Hey! Thank you for letting me stay. I am grateful you opened up your home.
I'd say the apartment has a lot of wear and tear and needs a deep cleaning. When I arrived it was very dusty and smelled that way. Having a housekeeper helped keep it manageable throughout my stay.
Also, as a single woman, I didn't feel safe right outside the apartment (especially at night).
There is a lot of shady business happening right in front of the apartment. Also, its along a really noisy road. Given it was August I had to keep the windows open because there is no AC and it was sooo hot in Rome (which i knew in advance).
Francesco was very responsive and apologized when his housekeeper canceled twice. I did have a coin fall out of my pants into the washer but I paid for the repair.
Thank you, again Francesco. I appreciate the opportunity to stay in your home. I did like Pigneto's main street with restaurants. It was quite lovely. Just felt unsafe *right* in front of the apartment.
