Dezastruos! Aer irespirabil! Nu recomand!
Pros:

Doar amplasarea a fost ok

Cons:

In tot hotelul este un miros de fum de țigară nemaiîntâlnit.
Nu se putea respira.
Deși am stat cu fereastra deschisă toată noaptea, nu am putut respira decât fum de țigară.

Pros:

The overall view was ok .

Cons:

I was disappointed with several aspects of my stay. Firstly, the location next to a petrol station was not ideal, and despite the large signage, it was not clearly visible or easy to find. The main entrance is situated at the rear, which caused some confusion—we initially drove into the petrol station by mistake before locating the correct access.
The room itself did not meet expectations. The pillows were of poor quality, the floors were uncomfortably cold, and several bathroom fixtures and fittings were loose. Attention to detail in maintenance and comfort appeared lacking.
Breakfast was particularly underwhelming. The selection consisted largely of cold meats and hard bread, which is not what I would expect from a hotel of this price. The hot food was also disappointing—items such as bacon and sausages appeared undercooked, and the eggs were presented in a way that made it unclear what was being served. Overall, the food quality and presentation did not inspire confidence, and I chose not to eat it. The cereals also appeared stale.
Additionally, there is no lift access despite the property having multiple apartment-style buildings, which may be inconvenient for some guests. I also noticed issues with housekeeping, such as towels being incorrectly placed.
In my opinion, the hotel is overpriced for the standard it offers. I have stayed in more affordable hotels that provided a significantly higher level of quality in terms of facilities, cleanliness, and overall experience.
Personally, I would not choose to stay here again, although others may feel differently

Sub orice critica! Nu se putea respira, totul este afumat.
Pros:

Taverna afumată!

Cons:

Efectiv ca o taverna afumată, nu se poate respira, ocoliți acest așa zis hotel.

Отвратително
Pros:

Паркинга и донякъде цената. Но въпреки това е тотална мизерия.

Cons:

В стаята ни нямаше пердета! Беше мръсно, вратата на хладилника беше изкъртена. Снимките в платформата booking нямат нищо общо с действителността.

Pros:

L’hôtel était propre et situé dans un endroit très calme. Mais si vous cherchez à être dans la ville, il vous faut une voiture ou le bus car il n’est pas à Sofia.

Cons:

C’était difficile de communiquer avec le personnel comme personne ne parlait anglais. Nous avons payé pour le late check out mais l’équipe de ménage nous n’a pas respecté.
