“Do not be immediately put off by the building's exterior; inside, it is clean and well-maintained, with the advantage of thick walls that ensure a quiet stay. I think its ample event spaces, family-friendly amenities, and a rooftop restaurant elevate its appeal for both business and leisure travelers. It seems a practical choice, particularly with its proximity to the airport.”

The staff displayed great kindness. The restaurant presented a beautiful setting for meals. The room allowed for a comfortable stay during the nights count.
The hotel has an older feel, and the rooms show signs of age. I encountered an issue concerning the late check-out. I specifically selected this hotel for the late check-out offering, but it wasn't honored.

The hotel sits near jumbo and lidl stores. these are useful if you forget items. direct buses run to levski, cska, and vasil levski football stadia. This allows easy access to games.

the room was really big i think. it was clean though. mattress wasn't bad and i had hot water all the time. the room was warm, and there was enough parking.
no coffee or tea, just a kettle and cups was there. the ac worked only when windows were closed. the person at the reception did not tell us this, he just gave another remote. we had to request breakfast too, and they made it for only one person, at first.
