I have never written a negative review ever. But I was quite disappointed and shocked when I checked into Ernesto's place. Communication was great, check in was no problem even though we arrived around 11pm, but the house was untidy, bathroom and kitchen were not places I would invite anyone, let alone have people pay to stay at. Bathroom floor and walls were covered in hair (both kinds) walls with mould, a mop and bucket filled with black water to 'clean up after yourself in the bathroom', the bathroom was just gross. I did make an effort to discuss this with Ernesto and also sent him photos I took, his response was' "maybe it's just not for you". I couldn't stay there as I couldn't use the bathroom in that state.
If people had commented on the state of the house rather than the experience they had meeting people at Together, I would not have stayed there. I feel most of the reviews were about who they met while staying there. The photos of the house on Airbnb are not accurate.
Ernesto said that I might change my mind about wanting to leave after the cleaner had come in the morning, I checked out at 12:30pm and the house and bathroom were still the same.
I have stayed at 1 star hostels cleaner than this. Sorry to leave such a poor review but it might help other people that have saved to travel to all the way to Rome to end up here.
I asked for a refund for the remainder of my stay and was refunded by Ernesto as soon as we checked out.
