Parking lots on outskirts of Florence city center

I n Florence, we are planning to park at Parcheggio del Partere just beyond Piazza della Liberta ( One that Rick Steve’s recommended). We will arrive in morning of June 6, check in to our hotel & stay til late afternoon on June7..... Can we pay for 2 days worth of parking right away , or do we have to go back again in the morning of June 7 to pay for another day? We’re assuming that 1 day of parking means a 24 Hour period- but not sure of that either.
Does anyone know answer to these questions?
Thanks!

This looks like the type where you take a ticket upon entry and pay upon departure (probably before returning to the car). See photos on Google. I used this type in Pisa with no problem. Have cash on hand, since stand-alone machines like this may not work with all US credit cards.

This is the easiest and most economical parking facility in Florence, it even has its own exit.
The tram will whisk you into town to Firenze SM Novella station, and you won't have to worry about ZTLs or bus lane fines.

Where are you staying exactly? Maybe there are better options closer to your accommodations, if you’d like to share the name of the hotel you have booked.

Relais Grand Tour is where I’m staying between train station & Accademia. Google maps is showing Parcheggio del Partere is a 14 min walk to that B&B- so that seems fairly close- but I’m open to other suggestions if they’re closer.

This is the company that runs public parking lots:

The Parterre location is the cheapest (about 20 min walk).
It’s a public pay multistory (underground) parking structure that is open 24/7.

If you want something closer, this is a private garage, actually 2 garage locations both located close to your B&B. The daily parking fee is higher however.
