Devis and I arranged the arrival time of 14:00 a few days before but due to “a sudden unforeseen difficulty” he had to change this to 20:00. I asked if there was any way in which he could arrange to have the key left with a friend/neighbour but he told me this is not possible and, furthermore, told us that we could leave our baggage at the “cheap” railway station deposit (12 euros…).

After being forced to change all of our plans we arrived after 20:00 and were given a quick introduction to the place.
I asked if there was any possibility for us to leave our baggage at the b&b the following day so we could freely venture round the city but Devis very stubbornly told us that we had to leave at 10:00 and, again, told us to use the “cheap” baggage deposit.

The next day we woke up at 09:00, showered and packed while checking if breakfast had been prepared. I soon noticed that Devis had not only prepared nothing but was also not even in the flat. We left at 10:00 leaving the keys with his friend who had stayed with him.

I felt very unwelcome during my short stay, as if I was nothing but a burden for being there.

In summary: Devis caused a lot of problems on my final day in Italy, was completely unapologetic about it and didn’t even bother to prepare us a breakfast.
