La casetta di morena

Purtroppo pessima esperienza. Casa curata ma solo nelle apparenze. Umida, calda e con seri problemi di muffa e cattivo odore. Essendo asmatica ho dovuto lasciare l'appartamento dopo la prima notte. L'host ha risposto gentilmente ai miei messaggi ma senza trovare una risoluzione alle problematiche. Mi dispiace molto lasciare questa recensione ma la casa richiede più cure e attenzioni. Se non avete particolari pretese la sua posizione è accettabile.

The location was central. Powerful A/c's since we visited during a heatwave.

The neighbourhood is shabby as is the house which is much different from the photos in the listing. Basic things such as washing liquid were missing, not to mention the bottle of wine mentioned in the listing. Breakfast includes only one food item and one drink from a bar close by. No bbq and the yard was shabby. There were even dangerous live wires hanging out of the wall. To close it off, we spent 2 nights and found a cockroach on each night...

The master bedroom was good with a big closet. Kitchen was large but not well equipped. Level entry. Looked great in the pictures. There was a washing machine. The host provided a lovely breakfast which was a 3 minute walk away, but was not easy to find.

It was described as a 2 bedroom, but the 2nd bedroom was the living room (where you entered the unit) with a pull out sofa, with no closet or privacy. The kitchen was missing some basics even though it was large. The separate laundry room was sort of an outside room but with an awning and had a foul smell. The ac/heater did not work in the master bedroom. The unit needed some maintenance attention.

Probably the proximity of the church with the painting of Caravaggio.... The catacombs also can be reached by foot. Small food shop is very close. Parking wasn't a big problem.

The owner speaks no language exept Italian. There was no kettle and no iron. We hardly found two different tea cups in entirely different places... Early in the morning we asked for a kettle and one more cup. The owner, who works in the cafe 300 m. away (and were you have your breakfast) brought some cups at 15:30, right in the time we took a short nap after excursions. The kettle and the iron never came... The breakfast actually is a pastry and a drink, but there was no information (and nobody told us this also on check-inn) that the cafe is closed on Mondays! Just imagine when you are comming to eat quickly before checking-out and a long trip and find out that it's their day off! It was good that the target wasn't airport that day, as we were half an hour late! As for the apartment itself: 1. It isn't a two-bedroom one! One of the beds appeared to be a sofa-bed standing at the entrance, so there was no place to sit except the kitchen; 2. An attempt to create cheap chic, but the cleaning is on a very low level (it was really unpleasant to open the shelves in the kitchen). 3. You can hear the neighbours (as well as the street) very well and they are pretty noisy. The district is unpleasant: dirty and smelly. We were happy that the stay was short.

Breakfast was taken in a coffee bar and the products were tasty.

We ended up at this location by mistake and stayed because the owner didn't want to refund our money. Unfortunately, we didn't look at the other people's reviews either, only at the high score it has on booking, namely 8.6. we arrived at 23:00 at the location, right from the entrance we were hit by a musty smell that was everywhere on the walls and ceilings. In the bathroom, the shower tub is rusty, there is mold on the shower screen, the toilet bowl was dirty, the faucet in the sink was broken and rusty. There were also cockroaches in the bedroom. Lucky I only stayed one night. I certainly do not recommend and advise the owner to make the necessary improvements so that this apartment can be used under normal conditions.

breakfast was a short walk to a cafe .... breakfast was choice of a pastry and a beverage Air Conditioner worked

bathroom was in need of repairs - mold growing in the shower stall no shampoo or shower soap
