Pros:

The waiting area next to the reception has a cool decor with oldies music playing.

Cons:

Large mold stains in the bathroom ceiling, we told the staff it was not sanitary to stay and requested for another room. They said nothing was available. We left and booked another accommodation, prefer to lose money than be exposed to health hazards.

Cons:

The room was very smoky. The window to the shared courtyard on the 1st floor opens only in one mode and has no mosquito net. The bathroom is in terrible condition, with a lot of mold.

Dobry stosunek jakości do ceny w stolicy europejskiego kraju
Pros:

Bardzo miła i pomocna obsługa, klimatyzacja i lokalizacja na plus, ręczniki, telewizor wraz z szerokim zasobem kanałow, każdy znajdzie coś dla siebie, stosunek jakości do ceny bardzo dobry, fajne miejsce na budżetowe nocowanie podczas city breaka

Cons:

Cienkie ściany, przez co słychać było charczącego sąsiada, z toalety unosił się nieprzyjemnu odór, szklarnia na zewnątrz nieczynna, brud na zewnątrz i niekomfortowe oddawanie kluczy przed każdym wyjściem

Repetiria sin ninguna duda.
Pros:

En recepción había un matrimonio muy agradable. La habitación era antigua pero cómoda y confortable y con una nevera que me vino muy bien.

Cons:

Para lo que yo quería fue mas que suficiente,lo único recordar que no tienen ascensor, por si van personas con problemas para subir escaleras.

Comfortable
Pros:

It’s just a normal hostel with a very pleasant staff. The beds were clean, the room was secure and it had a shared balcony.
The price is also good given the location.

Cons:

There was mold in the shower (quite a lot) and the AC wasn’t working, but it was not that hot.

Weekend a Sofia
Pros:

Staff gentile e disponibile, posizione strategica vicino alla metropolitana e al centro storico, pulizia molto buona.

Cons:

Non voglio fare una critica, ma solo segnalare che non è presente il piatto doccia, quindi il pavimento del bagno si allaga un po'. Basta portare delle ciabatte e si risolve il problema.
