Apartment is in the perfect location for exploring the city, and it was modern and spotlessly clean and had a great shower. The bed was very comfortable. The apartment was quiet (the neighborhood was not, but that is to be expected when you’re in the heart of a city) and Pier gave me keys so I could come and go as I pleased. He was also very accommodating when my arrival time changed (twice). However, I was appalled at the lack of hospitality and the incorrect listing details. This host did not offer me coffee, tea, water or even a glass or cup to make my own. The listing said included was a fridge, microwave and rooftop patio, none of those were offered to me. The bedroom did not have a trash can, and the second time I asked where to put trash, he gave me a bag and told me to take my trash out to the street (the first time I asked, he took it). It is possible that we simply did not communicate. Pier’s written English is excellent but his spoken English is very hard to understand, and it was apparent he didn’t always understand what I was saying.
I look at hosts previous reviews before I book, and he has good reviews. Maybe it really was communication and he expected me to ask for hospitality. I’ve stayed at about 20 different BnBs over the years, though, and I’ve never been treated so poorly. His place is a good value for the money, but I would never stay there again.
