@anastasia_neg As a hospitality product it’s very hard to make money on 9 suites.

@jspeiser It basically is common knowledge, but the caveat is it sucks

@Empty_America Lots of people have 4 sugars in their tea and eat Haribo etc. If you have a normal diet and brush, it’s hard to rot them out

@TimurNegru With respect, my family is from the area and I spend summers there regularly cycling to Menton. It is absolutely rammed in summer

@ASFleischman Very interesting! I’ve never thought of the creativity required, thanks for sharing.

@365247Sports @nytimes @TheAthletic @TheAthleticFC AI shite

[Luca @CachiaLuca]

@cschwaigermt Yes, it’s almost common knowledge.

[Luca @CachiaLuca]

@LucaArrigo_ Yes it’s weird and doesn’t work properly.

@Empty_America This is the same in Maltese. Our word for God (Catholic) is Alla. And I assure you we’re real Christians

@marclou @bryan_johnson Your life will be better if you never go through the nightmare of owning a small hotel.

The model sounds like it could work amazingly well as you providing the “event” rather than the real estate side.

So you rent out a villa complex for 2 weeks, get a private chef, sell rooms!

[Luca @CachiaLuca]

@marclou @bryan_johnson This sort of thing already kind of exists. Palazzo Fiuggi is a great example (outside Rome) - they don’t even serve alcohol.

The problem is hospitality is hard but the “health hotel” space is higher margin and growing fast.

@FlashForFreedom The reality is you need both. You don’t want to be wearing padded shoulders whilst having an aperitivo in Portofino.

[Luca @CachiaLuca]

@Besciai @TurnerNovak There is a big secondary market at that size

[Luca @CachiaLuca]

@maxkarpis Not really. The lounges Revolut gives access to via DragonPass tend to be quite crap.

[Luca @CachiaLuca]

@zeroxjackson @app_settings I don’t think you could literally be any more wrong

@salvin_joseph What exactly are sweatpants? Were your employees showing up to work wearing a tracksuit?

@ThomasSankaraWN @AfricanHub_ Did you really need ChatGPT to write this for you?

@thealepalombo It’s because southern Italian has very poor infrastructure + the government doesn’t work at a “local” level.

I have property in both Italy and France - the difference in hassle is huge.
