Our experience here truly embodies ‘you get for what you pay for’.
Walls are really thin so you can hear whatever the next neighbour says and as it’s a street just outside and a restaurant next to the Airbnb, you’ll hear everything that happens at night in public. The shower heating was cranky so you’ll get hot and cold water that changes every 10 seconds, the water pipe is also spoilt so there are times there’s no water running at all from the tap in the middle of showering/brushing your teeth. The metal bar for holding the towel was also broken.
Chairs are dirty with brown stains on it. Bed was acceptable. It’s a very small room but it was fine as we were mostly out for most of the day. There are 4 keys to get through the Airbnb as it’s in a really old building and the lock is rusty and spoilt so we spent 5 mins each day just trying to lock and unlock each time we leave and return to the stay.
Throughout all of this, Giovanni did not once attend to our questions and did not reply to any of our texts the entire 5 days we were here.
While it’s a 10-min walk from Roma Termini, it’s not exactly near the city centre (30-min walk to the nearest tourist attraction) so we walked a lot.
