First, the good things here. Mauro was a lovely host and easy to communicate with. The apartment was in a quiet spot in the historic centre but within walking distance of everything you might want to see, and also had a large terrace. However, the terrace is pretty much the only living space and was very untidy and not as pictured. It also had an irrigation system for the plants which meant the terrace floor was invariably wet. Despite the irrigation system, there was also a suggestion that the co-host, Rocco who lives next door, should be able to come in and water the plants. The kitchen is cramped, and while well-stocked with knives and pans (and also water and juice in the fridge - thankyou), there is not much crockery or glassware, and also there was a lot of bric-a-brac stored there. Unfortunately, the kitchen sink also had a leak, which can happen to anybody but it meant the kitchen was pretty much unusable while we were there. There were no clothes hangers or much storage space in the bedroom, but lots of artwork and pottery. All in all, it was disappointing and we cut short our visit here.
