Our only issue was the water pressure in both of the showers. It was dire and really needs looking at.

Everything went very smoothly from booking through departure. We were there during the summer concert season and at night we would open our bedroom window and let the music drift in. House was well stocked and management easy to communicate with. Convenient to everything. You should be comfortable with stairs as there are quite a few. Was t an issue for us, but something you should know. We would rent again.

Excellent experience, amazing apartment, stairs are long but very easy. My friends were over 60 years ago and they enjoyed a lot. Basically best apartments are at high floors in Lucca. La Guardia is one of those.

Probably the biggest hidden gem inside Lucca. You need to book it. Aside from the amazing photos of the place. It’s inside the tower. You and your people would love it!

This is a beautiful and spacious apartment to stay in in Lucca. I stayed with my husband and two adult daughters and we were very comfortable. The location is great, it is in the old town and only a few minutes walk from all the main sights. Plenty of restaurants very nearby - you can see 4 from the windows and the food is delicious in all of them! If you want to cook at the apartment the kitchen is well equipped with pans/cutlery/crockery etc. The apartment has unusual and quirky rooms in a medieval tower, very nicely presented with comfortable beds and beautiful views over the roof tops. There is air conditioning which considering the heat of an Italian summer we were very grateful for. Because it is high it is also very quiet but there are quite a few steps to the front door. There is also a laundry room which is really useful. Would definitely recommend the apartment and would stay here again!
