Alitalia Michelangelo Lounge

The checkin agent directed me to make a right after security towards the lounge. I presented my invitation to the agent and she invited me in. The wifi password was posted at the front as well. The lounge was on the small side with tan furniture. Outlets were scarce. The lounge had some racks of Italian magazines but the only English option was Global Traveler. The men's bathroom contained 3 rooms of which 2 were out if order. Outlets were scarce but I managed to find 4 against one wall in the corner. In terms of food, there was packaged cookies, chips and crackers. There were also packaged sandwiches in a fridge. I didn't see what they were but they didn't seem appetizing. They looked old. There was a small self serve bar with plastic drink ware Standard cheap and boring alcohol as well as some wine was on offer. There was a fridge with cans of soda, tonic, and Arizona iced tea. (First time I've seen Arizona in a lounge). There was also an espresso machine and a fridge with some juice. No glass or ceramic drink ware in sight which isn't a big deal, but to me seems shoddy for an international business class/gold card lounge. The Lufthansa lounge down the hall was slated to open at 12pm so at about 1155 I went down there.
