I had a mixed experience at this hotel. While the location is fantastic, super convenient with easy access to the city center and metro, I was disappointed with the state of the room and the dining options. The service was friendly and helpful in most parts, but there was one staff member who was more focused on her phone than guest concerns. Overall, it wasn't ideal, but there were some highlights.

I stayed at this hotel recently, and it has a lot to offer. The rooms are spacious and have a great terrace, while the staff was very nice and attentive. However, the windows opened into a yard, making the room a bit dark. The location is perfect for exploring the city, and the dining options were quite good, but I would love to see more vegan choices. Overall, it's a good value for money, but the ambiance of the room could use some improvement.

The hotel has a great location, right by the metro station and close to the city center, making it convenient for exploring. The service was incredibly friendly and professional, which added to the overall pleasant experience. However, the rooms felt quite dated and didn't match the expectations set by the photos online. While the dining options were above average for a Bulgarian hotel, the timing of breakfast didn't work well for early travelers.

The hotel has an excellent location, close to the subway and city center, making it easy to explore the area. However, the room situation was less than ideal due to a strong moldy smell. The service had its ups and downs, with some confusion regarding parking and room allocations, but it had its bright spots too. Overall, the value for money is average with significant room for improvement.
