Put simply, Oliviero's apartment is the ideal place for a short break in Bergamo. It is located in the attractive, historic upper city in a charming, quiet street that curls round to the cathedral. It is also a few steps to where the funicular stops on its ascent from the more modern lower city; the train station and the big shops are located down there. The apartment is a compact and comfortable space from which the principal sites are reached in next to no time. Oliviero is a good, attentive and informative host. I can think of no reason why a traveller would not be pleased to stay here.
