When I arrived with my friends Giuseppe was upset and made some verbal remarks that I wasn't able to call even though I told him I would only be emailing. He wasn't very welcoming and when we got to his apartment, he pulled out a book and wanted us to sign a paper with my passport id number. I found that odd.

Then, he tried tacking on a charge of 20 euros for a Sunday, which was fine because we anticipated it in addition to a 2 euro per day Rome tax. Hpwever, he claimed they raised it to 3,5 euros per day and wanted us to pay. We felt it was wrong as we agreed to pay the 2 euros in the contract. It was his fault he didn't update his entry. We were willing to call airbnb with his phone but suddenly his English declined.

After a long 20 minute debate and Giuseppe not willing to budge, my fiancé agreed to pay a portion. This experience did leave a bad taste our mouths in addition to his rude welcome.

The place is clean, but it's two rooms not a 2 bedroom which the post claims. The second bed is in the living room. The internet was fine and so was the bathroom. Also beware of hidden charges!

He agreed to come meet us to pick up the key at the apartment and also give us a ride to the train station. That was very nice and generous go him. Our opinions of him changed and all in all I would recommend his place for the price.
