Lucca In Verona: San Stefano Bed and Breakfast

San Stefano Bed and Breakfast is beige building (former monastery) in front of Cathedral 

Marietta is ready for a night on the town. You need to cross the wonderful Ponte Pietra - a pedestrian bridge- into the oldest part of the city of Verona. Lucca and his wife own the bed and breakfast in this old converted monastery. He did not speak much English nor do I speak much Italian, but we got along well. He was a great host and even volunteered to do our laundry - when returned, it was on hangers or folded in brown paper! When it came time to pay, I expected to pay him 200 Euros for each night's lodging. "No" he explained, "200 Euros for the whole stay." First time I ever tipped an owner of a bed and breakfast. See my long review on TripAdvisor.
