Reviews
For travellers around Sofia you cant go wrong.
Staff are lovely and speak perfect English.
We stayed here for 3 nights and didnt want to leave! Breakfast is simple but lovely.
Only down full was out air con did not wofk very well.. And with the sofia heat it got pretty hot in our room!
But overall lovely place and hotel. We would stay here again :)
The owners are Armenian who made me feel extremely welcomed and felt the personal touch. I was leaving for day trip before the breakfast time and they kindly offered me a takeaway fresh homemade baked breakfast.
The location is very easy to reach. About 3 mintues walk from and to European Union metro station (they did share with me transportation tips through email before the visit). There is also a small mall about 5 minutes walk to get Sim card, exchange money and buy some grocery.
I requested to change the room for another smaller room and they did immediately. I was in room 107, the size is extremely convenient for solo traveler and very clean.
Extra feedback: When I was hungry and didn't know where to get food from, Ilyan from front desk ordered pizza for me which was very nice.
