Decor in need of major refurbishment, tired colours. Beds very comfy and linen was clean. No lifts.
DON'T COME HERE EVER. Avoid this place. They have no hot water. They didn't warning us prior arrival. We came to reception and they say no hot water. Smells dump. All dirty, carpet discussing. All these things and they didn't refund us. We bought via expedia they didn't help us either.
I had to prepare my bed myself. The rooms are very old, the bathroom was smelly and dirty and water was leaking everywhere. No hot water and one could hear everything from neighbors. the only good side is the location, near to everything in the city center

Strange place. No reception. Dirty hallways carpet. Full of stains. No stuff. But rooms are clean.
The hotel is in a nice area in the downtown of Sofia. However, the bathroom shower area was a bit filthy, the door of the bathroom didn't close properly, and the floor of the room was not properly clean.
I spent a good deal of time wondering what the big red stain on the curtains could be, and finally decided that even the good answers were pretty bad, and left. Was able to find a hotel in a nicer area for just $5 more, and it was very much worth the upgrade. This hotel was really creepy. Check-in was with the Chinese restaurant next-door. Room was small and located down a ramshackle hallway. Weird sounds at night. Location is pretty good, but I would not recommend to anyone.
You get what you pay for. Great location but very old and smelly hotel

Location, location, location!
The location is excellent! Excellent transport route. It is in the middle of the city.
There was no one at reception when i arrived about 22:30. Got help from someone to ring the number on the front door and they brought the key and the fob.
I didn’t see any kettle, tea or coffee. It is basic but cool, as you can get coffee at next door restaurant.

The location is good, there isn't much choice of budget hotels central. I would stay again but the front desk isn't 24hours and you've got to be patient to check-in. But the staff was very helpful and helped me with a taxi.
I país for 3 nights I only could stay 1
Despite being a "non-smoke" hotel the cigarette smell everywhere. The air condition did not worked. Or I never was given a remote for that

Little old and needs some updates. Location is near everything. Staff very helpful. Thanks
Only location, nothing else. No elevator, have to cary my backs to 3 rd floor by myself. In the first room not working the TV, second not at all. The third one was OK, but... But have to prepare the bed by myself. Thanks a lot, never ever back to that place.
Great location for city centre, five-minute walk. But no cleaners so no dry towels, bed never changed over four-night stay. Breakfast was included, but that amounts to a cup of coffee and a muffin/savoury in a bakery next to hotel. But the staff there were welcoming as were hotel receptionists who were young, willing and spoke very good English. Reception was also open 24/7.
The location is great. But the hotel is a bit odd. Room was very small..But then again you get what you pay for, which I think is adequate. Staff was really nice and helpful, reception is open 24h, There aee loads of places to eat around the area....
