Carla and her husband Ivan were amazing hosts. They were very helpful and communicative. Upon arrival into Lovere from Bergamo, despite a glitch in travel, Ivan happily picked us up and was even kind enough to wait for us whilst we stopped and bought some groceries from the shops as there are not many in Riva di Solto.
Ivan was very nice and extremely helpful as he drove us around Riva di Solto and told us what was where. He also gave us a quick tour of the apartment. Carla also very kindly prepared us breakfast including fruit juice, milk, teas, croissants and fruits such as bananas and nectarines - this was unbelievably nice of her.
The place is absolutely amazing and the view is breathtaking.
Would definitely come to Riva di Solto again and also recommend this place. Although as word of warning: the apartment resides uphill but not too far up, so expect a lot of walking!
The village is so so nice, beautifully scenic and tranquil. I would recommend Caffe del Porto for drinks and ice cream. Very cheap and lovely! Be sure to organise transport as there is very little.
