I spent a week thinking and stressing what to write, but in the end I decided to be honest in my reflection. There were many issues, but I will focus on the main issues. Before arriving, I asked if there was heating and the host said there was. The day I arrived, he told me that it wasn’t working. The first few days were really cold while waiting for an technician. I offered to wait for the technician, and expected the host to have had a detailed conversation with him. Instead, the host hadn’t even communicated to the technician that I don’t speak any Italian, so it was really stressful to have to figure out the situation. That night, the unit started leaking and it took me an hour to convince the host to come back and deal with the issue. During this time, he put pressure on me to take care of the issue. I had to deal with mopping and cleaning the whole kitchen as it was flooding. I told him I had plans but would wait for him to arrive. When he finally arrived, he asked me to cancel my plans and stay home. When I told him, I wouldn’t do that, he asked me to come home in an hour and check up on the issue. When the leaking finally stopped, the host didnt bother cleaning up, the entire time I was there. Over the next few days, we didn’t have any water, not even for the toilet. After that, we didnt have any hot water. I had to take a bucket shower. The host didnt even offer to refund for this major issue. Still I could have gotten past this, because the host was friendly. However, his friendliness transformed to several unwanted advances. I had previously communicated that I wasn’t interested, but the host nevertheless made a move. I won’t go into further detail, but this made me really uncomfortable and angry. As a paying guest, I shouldn’t have to deal with harassment. The host should understand that what he did was wrong, and take his responsibility for his careless actions. In his position of power, he should know better then to be inappropriate with a guest.
