First thing to say about Fabrizio’s place is that it really is greatly located. We were two guests. We never saw Fabrizio. The access to the apartment is secure, meaning you need a key or someone to open the building's door.
Own little own check-in story: Fabrizio told us to ask for Sara. There were no Sara at the ring thing. We were lucky, someone was leaving where we were entering so we've been able to enter the building but we still didn't know where to go. We got lucky again another owner (I guess) was waiting for his Airbnb guest and tried to guide us. We told him about a Sara but not luck, no Sara. We gave him Fabrizio's number. He tried to call a few times but Fabrizio never answered. We finally found at some place in my Airbnb communications with Fabrizio that we needed to ring the bell BANCE YAMBA and it was all sorted out. It all happened in 5 minutes so it's nothing bad, it could just be better.
She is absolutely amazing. We're french Canadian and she spoke french, which was very convenient.
Fabrizio’s place is nice. If going to Rome again, I'd book his apartment again.
It could be more clean in the kitchen (kitchenware). The essential is here. We didn't cook as much as we expected so it wasn't an issue after all. If you intend to do a serious grocery to save on restaurant or whatever, make sure to ask Fabrizio about the kitchenware before going. As simple as that.
Also, we noticed some mold in the bathroom. Like on the ceiling in the shower and over the toilet's tank. The apartment has an A/C that work really work but for some reason the humidity had hard time going down. It was really comfortable, it was just kinda hard to get stuff really dry as we're used to. But again, that's just me. There's a washer outside with everything you need, Bance will make sure to help you :-) She's wonderful. But then again, drying stuff is hard. The washer doesn't seem to spin enough, our laundry was still totally wet but again, maybe that's just us. It was two beach towel and a large beach sheet what we bought at Ostia's public beach so maybe our laundry size was just too much. I don't know.
The radio doesn't work very well. The mini laptop is a decoration or something, I don't understand why it's there. I turned it on just to see, it's Windows XP in Italian. No internet connection or whatever. Anyway, just saying. The WiFi had no password when we went. It was okay. For some reason, no cellular connection was available inside the apartment. Walls must be made really thick or something lol it is literally the only place the cellular connection didn't work with TIM. But we had to use the WiFi. Which was kinda of slow. 10mbps up/down I think. For some reason it was struggling with Messenger Video Call. It shouldn't tho, so maybe a router thing. I scanned the network and saw no one else other than us using it (the WiFi had no password). But as I said, the apartment seems to be build like a bunker so the WiFi signal doesn't go past the door. Just as the cellular signal doesn't come in lol.
The bed was really comfortable. Sheets were clean. No weird smell. The sofa bed is firm but somewhat comfortable too.
So anyway, for the price we paid, the location, it was a really good Airbnb experience.
I warmly recommend it.
