The host, Maria Laura is rude and miserable. My family and I stayed in her home for a week and were silent. We did not cook, smoke or have parties. We basically only used the home for sleeping (it is far too hot to be inside it during the day anyway) -We were excellent guests and treated the home with an incredible amount of respect. We cleaned the house from top to bottom before we checked out. Wasting part of our Italian vacation sweeping, taking out every single piece of trash, making the beds. We washed down every single countertop, every dish and literally left the home cleaner than we found it. Several days later, Maria messaged me privately to tell me on WhatsApp that the house wasn’t cleaned to her standards and we were “bad guests”. I’m actually pretty sure it’s against Airbnb standards to communicate with guests privately outside of the app.
Nevertheless, the experience was unfortunate because the location of her flat was ideal. Two of the rooms for sleeping were ungodly hot - especially the attic so it’s really only the front room that gets adequate ventilation. If you’re a light sleeper, be warned that the front room is loud until about 3 am. The apartment has 4 stories to walk up on winding small stairs with no lift. In summer with bags, it can be quite brutal.
Honestly I recommend you look elsewhere unless you’re a professional maid and plan to spend hours of your Italian vacation cleaning her house with a fine tooth comb. No location is worth the aggravation in my opinion.
