bathroom.
The washing machine was broken and full of mold. They left instructions on how to use the broken machine properly (which consisted of using a screw driver inserted into the hole where a button once was located). The mold in the washer gave the whole apartment a humid moldy smell.
The bathroom had no amenities as mentioned, it did not even have toilet paper. The shower had mildew spots in the grout, and the drain was full of hair. We cleaned (with our own cleaning products because the apartment did not have disinfectant or cleaning sprays) the shower before I placed my child in it, but after 2 min the drain was overflowing with dirty bath water. We reported to the host, and they did send a plumber that same day. But the issue was not fixed. The shower continued to flood.. we ended up taking quasi showers using the sink and shower hose. Thankfully my son and I are super petite.
I would give this place a below average rating. The host (although he was out on a family situation) did reply to all the messages we sent quickly. But the issues in the apartment were substantial and needed more than a quick fix. Hope that they work on making this cute central apt usable for guests to enjoy their visit to Rome.
