I stayed in Bergamo with my two teenage daughters altogehter five nights in early October and we were very satisfied with our stay at Ca' Mairù. The apartment is in good location within a short walk to the old town Città Alta and it's easy to take also the bus to the lower town, e.g. to the railway station (as we visited Milan by train twice). Cristina is an excellent hostess, easy to reach and available for advice, whenever needed, as well as handles everything very professionally. The apartment, as well as the whole house is renewed not so long ago and the apartment has all the basic things you need, including small kitchen with tableware and equipment (and with Italian coffee machine!). A nice addition is also an in-house lift even if there is only three floors, so not only those who have heavy luggage but also anyone with e.g. baby carriage or wheelchair can reach any floor easily. We had also rented the car and, as expected, tight parking is an exciting experience in Italy :-). Luckily there is different type of parking places nearby, so with a little search you can find also more spaceful ones (e.g. close to the beginning of the nature track, ~150 m down from the apartment). Again, Cristina advised also in this, like with many other matters, so don't hesitate to ask her for tips in case you feel puzzled with something. My teenagers were not so happy in waking up after 7 am to the church bells (ringing after each half an hour at the other side of the road) but also they were getting used those after the first morning. Since we were leaving the city very early on the morning, Cristina arranged us also the transportation to the airport. All-in-all we had a very nice time and were happy to experience our independent stay in the city, as being part of the inhabitants of the neighbourhood. Thanks, Cristina!
