1. Paolo is undoubtedly the best host I have ever met. Fantastic experience.
2. Loft is surely unique. Probably the most interesting place I have ever rented via Airbnb. Actually furniture and appliances are a bit older than you see on pictures, but it doesn’t make a place worse.
3. Location. A lot of bars, a few affordable restaurants with tasty food, extremely easy to buy hash, peaceful atmosphere despite of the first impression. But. In some reviews Pigneto is compared to Kreuzberg. Don’t trust those people. The size of these neighborhoods and their cultural life are incomparable. If in Kreuzberg you can live the whole week without leaving the area, there is nothing to do in Pigneto except to buy some food on local market in the morning or drink some cocktails at night. No independent shops, studios, not too much remarkable bars, no clubs etc.
4. NOISE. When we were living in the apartment, people upstairs were breaking walls. Literally. Starting from 9 am. It’s unbelievably stupid to come to party area with idea to hang out at night time and be awaken every single day by sound of hammer. And moreover. Vibrations were so intense that small stones and dust constantly falls from ceiling. We even couldn’t dry washed clothes at open area, because in one day we had to wash them again. I know that legally workers could do their job in that period of time, but I think that in that case guests should be notified about possible problems in advance or some kind of discount should be offered. I hope renovation will end soon and other people won't face such negative experience.
