LUXURY SPACIOUS ANTIQUE APARTMENT WITHIN THE WALLS FACING THE S. GIOVANNI CHURCH

The pictures do not do this apartment justice...it is even more beautiful than shown. The location couldn't be better -- right in the heart of the walled city close to all the attractions and excellent restaurants. The apartment is spacious and clean and beautifully appointed. The wireless works great as well. We loved staying here and will definitely book it again on a return trip to Lucca. Our family has rented homes for many years in Italy, Mexico, Costa Rica, Australia and the United States and this one rates among the best.

Hello Sonia,
We stayed at your lovely apartment in Lucca last month during 19 Jun - 30 Jun. It was probably the best holiday apartment we have ever stayed in and we recommended it to friends. Thank you so much for your warm welcome. It was a pleasure to be greeted by such a warm and welcoming person, and to have such a long talk with you.
We left at 4am on our leaving day, so didn't get time to write you a note but we wanted to let you know that we loved your beautiful apartment and your beautiful city and were sad to be leaving. San Giovanni apartment is a very special place and we hope to return in future. Thank you for everything.
Kind regards
Sharon

We just returned from a two-week stay at St. Giovanni Apartment; it was everything we hoped it would be. But the location--two minute walk to the main shopping area, less than five minutes to the train station--was quite incredible! I think we walked to almost every site in town in less than 10 minutes. We typically walked back to the apartment for lunch and downtime before heading out for the afternoon adventure; it's so close to everything that was no problem at all. The apartment itself is very cozy and comfortable. The two separate bedrooms are wonderful if someone wants to retire sooner than the other. Benedetta has a great library of art and history books that provide hours of entertainment and fill in holes in your knowledge of Lucca’s history. The apartment was very clean and very warm (it was quite cool this time of year in Lucca). Heating was extremely reasonable, just 6 euros daily; less than I expected. Then we did not have to pay for any extra charge. The photos on the web site nicely captured the ambience of the space and appointments--- There is no traffic sound at all as cars are not allowed in this area of the town. We cooked the majority of our meals in the apartment. It was easy and convenient and saved a great deal of expense. All the necessary equipment was there; we just went to local grocery stores every day to buy our food. There's a wonderful Trattoria called Il Cuore (The Heart!) just around the corner of the church in front of the apartment. We had three meals there that were wonderful and the staff was great fun. Not many tourists, just locals. We were very happy at St. Giovanni apartment and quickly settled in. We would highly recommend it.
