This is exactly what the Airbnb experience was originally about. I will go back in a heartbeat. Loretta welcomed us at the main entrance with a big smile. She showed us around and took time to share her insights and give her recommendations on where to eat. It was a great start. She is so quick to respond and her classy demeanor is top among the other 6 we met this Summer.
The house is a fully furnished living place where you get to experience the real deal. The living room feels like a home away from home with antique and colorful furniture. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you may need. Snacks, coffee and tea were readily available which was quite a nice surprise.
The location of the apt is simply perfect. A stride to the metro or shops and restaurants. The Duomo is 6 mins away. Perfect location.
I would have give this place a 5-star but it needs a good cleaning. If we pay for cleaning, we should expect a spotless house. The sheets felt old and musty. The pillow cases felt unwashed. The pillows old and stained. That was the only drawback. I suggested to the host a much needed major cleanup.
