Great value for the money
Pros:

The place for the price was amazing. You get a comfortable private room. It's really worth it!

Cons:

The facilities weren't very clean, the bathroom was leaking and the location isn't great but otherwise the room itself is quite comfortable

За начало на престоя беше добре,но цената е висока.
Pros:

Народната музика на България е създадена в такт 7/8 това е трептенето на звездите от Космоса,физиците го знаят,Дельо хайдутин ...До хотела е училището по танци.

Cons:

От 1.11. до 1.05. София е губеща туристическа дестинация,хотелите пестят от парно и асансьори,пътувайте без багаж, всичко има в София втора употреба,има прясна храна.София е за студенти,център на математици.През този период пътувайте до Атина без багаж.

Pros:

Чиста стая, уют. Wi-fi с Бърз интернет. Безплатен паркинг. Топ локация, която дава възможност да се избере всякакъв транспорт за пътуване в София.

Cons:

Няма нещо, което да изтъкна като негатив като цяло.
Хотелът е 2 звезди и отговаря на това ниво.
Все пак би било добре да може да се оптимизира плащането, защото да се изискват точни суми като брой от клиентите и да няма възможност за връщане на ресто е малко несериозно. Персоналът си заслужава бакшиша, но все пак...доброжелателна препоръка :)
