Our room looked exactly like the pictures. Patrizio was quick to respond and sent us a very detailed message regarding the airbnb and check in.
We never saw him during our stay but he said he was available if we needed his assistance.
The entrance to the metro is a 5 minute walk from the airbnb.
WiFi was fast.
My only recommendations would be to add a mirror and trash can to the room.
We didn't want to use the bathroom to get ready (makeup/hair) since it was a shared bathroom but the only other area to get ready at was in the kitchen where a large wall mirror is located. But people were having breakfast at the table and we didn't want to be bother them.
The airbnb is located off a busy street and can be noisy. It did not bother us or keep us from falling asleep.
Keep in mind that you're sharing a place with other guests. There were some other guests who got in around 3 am and were very loud. We had to ask them to keep it down because we couldn't go back to sleep.
If you're planning on staying here and visiting the tourist attractions I'd recommend buying the 24 hour metro card. The metro is like the subway in the US.
