Our stay at Gemma’s house was okay. Before check-in we informed the host that we we would arrive in Rome around 8pm. She informed us that this was past check-in time (even though the listing stipulated check in was after 3pm and did not state anything else, though during our stay the listing updated to state a fee will be charged to guests checking in past 7pm). We were confused because self check-in was offered on the listing, nonetheless she still helped us to check-in and was very kind.
When we arrived the apartment was decorated nicely, however, the drain had hair in it and there was leftover bar soap still in the shower from the previous guest. We had to ask the host for pillowcases as none were provided for the sofa bed. There were also no garbage bags in the garbage container (which is odd because the host requires you to take out your garbage and put it across the street) or dish soap. Other than that the location was easily accessible by transit and close to main attractions.
