As serial remodelers, we were impressed with Cristiana's full reno of an old building steps from the Citta' Alta. Everything is new, clean, up to date, comfortable bed, nice AC in these hot August temperatures. It's easy to see why Cristiana is a super host; she is organized, helpful, an enthusiastic ambassador of her lovely hometown of Bergamo, and a proud property owner and hostess. She really has thought of everything to make your visit homey and welcoming. The Citta Alta is a 10-minute walk uphill from the building and it is a must see. Wear sneakers though, get a 30 minute incline workout, stop at the Basilica Santa Maria Maggiore, then go have some delicious Bergamo food at one of the restaurants recommended by Cristiana.
