The title for this apartment should be “Not so central, without any comfort”. If you want to pay a lot of money and do not care about having a functional washing machine and a working WiFi; if you can sleep with noisy neighbors and water flowing inside tubes in the walls next to your bed; if you are OK with having the host pop up at any time in the apartment without warning and stay for hours; if you do not mind the host taking pictures of your things while you are absent, then this is definitely the place for you.
If on the other hand you believe that the host should have available and functional all the amenities she promises in her apartment’s description, look elsewhere because Francesca is good at taking money, making promises and denying that anything is wrong with her apartment. If you need the Wi-Fi to stay connected, search for another apartment because here you will have slow and inconsistent Wi-Fi. If you need to wash your clothes, do it by hand or go to the laundry mat like I had to do because Francesca will never admit that her washing machine is an unusable old junk. If you like your peace and privacy, this is not where you will find it, because the host feels entitled to come and sneak on you any time she feels like. If you do not want to deal with frequent water leaks in the bathroom, find a better place than this.
I had so many problems with Francesca’s apartment that I finally had to look for another place. I was so tired of having to complain about this or that and having to listen to Francesca deny everything.
To be able to move to the new apartment I asked Francesca if it would have been ok to check out a little later. She agreed and I appreciated it. However at the time of leaving she came up with another surprise: a 40 Euros late check-out fee that she never mentioned before in any of our communications. She claimed that she wrote it on her apartment rules. However she must have edited them because the fee did not appear when I made the booking.
So sad and disappointing that Francesca does not want do the minimum to keep what she promises in her apartment description and make her guests satisfied with the amount of money she likes to take from them.
