Foresteria Gavazzeni

Great location, safe, clean and awesome host

I stayed just for one night, so it's gonna be more like a first impression. It's a very humble overnight place for tired or "topographically agnostic" people, like me. From the Bergamo railway station, turn left and follow the "shortcut" for pedestrians and buckles with red and white markings to reach the other side. Turn right and a 1-2 minute walk, it's just on your right. I got lost because the bus driver left me somewhere else than my stop, so I got late because my phone was on low battery and navigation gave me a headache, I mean dragging my luggage around the busy area and was 1 hour late! Luckily, this wonderful mistress, who has been texting me for a while, wrote "I see you!" and walked up to the street to pick me up. She welcomed me in and guided me to my room. I apologized for being so late but she kindly wished me goodnight, instead. The next morning, I woke up happy to have my breakfast. A couple of "nonnas" greeted me warmly, and got a friendly handshake from the master. My experience was overall great. This is a small family business, obviously. And, I would like you to support it. Sometimes, all we need as a traveller, is just a welcoming host, who provides us with a good night's rest and a breakfast the next morning that fuels our adventure ahead!

Despite being near the railway station, it still seems to be somewhat hidden.

It is really close to the Bergamo train station (5 min walk). Great spot. The breakfast was tasty. And they held my bag during the day while I was riding a bike. I'd highly reccomend.

The breakfast starts at 7.30 and it was very unfortunate as I needed to leave at this time or earlier both days I stayed at the property. Since the breakfast was included in the price I found it unpleasant.
