Guest Apartment Monarch

This was our first visit to Smolyan, so my friend and I decided to stay close to the center. The location of this apartment was perfect for that! We work remotely and thought we'd spent a week in Smolyan doing that. The WiFi was fast and reliable - I had not issues with Zoom meetings. The bathroom is spacious and modern (which is not a given when renting in Bulgaria so we were pleasantly surprised). The owner contacted me on the day-of to confirm our arrival and share the contact information of the person who will give us the key - that was appreciated. Pavlina was waiting for us when we arrived and helped us navigate to the parking (which is not by the building but nearby). One of us used the couch and thought it was pretty comfortable and there was plenty of bedding available. Overall, we had a lovely time exploring Smolyan and working from this apartment.

Though these are noted as included, when we arrived, there were no toiletries in the bathroom and only one toilet paper roll. My friend and I travel a lot and camp often, so we had our own items and didn't contact the host to ask for them. But if this is something you will need during your stay, I recommend confirming ahead of time or telling the host when you arrive. As I mentioned, the parking is not next to the building but nearby and it's a bit tricky. You have to be comfortable parking in tight spaces and on a hill (I'm guessing that's just a thing in a mountain town like Smolyan, so be prepared).

Apartment is very comfortablе, Location is very good, recommend for travelers
