We had five wonderful days in Bergamo and surroundings, not least thanks to the beautiful, spacious and well-equipped apartment of Marzio - a very wonderful, courteous and sympathetic host, by the way, with whom communication was fast and smooth. Best of all, he and his nephew played along perfectly with a surprise for my daughter.
The apartment is in a good location to explore Bergamo on foot, just 10 min walk from the train station and 5 min walk from a large and very good supermarket.
However, if you are looking for absolute silence, this is not the place for you. Unfortunately, with the windows open, you can sometimes hear planes arriving and departing until after midnight, as well as trains from the nearby railroad tracks (and sometimes city cleaning vehicles).
The restaurant tips were a hit: Especially in the "Circolino" in the old town we liked and tasted very well in the large garden. Definitely book in advance!
