I booked this hotel last minute when my usual spot was full. The rooms were clean and comfy, and the bathroom was spacious with plenty of towels. However, the dining experience was quite disappointing as the food was not up to standard, and the staff didn’t seem very accommodating. For the price of 82 lev for a double room including breakfast, it was decent, but I wouldn't return for the dinner.

I booked this hotel last minute, and while the rooms were clean and comfortable, my experience with the restaurant was quite disappointing. The staff at reception seemed unwelcoming when I wanted to check out the room beforehand. I found the food to be overpriced and poorly prepared, which overshadowed my stay. On the bright side, the room price of 82 lev, including breakfast, was reasonable.

I booked this hotel at the last minute and found the rooms to be clean and comfortable, which was a plus. However, my dining experience was quite disappointing, especially due to the issue with my meal. The breakfast was acceptable but not exciting, and while the room price was very reasonable, I wouldn’t recommend the restaurant at all.

The hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were clean and comfortable, which I appreciated, but the dining experience left a lot to be desired. The restaurant had a limited atmosphere and my meal was quite disappointing. At least breakfast was decent and the price for the room was good, but I would suggest dining elsewhere.
