Honestly, the pictures do not do it justice. Luca's apartment is designer fantastic. Very well appointed with everything you might need. Even the building itself is spectacular. We were greeted by Jimmy the doorman, who cheerfully got us upstairs. Plenty of towels, cooking utensils, basic spices, etc. Americans may need to check YouTube for how to use some of the appliances, but IMHO that is what the interwebs are best at. The location is terrific, in the old part of the city on one of the main avenues--handy location if you are on foot like we were.
