We booked this place because of all the positive reviews. And I do understand that location and looks of the apartment are great, but for us this was the worst Airbnb experience ever. To give you an idea, these are the houserules Fernanda gave us:
- no hair in the shower drain
- no usage of the electronic outputs, (we are on a roadtrip so we had a portable fridge with us) because it costs too much energy
- you need to pay 3 euro's per day for the kitchen
- an extra 3 euro's when you use a (smelly) washing machine, but buy your own detergent
- chairs or suitcases can not be touching the wall
-There is a coffee machine but no coffee and further not much amenities in the kitchen, so bring your own..
But there is more: the host started cleaning at around 8.30 in the morning and when I stood up (sleeping wasn't possible anyways) to go to the bathroom she told me directly that she still wants the money from the washing machine (and if we used it twice that would be 6€ - which we did not). Not a great way to start your day.
On our last night we were gone for 40 minutes to go to the grocery store around 21:00 and when we came back our window was closed (???). She does not live in the same house, but when we left she went into our room to close the window. That was super creepy! How did she know we were gone?
On our first day we also turned o the airco (it was 30 degrees in Rome) to have a cold room, but when we came back in the afternoon it was switched off.
I think, if you can not accept that people live in this house do not rent it out to others and controlling your guests like this made us feel really uncomfortable.
