The hotel is centrally located. Everything you need is nearby. The receptionist helped us with our luggage. Our sheets were clean, but the hotel is old and neglected. I don't know if the heater wasn't working or not, but we turned on the air conditioner. The hair dryer in the room wasn't working. And water was leaking from somewhere; the bathroom floor was covered in water

Decor in need of major refurbishment, tired colours. Beds very comfy and linen was clean. No lifts.
PROS: centrally located to everything and transportation; they allowed me to check in at 10:00 a.m. instead of waiting until 2:00 p.m. at no extra charge. CONS: Upon entering the hotel I was hit with an overwhelming stench mixed with moldiness (that’s the best way to describe it). No elevator. Walked two flights up to my floor. Couldn’t locate my room because it was located in a very dimly lit area with three doors off the main hallway. The room was very small (not an issue for me) but no WiFi, no towels, no phone, no coffeemaker or kettle, no microwave, no safe, no towels, a thin sheet over a mattress (same for the pillow case). Two thin and dirty smelly blankets in the cupboard. Two small soap bars and a small packet each of shampoo and conditioner. I Went outside and when I returned a woman was spraying liquid on the carpeted steps and using a broom or mop to scrub them. The moldy smell remained through my stay at the hotel. I asked for towels and she brought me one. She said I could only get one towel. The property did not respond when I asked for a second towel. I stayed 3 days/3 nights and not once saw anyone at the reception and not once was the room cleaned or the garbage removed I was instructed by text to leave the key in the reception desk when I checked out. I would not stay here again.

Strange place. No reception. Dirty hallways carpet. Full of stains. No stuff. But rooms are clean.
False advertisement too small bathroom its not the one in the picture theres little space for legs when sitting on toilet because shower cabinet too close ur health is doomed staying there its like made to ridicule people.
My room didnt lock from the inside and when complaining about it to the hotel staff which i didnt see until at all until the day i left they told me theres nothing they can do about it
They advertise that they have wifi and laundry. The wifi only works if you sit on an uncomfortable couch by the front desk. There is no laundry service at all.
False advertising, slow to respond, and there were cockroaches in the bathroom.
Would not stay again.
It was a terrible experience
No one on the reception EVER. I asked for new towels and Toilet paper over whatsapp they said we will provide in the morning. no one appeared in the morning. no one cleaned the room ever . It was a horrible experience. Imagine you don't even have toilet paper!
The hotel is in a nice area in the downtown of Sofia. However, the bathroom shower area was a bit filthy, the door of the bathroom didn't close properly, and the floor of the room was not properly clean.
The door would not lock at the property and wouldn’t even close. It was a nightmare checking in with phone calls having to be made just to get a key to get in. The button we were have to get into the building wouldn’t work
I had to prepare my bed myself. The rooms are very old, the bathroom was smelly and dirty and water was leaking everywhere. No hot water and one could hear everything from neighbors. the only good side is the location, near to everything in the city center
I spent a good deal of time wondering what the big red stain on the curtains could be, and finally decided that even the good answers were pretty bad, and left. Was able to find a hotel in a nicer area for just $5 more, and it was very much worth the upgrade. This hotel was really creepy. Check-in was with the Chinese restaurant next-door. Room was small and located down a ramshackle hallway. Weird sounds at night. Location is pretty good, but I would not recommend to anyone.
DON'T COME HERE EVER. Avoid this place. They have no hot water. They didn't warning us prior arrival. We came to reception and they say no hot water. Smells dump. All dirty, carpet discussing. All these things and they didn't refund us. We bought via expedia they didn't help us either.
Das Hotel ist eine Zumutung. Überall lose Elektrokabel, Steckdosen. Schmutz ohne Ende, es stinkt und in der Dusche und Fensternischen ist Schimmel. Wir haben nach einer Nacht das Hotel gewechselt
Sporca no cambio lenzuola no reception no colazione no ascensore

Il posto è centrale e secondo me è l'unico preggio della struttura. Le parti comuni sono brutti e puzzolenti. La camera è grande . Il bagno con lavandino che perde e muffa negli angoli.Forte odore di sigarette.Se serve un appoggio di una notte a basso costosenza pretese di niente allora può andare.
Horrible. La recepción no es 24 h y no nos avisaron. El ascensor roto. Entramos a la habitación y resulta que nos tuvimos que poner a hacer las camas nosotros mismos. Nos encontramos los colchones mugrientos descubiertos con una simple sábana encima. Además, lo único que había encima de la cama era otra sábana para cubir los edredones que estaban dentro del armario y tuvimos que ponernos nosotros a meterlos dentro de los cubre edredones. Los edredones asquerosos, con pelotillas y suciedad. Las sábanas con manchas. Las paredes con manchas y desgastadas. Por si fuese poco, el suelo de la habitación estaba lleno de polvo, hecho bolas y había bastante. Ahora vamos con el baño: la alcachofa de la ducha rota, se salía el agua por todos lados, no había toalla para el suelo, únicamente nos dieron una toalla mediana por persona. No había champú (pese haber preguntado con anterioridad y ellos nos confirmarnos que sí que habría). En fin, daba todo asco. Lo único bueno la zona, pero para dormir en una casa del terror mejor buscar otras opciones. No repetiría.
