As we were going to Italy in July, and read news reports about a heatwave, we condidered cancelling the trip. However, as all places bookef had air-conditioning, we decided to go anyway.
As we arrived in Bergamo, we were increadibly disappointed to discover that the apartment did not actually have AC. With daytime temperatures approaching 40C, and night-temperatures in the flat at 33C and high humidity, nights were about surviving till day, not relaxing.
When we asked the owner about the lack of AC, the answer was that this should come as no surprise, as other reviewers had also commented on this. But the description clearly states AC, and this is what we had checked.
So, to make it easy for others to spot this review, I'm giving it a single star.
Apart from this, the flat is nice, fairly well equipped, easily accessed, clean and modern in effectively the best part of Bergamo to be located: middle of lower Bergamo's "old" town. 10 min walk from train station, a pleasant walk to upper Bergamo, lots of shops and restaurants. The street noise at night was not overly high, despite restaurants just below the flat.
