Antonio's place was very dirty on our arrival and it doesn't look like the photos (bit more run down whereas the photos look modern, some appliances didn't work, the couch was different from the photos etc.). There was thick dust on every counter top and bedside table, that you couldn't leave your phone down on it and it was covered in it. There were thick clumps of dust behind the beds and under the beds. The floors were dirty. The shower had dirt all around it and there was a dirty towel left in the washing machine. There was no soap left in the bathroom.
It was cold in April and they turn off the heating in the apartments (this is everywhere in Italy to be fair), but it did leave it quite cold. We did ask for spare blankets and pillows which Antonio agreed to but was quite short in his messages, it didn't seem like he wanted to. We did get the new pillows and blankets the next day though. Eventually we got an apology for the apartment "not being to our standards" (which I'm surprised the level of dirt is approved by his standards for guests to stay in) and he did offer us a refund at that point to go elsewhere but we were already checked in and it was holidays, there was no other accommodation available to go to to so we had no choice but to stay, clean it and just get on with it for the week.
The balcony does indeed have lovely views to be fair but it's not worth staying in a dirty apartment for. Overall, I wouldn't recommend it. We asked Antonio to provide us a refund for the cleaning fee seeing as we had to spend at least an hour cleaning, dusting and vacuuming the apartment on arrival. He refused because he said he provided us with blankets and pillows (I thought this should be provided as an option to all guests when it's cold and the pillows there were years old and practically non existent!). I can't believe he would find it acceptable to have guests stay in a dirty apartment and not even give the refund for a cleaning fee that we paid that doesn't seem to be used.
We've stayed in a lot of Airbnbs as we are continually travelling and we aren't fussy, just expect the basic standard of cleaning, which this apartment didn't have. I'd advise to stay elsewhere.
