Ivonne's home was a like home for the wealthy Venetian aristocrat! I was very fortunate to have a chance to live like one! I love old and heritage buildings and we have lost practically all the colonial buildings in my city, Hong Kong thanks to real estate development and growth of population. Ivonne's house was huge with at least 4 to 5 rooms and I know I would never be able to afford such a home in my life.
There are however two points that could be improved: (i) the breakfast was very simple espresso coffee, hot milk, packed toast and plastic packed croissant. I would have hoped that Ivonne would buy a capsule Nespresso machine, offer to prepare something hot such as scrambled eggs and fresh toast and fresh fruit juices; and (ii) the hot water supply in the bathroom was intermittent and I need to shower super fast (3 minutes) otherwise will have to sit and wait for a while for another supply of hot water from the tab. But this is understandable give the age of the house.
