Unfortunately the pictures in the listing do not match the current state of the apartment. While the staff that manages the property is very nice and responsive, we would not stay here again. It was dark, depressing and very austere. The most basic furnishings, much more cramped than expected and pretty shabby. We stayed in two other Air BnBs in Italy that were amazing and so I know this is not the norm at this price point.
The rave reviews provided in 2018 and 2019 were our reason for booking but it seems as though the apartment has needed updating and maintenance since then. The building itself, even before you reach the apartment, is pretty shabby - the lobby entry and hallways are in rough shape. This is not the kind of place you’d take pictures in to show your friends where you stayed on vacation.
If you book this property, just know that you’re in for a pretty basic accommodation - one small towel per person, no hand soap, no toiletries. The location is pretty central so this property is best for people who need something basic and won’t be spending too much time there. We ended up leaving the apartment early and stayed at the Westin because the vibe was just so off and I didn’t want to bring our good spirits down by staying in a depressing place in an otherwise beautiful city. It was disappointing but our choice to leave improved our morale.
