The host was most helpful. However I thought that Airbnd apartments are owned individually. I never got to meet the host Pietro. Is he a fanthom. After arriving tired from lake Bellagio and having trouble finding the apartment I was sent several emails stating that they were very busy checking people in and I would need to confirm exact time of arrival. This was not possible as we were coming from Lake Como and had to depend on four modes of transport to get there. It was also a Sunday. I found this put me under unnecessary stress. I was under the impression that only hotels charge a city tax. I did not pay it at my other Airbnd apartment. I went with Airbnd thinking they were privately owned. Now I am under the impression that some apartments, especially this one, is just run and possibly owned by pushy Real Estate Agents. Within 20 minutes of arriving at this Airbnd our host asked us for the city tax payment. I was most surprised and disappointed. Penny pinching. I stated that I had never paid it previously. For e.g at my last Airbnd. I know you must pay it if staying at hotels. The host then contacted a real estate lady whom was very pushy and took over from the nice Italian gentleman and showed us around the apartment again. When I stated I was not happy about the city tax. . She argued with me saying it was legal and then rang Airbnd to confirm. It was not the small sum of 6 euros it was that I felt I was being taken advantage of.
