2/10 Poor

Looked good online, but not close up
The site said that it was three star. It was really a one star. You could tell that the building was once really nice place to stay. But the owners have not kept up the building. Poor paint, cracking walls, and the floors badly need refinishing. The room had dated decor, and there was a strange sliding door to the bathroom, which did not totally cover the doorway. The entire room was poorly cleaned, with gum under one of the lamp shades, hairs in the bathroom and on the plate, and the plastic (yes, plastic!) mugs had lipstick residue from the last user. The receptionist was very helpful with check in, and some advise on what to go to in the town, but was not in the building at check in. The A/C did not work, and was not fixed in the time we were there. It has so much potential, and all of the pieces are there, but there needs to be a lot more detail in the cleaning, upgrading, and decor. The room did have a small fridge, which did make it easy to keep food. I would not stay here again until I thought that the problems were rectified.

Lovely hotel
I thought the hotel was very pretty and the staff were great. The air conditioning in the room was not great though. The centre of Lucca was within an easy walking distance.

Basic but clean
We have stayed here several times over the last 7 years and I would have to say it is not as good as it used to be. Staff are very friendly and check-in was quick. The room on the first floor was basic but had clean linen and a comfy bed. Breakfast was extremely basic and when we left we went for a decent coffee and pastry at a cafe bar round the corner. It is located on a side street outside of the city walls but quick and easy to walk into central Lucca.

Huge rooms, great value
This hotel was great, the room was huge and really nice. It didn't even feel like a hotel, more like a mini-house. It was walking distance from the city centre and was in a good neighbourhood. The breakfast in the morning was homemade and really good and in the cute courtyard. The staff was very helpful and friendly as well. I'd recommend it to anyone!

Great Location
We arrived In Lucca using the train from Pisa. We walked from the station to the hotel along the Lucca walls which took about 15 mins which was lovely. The hotel is in a great location only taking 5 mins to walk into Lucca. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. Bedding and towels changed daily. Breakfast was good your typical continental. We would use this hotel again as it made our stay enjoyable.

Good rooms but the owners don't really care.
There's no reception that is open. Hard to find. Had to call for them to open the door. When I got to the hotel early they informed me the room wasn't ready to come back at 2pm. When I came back at 2 the staff lady (who was the nice one) told me that actually I was in another hotel a few blocks away. I clearly reserved the leoni hotel and had the reservation printed out. She then called the owner who told her that no I was in the other hotel. I had to explain that I booked based on location and pictures and that I didn't feel comfortable going somewhere else I didn't know and had never seen. She called him again and this time he told her to give me room no. 1. The room was nice and comfortable. It was somewhat clean. The floors needed a little mopping.. But fine. After all day walking around I came back to the hotel and there was some sort of party going on the backyard. Some people singing really loud. I didn't complain until it was about 11:30pm and someone started playing some kind saxophone.. Right under my door that opened to the small backyard. When I called the number I had for the reception (because there is no "reception") the owner picked up. Took them about an hour to stop the noise and turns out it was him and his family/friends who were in the backyard.. I'm not sure what he's thinking but it didn't feel that he took his business seriously. Oh and the breakfast is not included in this B&B..(what????) should not be called b&b at all.

Comfortable, rustic and so convenient
Just five minutes walk from Lucca city walls. On street parking - free down one side of the road. Our downstairs room (no.2) opened onto a communal terrace. Very high ceiling, air conditioning, refrigerator & kettle in the room. Breakfast - croissant, cereal, melba toast etc. then coffee, tea and juice or water served in a basement room a bit like a wine cellar! Clean room, all electrics worked, wifi okay.

basic hotel
Room very basic and simple. No information (code) for Wifi given. There's a walk into town of approx 15 minutes. The road in front of the hotel is strongly frequented by ambulances/polices cars. So prepare yourself to listen to the siren at any time.

Great location and very nice stuff
The hotel is a short walk to the information office and the old town. The stuff was great. I overslept for breakfast but they left my everything waiting for me. You do have to pay for breakfast which I am not sure it was worthed the 6euros.

Cheap B&B close to Lucca
Very nice B&B, close to Lucca walled city. 5 mins walk max. Stayed on top floor with beautiful wooden beams. Comfortable and clean room. Shower is in room which may put some off but was fine for us. Office has limited hours, and breakfast was not included in out rate and we chose to have it in the city. Everything done on check in and office was not open when we left at 10, so left keys in door when leaving. Owners live down stairs so was able to leave our luggage in the locked office and pick it up at 12 prior to leaving Lucca.

Great location, but that's it!
It might say B n B but if you want breakfast it costs an extra 5€. We had # 4 with a king bed, and bunkbeds. The kingbed is worn flat on the sides and still high in the center so it is like sleeping on a little hill. Which is too bad because it was a very comfy mattress. Wifi is terrible, we were rarely with service, or the signal strength was so weak we couldn't access internet or send/receive email. Property is completely unmanned after about 6pm, until service staff who come in about 7am. When we arrived about 4pm another couple was standing on the stoop in the rain and had been waiting 40+ minutes for someone to come let them in. Our fridge didn't work, and the shower head attachment was broken so that you had to hold it with one hand and shower with the other, thankfully my hubby was able to repair it. Property is basic and economy. Tiny shower with 11 inch opening. There was ample hot water, and little squeeze packets of shampoo were available. Property is a smoking property even though they say the 'rooms' are non smoking. Consequently you frequently have smoke smell in your room, especially if like our room the a/c won't blow and you need the windows open. Have no clue what the breakfast is like since it is served on the patio and I refused to walk through the smokers to check it out. Location is convenient to city walls and historic city. Nice neighborhood with restaurants and food store. Eva, super sweet and helpful. I would not return to this BnB.

Good for a one night stay
Hotel was very convenient to Lucca and that's what we wanted. Everything was fine, but nothing to write home about and certainly not someplace you'd want to hang around. But we had limited time to see Lucca, which was fantastic, and this hotel was in a good location and was very inexpensive.

Good location, pity about the hotel
The hotel was clean and the staff were really, really nice (couldn't speak very much English but shame on us for not speaking Italian). However, Room 108 is tiny, beams which you hit your head off, window shutter doesn't work properly, shower you have to use one hand to hold it (also cublcle tiny). Sorry, wish could give a better review.

Close to Lucca
The hotel is relatively basic with few services, but the location is great being so close to the walled city of Lucca, it is clean and there is plenty of free parking in the surrounding streets. I would avoid the breakfast as it is average plus there is a great cafe just around the corner.

Great location in Lucca
Great location as 5 minutes from one of the entrances to Lucca. Very little english spoken by staff, but still helpful. Room was very big, but the tiniest shower. Even my skinny husband found it hard to shower. Considering the bathroom/room was fairly spacious, they should really consider putting in a bigger shower. Despite the shower, excellent location for the price paid, as hotels within the walls a lot dearer.

Great location, decent accommodation
The hotel location is at an excellent location, within a short walking distance of the city center. The area is not very touristy and one can enjoy coffee shops and bakeries with other locals. The rooms are comfortable, nothing great and the breakfast is sparse. I would recommend eating at one of the coffee places nearby. The staff are nice and accommodating. Overall a nice experience. Great value for money.

Lots of character!
This is a beautiful hotel. We stayed in room 9 on the top floor, which is a beautiful romantic bedroom with a kingsize bed, orthopaedic mattress and gorgeous wooden beams. The bathroom and shower were very clean (although the shower was in the actual bedroom, which I wasn't a fan of). We arrived at the hotel at 1pm but found it difficult to find where reception was as it was inside the building, not 3 metres away as suggested by the sign outside. Once in reception, it was easy to check in and as we were early and our room wasn't ready, staff gave us a room that was already made, which was really helpful. You can choose to have breakfast there (it is 5 euros per person) but we didn't so I can't unfortunately comment on the food. When we checked out in the morning, no one was at reception and I couldn't find anyone in the breakfast room. We started to worry a bit as we had to rush to get our train. After 5 minutes, someone arrived so we checked out successfully. Friendly staff. Would recommend for a short stay and particularly for couples as it's very beautiful and romantic!

ok for an overnight stay, not for any longer
on arrival mid afternoon we couldnt gain access to the property, which we found a bit disturbing, a lady from a nearby launderette finally got the owners on the phone and we were let in.The person we spoke to at the hotel was not interested on our arrival, just handed keys over, we never saw anybody else during our five night stay, only the young girl dealing with the buffet breakfast in the mornings, she was very nice,maid service was ok, she was nice too.Overall i personally would not stay here again, the room itself was ok but all the property needs a good clean!!!!
