We had a great week in Lucca.
The apartment was lovely, clean, comfortable and well equipped. Communication with Christina was excellent along with a good recommendation for a taxi to and from Pisa Airport. The central position was very good for exploring Lucca on foot and also peaceful.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
A great place! Just like the photos. In the centre of Lucca. We sat with the front door open and listened to the bands at the festival we were that close.
Well equipped apartment. Property manager was very efficient and friendly.
15 minute walk to the station & 5 minutes walk to the city wall.
Would definitely stay here again.
Casa Mirella is a lovely apartment with convenient access to cafes, restaurants and concert events. We feel fortunate to have stayed there. The Bonus was communication with the Property Management team who was prompt in addressing any of our concerns.

GEM OF AN APARTMENT
Casa Mirella suits our needs perfectly……..located close to shops, cafes and churches. There are no stairs to climb so we can come and go with ease, carrying luggage, groceries or whatever the need.
We also appreciated rapid communication with Cristina who responded to any questions we had she was friendly and professional, never hesitated to make herself available. A wonderful stay!
The apartment was very true to the photos. It was very comfortable and in a great location to get to restaurants, shops, cafes, etc. The kitchen was well-equipped and loved that it had a washer/dryer. I thought it would be noisy because it was on the bus line, but when you closed the shutters at night, it was so quiet, so easy to get a good night's sleep. Loved it, would go back again.

thanks for having us!
We have had a really great time staying at Sonia's apartment. It's really easy to find and in an excellent location. It is only a short 5 minute walk from the train station and it's also really central, surrounded by cafes, restaurants shops and the sites. The apartment itself is true to the photos and is very clean and picturesque. It is also very peaceful, with noise not being a problem. We were met by Mrs Sonia at the apartment who was really helpful and welcoming and told us everything we needed to know including a great place to grab a bite to eat that evening. She made us feel comfortable and told us to contact her if we needed anything. I'd recommend staying here to anyone. Thanks for having us!

Perfect location for exploring Lucca
We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Casa Mirella, and found it to be an ideal location for spending a month in Lucca. It was easy to get to everything we needed. Walking the wall daily was especially nice. The apartment was beautifully decorated and generally comfortable. The shower was wonderful!
Because of much rain as well as the comics event we spent more time inside the apartment than we might otherwise have done. So I’d like to suggest having more comfortable seating would have been appreciated. The sofa was not at all comfortable. The induction stovetop was new to us so better instruction would have helped. We found it quite tricky to use.

A stunning apartment which felt like a home away from home!
We absolutely loved our time at Casa Mirella! The apartment was absolutely gorgeous, and it was full of little details that made it feel like a home away from home! Everything was clean, comfortable, and well-provisioned, and it was a joy to come back to the apartment after a busy day.
The house book was filled with all the information one would need to know about Lucca, and we used that resource a lot.
The location of Casa Mirella is also enviable! Not only is it on the ground floor (which is crucial when travelling with large suitcases) but it is also only a five minute stroll from the south gate (Porta San Pietro), and is also easily accessible to the train station.
Cristina and Michela were wonderful to work with. Being able to communicate directly via WhatsApp was so helpful... especially when our arrival was delayed they very kindly helped us check-in after-hours.
Grazie mille!

Super appartement en plein centre historique de Lucca, totalement au calme. Superbe confort.
Nous avons passé une semaine exceptionnelle à "La Casa Mirella" à Lucca. Tout d'abord parce que Lucca est une superbe ville, avec un centre historique propre et bien entretenu. De très nombreuses rues commerçantes piétonnes, énormément de restaurants en terrasse, absolument tout le commerce nécessaire. Ville très agréable à sillonner en vélo, dans les rues ou sur les pistes cyclables aménagées. La circulation limitée intra-muros est définitivement un vrai bonheur.
L'appartement "La Casa Mirella" nous a apporté plus que nous en attendions. Bien que situé en plein centre, à 50 m de la piazza Napoleone, il est dans une rue très calme. Les fenêtres étant très isolantes, on n'entend absolument aucun bruit à l'intérieur de l'appartement. Et comme la salle à manger / cuisine et la chambre sont bien climatisées, nul besoin d'ouvrir les fenêtres.
L'appartement est très récent, meublé avec goût, tous les équipements fonctionnent et sont en très bon état. Plaques à induction, réfrigérateur - congélateur, four, micro-ondes, lave / sèche linge, lave vaisselle. Coté vaisselle et ustensiles, rien ne manque. Nous n'avions jamais loué un appartement saisonnier aussi bien équipé.
Chambre de grande dimension avec un lit très confortable de 180. Salle de bain de petite dimension, mais très bien équipée, douche à l'Italienne. De nombreuses serviettes et torchons de très bonne qualité sont fournis.
Cette appartement peut contenir 4 personnes, mais nous le conseillons plutôt pour 2 personnes.
Cerise sur le gateau, 2 bicyclettes mises à disposition des locataires. Ce fut vraiment génial de se balader à vélo dans les rues et autour des remparts de Lucca.
Petite contrainte liée à la limitation de la circulation, il faut se garer à l'extérieur du centre historique. Nous avons utilisé le parking gratuit situé à l'angle de la Via Barsanti e Matteuci / Via Delle Tagliate. Compter 20 minutes de marche "piano piano" jusqu'à l'appartement, en passant par les rues piétonnes toujours animées. C'est très agréable et bon pour l'exercice.
Si nous devons revenir en Toscane, c'est définitivement à la Casa Mirella que nous reviendrons.

Alles top
Alles top, tolle Wohnung, tolle Stadt. Leider keine Möglichkeit, wenigstens zum Be- und Entladen des Gepäcks, die Altstadt zu befahren. Tipp für Parken: innerhalb Stadtmauer Citadella - aber Zone 8 - 20 Uhr. Ist günstiger, da nur 12 statt 24 Stunden wie nebenan mit Schranke abgerechnet werden. Bei Ausflügen zahlt man ggf. nur noch für ein paar Abendstunden die Parkgebühren.
This apartment is in an excellent location within Lucca. The apartment itself is immaculate and has everything you need for a very comfortable stay. This was our second stay at Casa Mirella. Will be booking our next stay at this apartment.
