Pros:

Old but clean comfortable room. The hotel is really well located if you go to a gig to 888 arena or you need to stay 1 night to commute some flight. The hotel is at 15 minutes by car to the airport, not on the city center.

Cons:

Wifi was not properly working, not important for me but if you needed for work, don't expect you can work at your room. The quality of the breakfast is OK per 6€ but it is very confusing. Not clear for me the options until I asked the staff.

Мястото е хубаво
Pros:

Вианги отсядам тук за събития из района. Стаите винаги са хубави.

Cons:

Аман от строежи навсякъде ! Почват още преди 10 да вдигат шум и ако спиш леко ,наспиване няма . Стаята ми беше хубава ,но строежът беше точно насреща .
