“In my opinion, this hotel presents a solid budget option in Sofia, with the advantage of secure, round-the-clock parking and readily available staff. While the building shows its age, the renovated lobby and decent furnishings offer a comfortable stay, especially considering its reasonable price point near the airport and parks. For travellers prioritizing value and convenience over luxury, it's a worthwhile choice.”
