The town is nice and peaceful. Has a lot markets, restaurants & cafe nearby. The host was on a holiday when I arrived but he had his daughter show me the place and still was a fantastic hostess. I was still able to communicate with no issues. I didn’t really focus much in Bergamo for my 4 days of stay. I was mainly walking around Milan & Genoa. Location was perfect! Its literally a 10 minute walk to the train station. From there you can easily take the bus to go to the airport in 10 mins, the train to Milan takes less than an hour & Genoa in 2.5hr. All utensils, pits & pans, and plates & cups are already provided if you plan on cooking any meals. My overall stay was amazing! Everyday my feet would be hurting from all the walking I’ve done!
