The flat is located a 10 minute walk to a train station, which takes you right into Rome's city centre in about 20 minutes. The flat is quiet when windows are closed. When windows are open one can hear the traffic from nearby streets. The view is lovely over the river. The reason for my low rating is two-fold:
1) Communication prior to arrival was very last minute, ie. we received the information at midnight on the day we were going to check-in. We told Marco just after booking the accommodation, that we will have limited internet before arrival and that it would be great to receive all the info for check-in a couple of days before (especially given an app/mobile access had to be filled in to open the front door with the phone). This did no happen and was unnecessarily stressful.
In addition the heaters were not working. The first couple of days it was warm, but one day it rained heavily and was really fresh and it was chilly at home parallel to our clothes being wet from walking through the rain. We asked Marko how to make the radiators work or whether they are out of order, but received no reply.
2) Though general cleanliness of the flat was as it is expected, we shared our dinner with a cockroach family which seem to have infested the kitchen. Given the price charged for this AirBnB, this is unacceptable. I am not sure at what price I would find it acceptable, but certainly not for this one. This needs to be sorted asap.
The place is really nice, but I would not stay here again if the above issues persist.
