Washing machine and dishwasher was great.

The stay could have been significantly improved if the hosting and facilities were better

The apartment is in a great location. It was quiet. There are good curtains which block out the light for sleeping. We requested another set of keys and the owner sent one within the hour (although didn’t actually reply to the message).

We were unable to check in at 5pm as agreed. We had to wait 45 minutes from calling the host with issues to be able to check in; she was very difficult to communicate with and also said it would be 10 minutes (I was also with my 80 year old father in 30/85 degree heat, if she had been honest I would have had him go to a nearby cafe and wait). We were unable to use the washing machine as it was clearly not working (stagnant water in the base). The cleaner did come back within 1 hour to fix it and so it could them run. However, we had to go buy bleach and manually clean out lots of dark black mould from the machine, which was pretty gross. There were not basic supplies provided- no dishwashing soap, laundry detergent, paper towels/ kitchen roll, insufficient toilet paper. There was also a huge amount of mosquitos and other bugs in the flat .

This had a lot of promise, but I was VERY disappointed

Location close to ever and sites

First, we waited for 2.5 hours after our scheduled time to check-in. Host said prior guest would check out at 11, need 3 hours for cleaning, we could check in at 2:00. Upon arrival, cleaning staff had just started. Couldn’t get into the apartment until 4:30 which left no time to get ready for our 5:00 food and wine tour. Second, upon coming back from the tour on night 1 we found tons of bugs in the back bedroom. They were coming in via a hole under the window sill. Termites and ants, mostly but others too. My husband spent a ton of time killing them, cleaning up, then plugging the hole with a bleach-soaked rag. We called and requested an exterminator at first thing in the morning. Don’t thing one ever came (because the rag was still where we put it) but staff must have come by because the cleaned up the pile of dead bugs we left for them. Third, washing machine didn’t work. It had standing, stinky water in it when we arrived. Tried to run it through a cycle to clear it out. it ran forever then just flashed an error message. So we were forced to hand wash our clothes in the laundry sink until 1 am - in the dark with a cellphone flashlight because the laundry room light was burnt out. Fourth, “River View” is a bit misleading. The windows may face toward the direction of the river, but because you’re on the ground floor (or practically underground on the river side) the windows are at the height of people’s ankles walking by. The view of the river is totally blocked by the brick wall beside the river. If the apartment were higher you would be able to see it, but because it’s on ground level, not so much. I could go on with other little details- bedroom lamp burnt out, water in pitcher in fridge which appeared to be very old….but you get the idea

Very good

The location was great. The unit was clean and comfortable. The manager allowed us to leave the suitcases in the unit until 2 p.m. due to unforeseeable circumstances.

Everything was good. Except, the third bedroom is extremely small with a small double bed with no closet or dresser. We had to place two dining room chairs inside the room to place the suitcases.

Disappointing

Location was convenient. Near Santa Croce. Accommodation were disappointing. It was on the ground floor but the only windows were at street level. The bathroom for two of the bedrooms was on the far end of the apartment, next to the front door. Photos taken made the apartment look bigger than it was.
