The apartment itself was clean and as expected. Not really near any of our points of interest aside from the Vatican but the bus took care of that. Elvio met us at check-in and explained to us the need to conserve electricity due to the war in Ukraine which he blamed on us (America). He also told us to be sure to let him know if we needed more to eat as he had left breakfast items in the dining room. On day four, I sent him a message requesting more cereal. My husband and I both received multiple hateful messages from Elvio about the differences in Italian and American breakfast (which we knew very well), and told me he would not be bringing us more to eat. It was not a problem at all for us to go to the store and buy more cereal. I would never have reached out to him about it if he hadn’t specifically asked me to do so. On our first full day there, I could not find the iron that the listing said would be provided. So I messaged Elvio and he told me he could come the following evening to unlock the cabinet the iron was stored in. So I did not have an iron for half of our trip. I recommend asking him to unlock the iron cabinet when he’s there at check-in if you choose to stay with him. He seemed to very much dislike having American guests, or at least that’s the impression we got between him implying that a war was our fault and acting like he was upset that we had followed his request to let him know when we needed more food. Like I said, the apartment itself was fine. Elvio was always quick to respond when we had questions. I would not recommend staying here if you are an American, due to Elvio’s obvious dislike of Americans or maybe just his misplaced blame for the unfortunate crisis in Ukraine.
