We had a really nice stay here. It is easy to get to Milano, Bergamo, Brescia and Cremona from here. We can recommend to visit to old town of Bergamo. It's a bit touristy, but very beautiful.
Nearby there's a restaurant at Ostello Molino di Basso. It's nice and cheap
Beware that the nearest supermarket is about 6-7 km away. There once was a supermarket in the city, but it is closed now.
