It was comfortable in the City Center. Sofia is Apart hotel, in the night it is difficult to find it. The building next to H&M store is right building.

very good communication with the hotel staff regarding the cancellation of the reservation, which could not be completed for reasons beyond our control. all funds have been refunded to me. it is not always so obvious, so it is worth adding such a comment. there is a chance that in the future I will use the services of the hotel.

The staff is very friendly and professional, they did everything they could to make our stay pleasant The location is just perfect The rooms are big The tour company the hotel work with is excellent

Need split this review for 2, because we changed the room. The first room wasn't clean, the air-conditioner didn't work properly, the bathroom wasn't clean, but the staff changed our room without any problems. The second room was cleaner, the facilities looked better, the bathroom was clean and the air-conditioner worked. In my opinion, the air-conditioner is not properly chosen for the room size.

We missed the breakfast there that Ruben's used to give us. We had no breakfast this time. It would have been nice if we had a kettle in the room with tea/ coffee/milk .

We had a triple room. Room 210. One of the single bed was a folding bed. Not comfortable at all.
