Our stay at Gioia's airbnb ended up not being great due to some unforeseen circumstances. The apartment is in a very trendy part of town in Monti, and so it is close to many good wine bars and some good pizzerias, however we were there in August and this summer in Italy, temperatures were their hottest in over a hundred years. There was a heat wave that was named "Lucifer." With that said we stayed in many different places (as we were in Italy for a Month) that had adequate air conditioning and were able to keep us cool. Unfortunately for us at Gioia's, the air conditioning was very weak and didn't reach the bedroom (even though the apartment is actually very small). There was one AC unit in the living room and it only cooled you if you were standing directly underneath it. Our first night in the apartment, we tried sleeping in the bedroom but actually felt like we were being cooked. We moved from the bed in the bedroom to the pullout (sort of) couch in the living room and ended up sleeping there. That put a damper on the comfort of the apartment as we lost space that should have been for sitting and eating to the large pullout couch. We were out of the apartment for most of the day so it wasn't a crazy loss and we dealt with it. The deal-breaker for our experience were all the ants that kept dropping from the ceiling of the kitchen. The owner of the airbnb told us that ants were normal for this time of year and that they sometimes come in from the backdoor where the patio was. I can understand this reasoning except that in our case the ants were filing out of a crack in the middle of the kitchen ceiling and actually dropping to the floor, and they were multiplying very quickly. The owner called a friend of hers who came over to "fix" the problem, however within minutes after her friend left more ants started to come out and drop to the floor as well. By the second occurence of the day, there may have been close to a couple hundred ants in the kitchen and they were starting to spread to the living room and bedroom. On the third occurrence of the night (at almost 10pm), we decided to cancel our reservation and scrambled to find a hotel with a vacancy and left that night. Being that we were only in Rome for a week we didn't want to waste time dealing with the ants. Dead ants, or alive ants, it was an uncomfortable situation for us and we left. We ended up staying only 2 out of the 7 nights but were only refunded for 4 nights. Hopefully this issue has been fully resolved and no future renters will have any problem like this. As for the AC, if you are okay with a warm/hot bedroom in the summer...
