Aya's Apartment

Everything was very good

Aunque la calle estaba de obras pudimos aparcar bien cerca. El apartamento para dos bien, pero para tres ese sofa con el calor del verano se lleva muy bien

No habia aire en la habitación solo en el salón y hacia mucho, sofa incomodo para dormir

Great apartment! Very comfortable and spacious, well equipped for short or long stays. The location is excellent, very close to the bus and train station and an easy walk to the many attractions of Plovdiv. Great value for money and responsive hosts. I would stay here again without hesitation.

Location was great and communication with owner was easy.

Few minor niggles which were not enough to ruin the stay but would be better if not there.

I needed a place to work from while family was in town, and Aya's Apartment worked well for my purpose. Initially, I had issues with the WiFi dropping often, but once I found that the router was behind the bed and then moved it to the living room (the Ethernet cable is pretty long so not a problem to do), I had no issues with internet for the rest of my stay. The bed was comfortable and there was plenty of space to store my clothes and other items. There were toiletries in the bathroom and dishwashing liquid in the kitchen, which was nice. The location is pretty good, though as others have mentioned, the area is undergoing a huge construction project. Not much work was being done during my stay so I had no issues with noise. In fact, it was pretty quiet since there's not traffic on the street. When you're sitting at the table on the balcony, you can't see the construction, so it's still a pleasant experience. Views of Youth Hill are nice, and you can easily walk up to it for a hike or to enjoy one of the many cafes next to it. Lots of grocery stores and markets within walking distance, including Billa in the Markovo Tepe Mall (a 10-minute walk maybe). You can also easily walk to city garden and the center. Overall, a lovely place.

While I did enjoy my stay, a few more items in the kitchen would be thoughtful. For example, though there is a paper towel holder, there were no paper towels. Not necessary, of course, but if you are going to include the holder, may as well add the paper. The space behind the bed is a bit cluttered and dusty. The thing that I didn't like is how dark the apartment was. There are lights, of course, but all the ones in the living room are kind of dimmed, and that's where I worked (since the table is there). Luckily, I didn't have too many virtual meetings so I managed. That may not be an issue for most people, but I thought I'd mention it. These are just a few minor opportunities for improvement.

Everything was perfect!!!

They are doing a massive work on the street, it's really dark in the night, but obviously this is not the host's fault
