Pros:

otogara ve şehir merkezine yürüyerek gidilebilmesi çok iyiydi. bu fiyata bu kadar rahat bir konaklama beklemiyordum. otelin tasarımı retro hatta vintage, fakat kötü değil. resepsiyonda çalışanlar çok kibar ve ilgiliydi. özellikle işe yeni başlamış bir hanımefendi vardı, sofya sosyal hayatı hakkında güzel bilgiler verdi. teşekkürler.

Excellent location, helpful staff. Considering the many negative reviews, I waa pleasantly surprised. Great value for money and would definitely recommend this hotel to travelers, who are not so demanding.

Cons:

Noise insulation was not top notch and I could hear when peple were coming back to the hotel in the middle of the night, but it was not a big deal.
