Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We really enjoyed our stay. The accommodation was very stylish and functional. Communication was good and check-in was easy. One small complaint, not the fault of property, is that it is situated next to a bakery which starts working very early. Probably not an issue with all suites. Once we figured out, went back to sleep.

Huge thank you to owner who is invested in this small business with passion caring and inspiration. Lovely personal touches. Daily presence and information regarding contacts and places to go, with tips and suggestions (such as reservations for lunch to ensure table), and many other local tips. Beautifully clean every day with details - lovely

Brief but comfortable stay in lovely Lucca
We stayed only one night during our day-and-a-half in Lucca. Wish it could have been longer! We had a wonderful experience in Lucca and staying at Inside the Wall. Rebecka was a friendly host and checked us in efficiently while engaging in warm conversation. Our room was lovely, and the location was convenient.

Worst “hotel” experience in a 7 week trip
This is not a hotel. You are only renting a room. It is a very small room. It is also quite noisy and you can hear people in other rooms very easily, and I don’t have very good hearing. It is basically self check in, This location offers no help or amenities. If you want to leave a bag either before check in or after check out you’re out of luck they won’t help you at all. We had better luck with the café down the street who generously let us leave a bag in a secure location for free. We found the owner/mgr to be rude and condescending.

We had a fabulous stay. Rebecka was a great host and helpful before and during our stay. The location of this property is a perfect base for exploring the city. It is beautifully decorated, spotlessly clean and bright and airy even though it is such an old building. The bed was comfy, the shower was great and the toiletries smelled amazing. We wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again when we return to Lucca. Everything was perfect
