Staying with Paola was delightful from start to finish. She's a warm, thoughtful and professional host, and a really great person. Plus, she offers 'location, location, location' - I felt blessed to have the privilege of staying in her tastefully appointed home, and her internal balcony area really added to the sense of space and ambience. The patisserie next door is mind-blowing for coffee and superb sweets. Paola very kindly let me do a load of washing, and store my luggage for a few hours after check-out. I loved the sound of the bells every 15 mins, and I felt very at home. I would have stayed with Paola for a week if I could. Really appreciated Paola's gentle personality, great conversation, her lovely place, the amazing location, and beautiful Bergamo. Also loved the fresh air through the bedroom window, and even the stylish bed lamps. I highly recommend Paola's place to those who appreciate and respect heritage and the Italian way of life.
