Clavinova

Clavinova: Lombardy

Even though the historic centre, and the old fashion district, are a little way away from Clavinova, we think the location is one of the big draws of the flat. Tortona is very cool, with several museums, most notably the Mudec, Italy’s answer to the MoMA. It’s on the top floor of the building, which makes for a view that stretches for miles. It’s not exactly the Manhattan skyline, but it’s nice all the same. Similarly, the interior could do with livening up a bit, but it’s very comfortable, and enormous to boot.


Home truths:
*The lift only goes up to the floor below so you'll have to take the stairs from there
*There are no curtains, just shutters on the outside
*You can connect a streaming account to the TV, but it'll have to be your own
*The dining chairs outside are plastic patio furniture – not the highest quality
*Two people can sleep on a sofa bed in the living room, and there's also a single bed tucked away behind the screen in the corner
*A tram goes past, so there might be some noise from that
*The shower's only 180cm high – tall people will have to duck a bit
