Livorno is an Italian port city on the west coast of Tuscany. It's known for its seafood, Renaissance-era fortifications and modern harbor with a cruise ship port. Its central Terrazza Mascagni, a waterside promenade with checkerboard paving, is the city's main gathering place. The bastions of the 16th-century Fortezza Vecchia face the harbor and open onto Livorno's canal-laced Venezia Nuova quarter. (Wikipedia)

#Livorno
Beautiful square overlooking the sea, with its very special black and white checkered floor, is one of the most beautiful places in Livorno. The Terrace – named after the Livornese composer Pietro Mascagni – has a very special architecture: the floor is a 8,700 square meter chessboard, made up of over 34,000 white and black tiles, and the balustrade made up of 4,000 columns separates the square from the sea.

Wonderful staff, friendly and always helpful. Restaurant is outstanding, every dish was delicious. Room was very roomy, had updated bathroom and great views of the sea from the balcony. Plenty of parking included. Quiet location, with only the sound of the sea and wind.

I would stay here again. Nice place. Didn’t get to use the pool (December). Had a coin laundry in the car box (parking garage) that was reasonable compared to other places on my travels in Italy.
