Location very central. I love the big balcony and everything functional although the interior of room appears aged and tired. Cleanliness ok. The price is excellent. I also love the buffet breakfast which is very delicious. Highly recommended.

The hotel it’s located downtown within walking distance from places of interest. The metro station of Sedrica is about a couple of minutes walk away.

Location is top of the consideration. Centre located that you can walk to most popular attraction. Metro or tram is very close within steps. Hotel is partly renovated. I believe it will be amazing when finished. Breakfast is not included. 15 Lev per person with small buffet that you can choose most popular items, ie, eggs, ham, sausages, breads or cereals. But they are not very hot on the warmers. However, I would still recommend people to go there for sleep and shower. Room was big enough and balcony overlook the city. Price is very good compare to same standard 3 stars hotel. Staff speaks reasonable English that is convenient. Good luck!

I was put in the old floor but my friend was put in the newly renovated floor on the 6th floor which I was very disappointed with. Not satisfied.

It is located in the center of Sofia. It is close to tourist attractions and downtown. The location was excellent. However, the rooms were old and the amenities were poor. It was a bit disappointing.

Rude staff, not welcoming at all, very rude on checkout. Beds so firm in the ‘renovated’ room so I dread to think how bad they are in the other options, poor facilities. Air conditioning wouldn’t work, no spoons for the coffee making facilities. Wouldn’t recommend
