This place is very well located, convenient to the train station and anything else you want to do in Rome. The home was also very well designed and had some unique features.
The issues:
1. There was an excessive check-in process that had to be filled out before arrival. I don’t know if this is a new Italian requirement, but the check-in had to happen on a separate website outside of AirBnB. This shouldn’t happen.
2. there was no toilet paper when we arrived. It was also extremely difficult to find. We had to call the host, they had to tell us about a hidden key somewhere in the house and that key could open the cabinet for toilet paper. The host was also not responsive to questions on the AirBnB app, and was adamant about using Whats-App for communication.
3. There was no hot water when we arrived. All three of us had to take cold showers that night. We notified the owner as soon as we noticed it that evening, but he didn’t show up to fix it until later the following day. He gave us things to try to fix it ourselves, but it did not work. There was also no communication on when the issue was fixed. We had to reach back out(through Whats-App) to the owner to get confirmation that it was fixed.
All that to say, if all you are looking for is a place with lots of charm and convenience, this is great for that.
We would not stay here again personally because of the communication issues and the complexity of getting issues fixed when they came up. This property does not deserve to be an AirBnB Plus property, IMHO.
