San Stefano, Verona, Italy


St. Stephan's (San Stefano) in Verona, Italy had a monastery next door.  The church is lovely overlooking the river at Ponte Pietra. The monastery has been converted into a Bed and Breakfast and we really enjoyed it. The owner was gracious, helpful and - it is true - even did our laundry! As well, when I made the reservation I doubled the cost and was willing to pay 400 Euros for two nights lodging as it was a great place - wait - not 200 Euros a night, but 100 Euros a night. Lucca is a great host. Doesn't speak English and I don't speak Italian, but we understood one another very well.
