Great Location

This property is in a great location. The apartment is lovely and as depicted in photos. However, be aware that the bathrooms appear much larger in the photos. The second bedroom bathroom shower is very very small. The shower stall measures approximately 26" x 26". The shower in the master bathroom requires you to step into an elevated tub that isn't easy especially if you are older. My suggestion to management is to install some grab bars for safety. We did have to have the small lightbulbs in both bathrooms (over the sink) replaced as they kept flickering. By the end of our stay they had blown out again. Electricity and water pressure are an issue in Italy. But, with that said, we love Italy and plan on visiting again but I will take more care when inquiring about the shower situation. Sonia, who checked us in was wonderful and very responsive as well as Manual when Sonia was not available.

Excellent apartment and location, location, location!

Three of us stayed at this wonderful, well-appointed “Renaissance” style apartment, within the historic walls of Lucca. From the Frescos on the ceilings to the view of the church and piazza, everything was fabulous. The Puccini concert evenings are held right in the piazza on the apartment doorstep - could faintly hear the opera with the living room window open! Fabulous memory!

Great place but a little noisy

This was a beautiful apartment and a beautiful city. If you’re looking for serenity and peace, you may not find it. The Piazza in front of the apartment was very busy and there were very loud people outside the apartment until after midnight most nights. Other than that, it was a very nice place. The staff was also wonderful. We arrived very late because of a missed flight, but instead of letting us rent a hotel for the night they met us that anyway. I highly recommend renting properties from this company.

Perfect location in Lucca

We stayed at this lovely historical apartment with our family and for for almost 3 weeks. When we booked it, we had no idea the Lucca Summer Music Festival was happening. What a treat to be able to hear the bands from the windows of the apartments and enjoy listening at the café around the corner. The apartment is equipped with everything you need for a long stay and was nicely decorated. We did have an issue with the air conditioning in the master bedroom, not working as well as the other units but were appreciative to Elizabeth and Alice for helping to get it fixed. They were also extremely helpful with any needs that we had. Will definitely stay here or in another property that belongs to Lucca Apartments and Villas again.

Enjoyable 10 day stay in Lucca

We enjoyed our stay at this Lucca apartment. The property was very clean and comfortable for our 10-day vacation. The location was terrific, a short walk to the wall, to the train station, and only a few steps to the center of town. The church in this Piazza offers wonderful Puccini concerts not to be missed.

Lucca with family

This apartment has an amazing location! Steps away from everything. Easy 10 min or less walk to the train station to go on outings for the day. Plenty of room for 4 of us. Sonia met us at the apartment so check in was easy and no stress and it was very easy to communicate with Sonia and the office.

A perfect place to explore perfect Lucca

The apartment was perfectly located to allow us to explore Lucca, and it’s surroundings. We adapted easily to the quirks of living like a local in a traditional home and loved our Lucca experience so much more because of this. Perfetto.

Family holiday in Lucca

We had an excellent family holiday in the apartment. There were 2 adults and 2 teenagers. The apartment is perfectly located for enjoying Lucca centre, within walking distance of plenty of restaurants and shops and a stones throw from the cathedral. There is no parking at the apartment due to the ztl but we parked at the Cittadella parking which was a 5 minute walk away with easy access in and out of the town. We purchased a monthly pass on the first day for €50. I would highly recommend this apartment as an ideal base for exploring Lucca but also Tuscany.

Enjoyed every minute in our apartment in Lucca

The building is obviously old and that has to be taken into account. But that too gives it a wonderful appeal. Its location inside the walls of the old city is fantastic - close to restaurants and cafes (our favorite cafe, Buralli), the historic Walls and all the lovely sites Lucca has on offer. We found a supermarket and laundromat nearby - everything is within easy walking distance. The apartment itself had comfortable beds and furniture. It oozed charm. We did a little cooking for ourselves and the kitchen equipment was in good order. Because we were athere for some time, lovely ladies came to change bed linen and towels and cleaned once a week. We enjoyed our stay here for the 17 nights we were there and would recommend a stay there.

Nice place in a great town!

We booked this apartment and loved everything it had to offer. It is in an old building, but the place is huge and really great. The beds were comfortable and the it was spotlessly clean. It's not the most modern, but it had all the amenities. We used the apartment in Lucca as a base for our "day trips" to other places during our 4 day stay. Lucca is a great town with great restaurants and a lot to do. It was very cool in the apartment and felt good to relax when we had been out in very hot weather. In addition, the wash machine came in handy so we didn't have sweaty and smelly clothes to pack in our bags. We did not cook meals at the apartment. I was unable to find any silverware, which was odd, but it had many other items you would use to cook with. You cannot use more than one big appliance at a time due to how old the building and electrical wiring was, but that was not an issue with our family. Overall, we had a nice stay in a clean and cool apartment during the heat of the summer. The location is also pretty great. Thank you!

Great location and apartment

Sonia was very easy to work with. The apartment is beautiful and makes you feel like you are living hundreds of years in the past in luxury housing. The only difference is that you have all of the modern conveviences. We paid for the weekly parking pass at Mazzini garage and taxied on arrival and departure due to luggage. Otherwise we walked 20 minutes to garage when we were going out of walled area. Close to the wall, towers, train station and dining which we walked to all. We had a great stay.

This property might have once been beautiful...certainly is not anymore!

On first entering the apartment the rooms were large with some nice furnishings. On closer inspection the floors were filthy our feet were black. Large cobwebs in the kitchen near the floor which had obviously been there quite awhile. Many of the light fixtures had burnt out lights. The bathrooms were clean but the shower curtain in the smaller of the two rooms was not. The sheets were clean but the bedspreads were not. The larger bedroom was nice but the smell of sewar gas in the bathroom was disgusting. We were told by the woman who took us into the unit that we could only use one appliance at a time so you could not make coffee and run a hair dryer at the same time or the power would go out. The washer was definitely an asset and the ac worked well. I know we are expected to look after our own suppplies but since we arrived late in the day it would have been nice to have more then just half rolls of toilet paper. A few basic items would have been nice as well. We actually complained to another woman who came to see us as well who became very rude and told us not talk to the first woman we saw. No one ever came to clean the floors so we had to keep our shoes on. I would not recommend this apartment to my worst enemy. I wouldn't stay there even if they gave it to us free!
