"Extremely spacious and clean apartment.This place is very convenient for me because I care about perfect hygiene. Every month I travel for work in Sofia and in the future I will stay only in this apartment. There is not a gathering of many people here. Disinfect regularly every day. The beds are very comfortable to sleep. Mattresses and pillows are disinfected and smell fresh. The apartment is furnished with new furniture. I have everything I need and I feel at home. The hosts are wonderful...

"Das Hotel ist sehr in die Jahre gekommen. Der öffentliche Bereich ist durchaus in Ordnung. Das Zimmer, eine Junior Suite hat den Charme der 80iger Jahre mit vielen Mängeln. Auch das hat hat viele Mängel. So sind die Fließen kaputt, die Schmutzränder bekommt man offensichtlich nicht mehr gesäubert. Die Webseite des Hotels verspricht u.a. Restaurant mit Mittags- und Abendangebot, eine Bar und anderes. Einzig das Frühstücksrestaurant und ein Fitnessbereich mit zwei Hometrainern ist vorhanden....
