The wonderful things about this Airbnb:
1. The location is very central! It is a short walk to the metro.
2. There was a market on Saturday that was so fun to explore!
3. The host left us crackers and jam which was perfect for the morning. We didn't have time to do grocery shopping, and it was much appreciated.
4. The host's son was very helpful at check in with providing us information about the neighborhood. He recommended Artico gelato which was to die for!
The things that could be improved...
1. It just didn't feel homey. There were hardly any decorations on the shelves and it was mismatched. The TV sits on a wire shelf. There are ornate Klimt paintings and then a mismatch of other art. But it just didn't feel like a home. It felt like an investment property.
2. It smelled like herbs when we entered each time. We couldn't pin point the herb, but it seemed like parsley? Maybe it is grown on someone's balcony?
3. The building is pretty tired. Pictures of modern sky rises where included in the listing. This was definitely not of the building that this Airbnb is in. So our expectations were a bit off.
But all in all, we enjoyed our visit. And Paolo and her son were great. It just wasn't exactly what we had expected.
