Luca's place is yet to reach it's full potential, a beautiful stonebased kitchen ensemble is a wonderful feature of the apartment and whilst the bathroom has new tiling there are many faults, there is no shelf for shampoo/soap within the shower, the bathroom door scrapes on the tiles, the flusher cover mechanism is loose and falls off the wall, some of the tiles are cracked and the cutting of others is not professional, some of the floor tiles have what appear to be glue marks on them and most importantly the lower sliders in the shower recess need a very thorough clean.
The bed is wonderful. The wardrobe hanging space is not defined and I felt I was invading the occupants personal space. Also in the bedroom you get to share with an old ladder and a door that has been taken off elsewhere in the apartment and is awaiting glass replacement.
In the kitchen the window handle has not been screwed on and comes off. There is no kettle/jug to boil water for tea. The dead pot plants on the balcony need discarding.
The front door lock has been replaced but now holes are obvious , this needs a brass plate to cover. The curtains in the apartment are not adequate, there is one drape on each window which do not cover the area, two drapes are needed.
Having said this the apartment is extrememly quite and whilst it is located in a graffiti riddled area (not uncommon in Milan) it has many fabulous restaurants and on the last Sunday I was there they had an enormous antiques market which was a real buzz. Transport is at hand and shopping within walking distance. I also walked to the Duomo from the apartment.
