This is a Trusted Review. Why?
We had returned to Sofia at the end of our trip, so knew Sofia accommodations and what to expect. This hotel has no sign, is full of graffiti and is next to a concrete patch and some weedy area full of feral cats and kittens. We had to walk 3/4 of the way around to find an unmarked door, leading to a dark, unlit staircase. On the second floor we opened another door to find a small anteroom with a door marked reception. We had to open another door to find a caretaker.

We had to open another door to find a caretaker. We looked at the room first....it was small, dark and drab, but most of all, we felt unsafe in the place, and I wouldn't have wanted to eat there. the place seemed generally dirty. The bathroom was a tiny closet with a bulgarian shower arrangement (no separate shower area; in this case the space was so close that everything, toilet, etc. would have been soaked). We had no confidence that on the departure date when we had to have a cab to the airport for 4 AM that it could be arranged. Chiefly, though, it was the worst hotel we had ever entered (and we have traveled extensively in Eastern Europe and aren't fussy). We passed a group of rowdy men hanging out next door to the hotel, as we left, abandoning the reservation.
