Guest Reviews
- Gary (7/5): - The standard of the decoration was good, although the floors was uneven. Not dangerously though, just uncomfortable. The location was very good, walkable to the Serdika metro station with bars and restaurants nearby. The main issue is the number of stairs. The apratment is on the 5 floor, with over 90 steps. This is not suitable for people with small kids for example.
- Inna (8/5): - Прекрасная локация и вид из окон. Имейте в виду, что это 7 этаж без лифта, 108 ступенек.
- Milena (6/5): -
- ROSSI (7/5): Ottima zona, pulizia da migliorare - L’appartamento era accogliente, con cucina e frigo. Tutte le stanze (incluso il bagno) hanno la possibilità di essere arieggiate tramite dei lucernari e la vista è molto carina! I sette piani a piedi, se non si hanno grossi bagagli o trolley, non sono così faticosi come può sembrare. La zona in cui è situato è ottima perché vicinissima alle zone di interesse e alle vie del centro. La pulizia lascia un po’ a desiderare. La doccia è scomoda, in quanto l’acqua non defluisce nello scarico, di conseguenza esce dalla doccia bagnando il pavimento. Alcune volte sentivamo odore di scarico che proveniva dal bagno.
- Mila (8/5): Беше супер . - Мястото е страхотно.Апартамента е чист и много оборудван.
Много централно и удобно за всеки да опознае София. Апартамента е на прекрасна локация.
Единствено не са удобни 93 стъпала до края.
Но си е добър фитнес.
- De Ieso (9/5): -
- Anna (1/5): - Non ha assolutamente alcun lato positivo tranne essere in centro È impossibile soggiornare in questa struttura in quanto manca di pulizia e comfort base
- AndreanaAndreeva (7/5): -
- manuel (10/5): - El apartamento estaba muy limpio y céntrico, perfectamente equipado Que estaba en un 6 piso sin ascensor
- ALAN (6/5): Over 100 steps to reach... - Great central location, very close to the metro and a Lidl, which made everything really convenient. The place was comfortable, well-equipped with everything we needed, and the shower was excellent. Accessing the property was quite difficult, as there are over 100 stairs and no lift. This was especially inconvenient when carrying luggage and made the overall stay less comfortable.
- Jan (8/5): - Super lokalizacja Meble mają juz swoje lata, w łóżkach czuć sprężyny
- Simone (8/5): -

- Elena (3/5): -
- Palmieri (8/5): - Posizione eccellente in pieno centro, letti comodi e servizi buoni.
In sostanza siamo stati molto bene. Un consiglio per migliorare e raggiungere l'eccellenza, specificare che si trova al 5 piano (per noi non è stato un problema ma per altri potrebbe esserlo).
Un minimo di pulizia in più sui tappeti e le poltrone, troppa polvere.
- Marina (10/5): La bella sorpresa dopo un po' di fatica - Molto carino l'appartamento, forse un po' troppo caldo, ma questa è comunque una gentilezza riservata agli ospiti. Grazie. La pulizia ottima come tutto il resto. Lo consiglio vivamente. Non adatto a chi odia le scale, è situato all'ultimo piano di un caseggiato. Per il resto solo pregi. Complimenti Forse le troppe scale
- Рахела (10/5): Приятен престой - Удобството
- Anas (7/5): -
- Рахела (10/5): Протяжен престой и спокойствие - Чистотата, местоположение и удобството
- Luna (10/5): - las llaves las recoges de una cajita y da igual la hora a la que llegues
- Lidia (9/5): - Świetna lokalizacja mieszkanie czyste zadbane. Polecam
- Juan (5/5): Buena ubicacion pero mal alojamiento - El dueño contestaba rapido a los mensajes y estaba atento, la ubicacion es buena Esta MUY sucio, la vajilla (la mayoria sucia), el sofa (sucio con restos de comida por el suelo), las sabanas sucias, una cama rota (que vinieron a arreglar al momento)y todas las alfombras negras, y un RUIDO con los vecinos de arribas tremendo, esta muy mal aislado y se escucha todo lo que pasa en el piso de arriba.
Es un quinto sin ascensor.

- Peupa (9/5): - The property was beautifully decorated with colorful terrains, it felt very lively to stay in the loft apartment. The location was amazing, metro was close and also the attractions were walkable. The floors are wooden and old, and make noise. The apartment is on the fifth floor and there was no lift, it was a bit difficult to climb with luggage.
- alessandro (5/5): Alright for the price but not great - Position 5th floor. Walls half broken. Leak of water from the ceiling.
- Lyon (8/5): - Отличное местоположение,легко найти, хорошая площадь номера. Матрас очень скрипел. Номер располагается на последнем этаже здания, лифта нет, поэтому приходилось подниматься пешком каждый раз, хотя это мелочи.
- Сулаков (3/5): - Тепло и в центре Грязно , неудобно внутри , очень высрко прямо под крышей аж на 7-ом этаже, парковка платная и дорогая
- Ricardo (8/5): all ok - muy céntrico, limpio la cama se hunde por un lado
- Alessio (7/5): -
- Timothy Ayomide (9/5): - Tha apartment was very warm and cozy. We liked it a lot. It should be noted that there's no elevator so you climb a few stairs
- Andrea (9/5): - Ideal location, great communication, easy check in
- Sam (10/5): - Great location and all mod cons for a great price! Apartment is right up on the top floor (5th I think) with no lift which may not be ideal for some.
- Zsófia (1/5): Soha többet - Elhelyezkedés Nagyon hideg volt!! Nem volt fűtés, pedig az volt feltüntetve, hogy van. Nem lehetett bezárni az ajtókat, a felettünk lakókat úgy lehetett hallani, mintha velünk egy lakásba lennének. Dohos és cigaretta szag volt. Nyikorgott és mozgott a padló minden lépésnél. Fürdőszobában a zuhanykabin nem zárt jól, a vizet a földről nem lehetett sehogysem feltörölni
- Nicola (7/5): Ottima per tenersi in forma - Le camere e la posizione in centro dietro alle fontane termali Ci sono tanti scalini
- Olivier (10/5): - Emplacement parfait proche de tout et des transports.
Appartement confortable, bien équipé et grand.
Attention pas d'ascenseur (6 étage).
Hôte réactif et réponse rapide.
- Federica (6/5): Potrebbe essere migliore - La posizione centrale Va segnalato che è al quinto piano senZa ascensore
C erano qua e la macchie di umidità
- Alexander (8/5): - Excellent location and very secure 🔐 Dragging your luggage 🧳 all the way to the 7 floor
- potti (8/5): - Posizione Appartamento fatiscente, pavimenti molto irregolare, mura sporca, pareti sfondate
- Tom_22 (8/5): - Spacious flat in the best location! I spent a nice time there and everywhere was very close. Overall I'm satisfied with the flat. Noisy beds, lots of stairs and I could hear everything what the neighbours were doing upstairs, even walking.
- Ivo T. (9/5): -
- Kurinnyi (7/5): - Маленький бочок водонагревателя. Вода теплая и не так долго
- Martina (4/5): Good location. Important things to take into consideration - The best thing about this property is its location. Is excellent and in the city centre of Sofia in a very nice area and beautiful neighborhood. There are some things that are not mentioned in the announcement that I consider should definitely be highlighted.
First, the apartment is on the 6th floor without an elevator, which makes access quite difficult—especially if you have luggage, strollers, or if someone has any physical difficulty climbing so many stairs.
Second, there is no heating until November. We stayed in October, and it was already cold (around 6°C), with no way to warm up the apartment. There also weren’t enough blankets to stay covered.
Third, although the apartment is spacious and can accommodate up to four people, there isn’t enough kitchenware for that number of guests. There were only two cups (both chipped), two forks, three plates, and so on.
Some items, like the sofas and carpets, were also dirty.
If all these things were mentioned in advance and they’re not an issue for the guest, then it’s fine for a short stay in Sofia, since the location is perfect.
- serkan (8/5): - Daire Sofya’nın merkezinde konum olarak gayet iyi bir yer ev sahibi ile iletişim kolay çabuk yardımcı oluyor Ev çatı katında eski bina olduğu için asansör yok bu nedenle kısa konaklama için uygun valizi çok veya ağır olanlar için tavsiye etmiyorum. İki farklı daire resmi var biraz yanıltıcı elektrikli ocağı çalıştırmayı başaramadım
- Lino (5/5): Una struttura passabile ma molto comoda per la posizione strategica - La posizione dal centro.
Se non si hanno particolari esigenze va bene.
È un quinto piano senza ascensore utile per chi fa palestra così almeno allena le gambe anche in vacanza. Pavimento scricchioloso e rumori di passi notturni dovuti al pavimento del piano superiore sempre all' interno della stessa struttura. Doccia con copiosa perdita di acqua che fuoriusciva dal piatto doccia. Non abbiamo trovato neanche una bottiglia d'acqua e neanche un bagnoschiuma
- Anónimo (6/5): - Es un quinto sin ascensor
la ducha se salía mucho y los dueños seguro que lo sabían , teníamos que recoger el agua con toallas
Nos dejaron solo un rollo de papel higiénico para una semana
Cuando llegamos tuvimos problemas para encontrar la llave
Lo único bueno es la ubicación La ducha se salía mucho , tuvimos que recoger con toallas
- Jörgen (1/5): Uselt boende men bra läge. - Det centrala läget. Jag tyckte inte om att det låg på 7e våningen utan hiss, vattenkokare som inte fungerade, 2 koppar utan öra och 3 vinglas till 4 personer. Fuktskador på väggarna,
1a ytterdörren för att komma in till 2 lägenheter gick inte att öppna inifrån utan nyckel. så om någon gått ut och låst och tagit med sig nyckeln hade man suttit inspärrad i lägenheten.
- steven (8/5): Fantastic value for money, good host , great location , would definitely stay again - Price , location was brilliant. 2 bedrooms, lots of windows with great natural light , windows had a mesh over them so you could leave them open all day and night , lots of shops and cafes and bars and right next to Serdika Metro . About 25 minutes on metro from the airport, really easy simple and quick. Had a nice living room and was a good size Shower drain leaked onto floor in bathroom although I didn’t notify owner to ask them to tighten / fix . In one of the bedrooms it was two single beds but only one had bedding , not an issue as there was just one in each bedroom, but I suppose it would look better having both covered but an extra cost I suppose when not really needed, coffee machine didn’t work but again didn’t notify owner as I went to the supermarket across the road and bought instant for a pound or something
- Zhivko (7/5): For this price is good stay with the location for young people, students etc. - Very nice location for traveling to Sofia's downtown area and with proximity to the airport. It's the upper floor of the building, no elevator and no AC conditioner. Carrying two 23 kg suitcases and 4 backpacks is not very convenient. coffee machine was not working at all. One of the bed bases under mattress was broken so we had to put the mattress on the floor. I have informed the owners abt the issues, so far no reply.
- Aurang (9/5): -
- Isabel (10/5): - ubicacion excelente 4 planta sin ascensor
- Simone (5/5): -
- Asya (4/5): - The location No air-conditioning, very bad mattress, not very clean
- Sara (10/5): -
- Temo Khunashvili (6/5): -
- Wlazło- Makowska (8/5): - Oprócz tego,że było to ostatnie piętro i niezbyt precyzyjne wskazówki , gdzie znaleźć klucz to wszystko było w porządku.Czysto,przyjemnie. Ręczniki,suszarka,żelazko,wyposażenie kuchni.Blisko soboru Aleksandra Newskiego.
- Camille (5/5): - Il faisait très chaud dans l'appartement et la climatisation ne fonctionnait pas bien. Il y avait un ventilateur quenouille n'avons pas osé utiliser longtemps car il sentait le chaud.
- CRISTINA (4/5): Decepcionante 😭 - La ubicación está bien -Llegamos y a pesar de que en Booking aparece que hay ventilador, preguntamos y nos dicen que está roto. Pasamos un calor horrible que no se podía ni estar.
-Las paredes son de papel, se escuchaba todo, incluso del piso de arriba.
- Es un quinto piso sin ascensor
- Limpieza superficial
- Marta (10/5): -
- John (7/5): Good - Well situated.
Nice views. Needs basic maintenance. Floor flooded whenever shower used. Apartment for four people but only 2 cups both missing handles. Two fans but only one worked and temps in high 30's. It's six floors up. 106 steps. Not for the unfit.
- Farhat (5/5): Owner need to install at least air conditioning after 93 step when some one sweating and sit out Ac in 31 C - Only the location No Air conditioning
And 93 steps no lift to the 6th floor
- Jed (1/5): PLEASE DONT STAY HERE! HORRENDOUS EXPERIENCE. - Not 1 good thing to say. The photos of the apartment in the listing are not the same as what you get when you get there, the photos are are a different apartment.
Shower was blocked and would leak through shower screen.
Small cockroaches everywhere.
Bedding had stains,make up, holes and pubic hair on it.
Floor lifting in places and moving causing huge trip hazzard.
The water in the taps stank.
No fire exit what so ever!
There is 9 flights of stairs from the bottom to the top luckily we are fit but small kids,elderly or unfit people would genuinely not get up there.
The host gave us the wrong key code so when we arrived we couldnt get out keys out the box, luckily a neighbour was able to call the host and get the correct code and let us in.
No proper air con, just cheap one out a shop that blows cold air out the front then hot air out the back.
The building externally is falling apart and stairs cracking.
- Andy (8/5): Great place for a couple of days in Sofia. - Location was spot on. A lot of stairs, no lift.
- Gilbert (7/5): Budget apartment in the city. - Apartment was good , you will find nothing for free such water , coffie, ecc buy thats ok,and good location to reach the city center, the only thing i hate from this appartment is the stairs ,too much stairs to reach the appartment in the 6th floor.
But over all it a value for money.
- Hristiyana (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ihor (4/5): Disappointing - very good location of the apartment the whole vacation was ruined by the soundproofing of the apartment, I had noisy neighbors who prevented me from sleeping, but even with quiet neighbors in the apartment you can hear everything, I also didn't like the very flimsy floor, when you walk around the apartment, it shakes so much that you get the feeling that the floor is about to collapse
- Leonard (8/5): loved it enjoyed every minute . - lovely clean warm good position. way way to many stairs .
- Ivana (7/5): Our stay was good. - Spacious , nice communication with host along with good location. Gets warm really easily in winter season. Dusty & no elevator. The carpets were dirty and the dish sponge was not changed in a while.
- Виктория (8/5): Very good -
- Conrad (10/5): Exceptional - Clean, spacious
- Melita (5/5): The price is good but lot of information provided was not fully correct. - The price is good, the location is okay, the owners reply quickly The property is on 7th floor, no elevator. The shower leaks on the floor. Rooms are way smaller than in pictures. You cant really predict if you get hot water in the shower or not. It is in the cellar floor so the ceilings are low and we kept bumping into them. Sofa bed is very small and uncomfortable. For 7 days and 5 people they gave only 2 rolls of toilet papper.
- Sahar (2/5): Bad smell - The location is good, It is close to some good restaurants , Sofia mosque and Lidl No lift and it is in the last floor, the smell of the flat is very bad. I don’t recommend it.
- Evi (7/5): Good -
- Kalina (8/5): Great location, cute flat, but not air-conditioned, so quite stuffy. - The place is very colourful and has space for a group of people to sleep and eat comfortably. There was no air conditioning and only one broken fan. We stayed there in the middle of summer, so the temperature in the flat was around 35 degrees and quite stuffy. There was also a coffee machine, but unfortunately it was not working properly either.
- Ranko (8/5): Very good -
- Lucia (8/5): Very good -
- Karolis (7/5): Good - was very hot
- Martina (6/5): Pleasant -
- Alessandra (10/5): Exceptional - Apartment easy to access, clean, cute and well prepared Nothing, just a bit hot and loads of stairs
- Iliyan (10/5): Lovely short stay in Sofia city centre - I really liked everything. Both me and my friend. Everything you need is locally at the lidl across the street. The flat is modern, in a lovely location, great sunlight, easy to get to local transport. Close to all sightseeing gathering spots. Truly a beautiful and lovely flat for a bargain price. The flat is in on the 5th floor with no lift, so if anyone doesn't like stairs that'd be the only downside. Oh, and get your toiletries.
- Beatrise (6/5): Average flat, in good location - Location and size of the flat was very good. The fact that a lot of things were worn off /not working, for example, coffee maker. The biggest problem was bugs - in the kitchen area, cockroaches were crawling out of behind the electric sockets, and in the bathroom, there were gigantic roaches crawling out of under the shower pad.
If you are a bigger group of people, in the kitchen you have only one tea cup to share.
The info page in the flat wasn't updated, so we had a misunderstanding about leaving time.
- Stoyan (5/5): Passable -
- Noemi (8/5): Very good -
- Adam (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lesleycharlton (9/5): We loved & would highly recommend these apartments & their GREAT location but beware of the stairs. - The apartments are in an excellent location for tourists with all the main attractions and sites of interest within easy walking distance. The accommodation was as described in the listing. The bedlinen and towels were very clean and fresh and the apartments are modern, spacious, bright, comfortable and airy. There is a Lidl just a minute away and a fabulous coffee shop, the Altruist cafe, just opposite. The apartments are situated on the top floors, which is great, with lovely views but only accessible by stairs, as stated in the listing. Travellers should be aware that there are a lot of stairs to navigate (I think we counted 93 to the first flat then a few more to the one above), so think about the size of luggage you will be travelling with. It's not a problem but is an important factor to consider if anyone has mobility issues. Also, the showers were great but we had some issues with flooding because of the design.
- Valeria (5/5): I enjoyed my stay. The house owner was very nice and available. However, not being able to completely stop insects from - Great location, very central and good price. Insects. Apparently it’s a common problem in the city centre and local people know about it.
- Hira (10/5): Enjoyed - The property was right at the centre Sofia , everything was 10-12 mins away from the apartment , Lidl was very close to the accommodation. Everything was perfect except the fact the apartment is on the 5th/6th floor and we have to climb stairs as there is no lift in the building.
- Claire (8/5): Excellent value for money and great location to stay - Great location, close to everything. Easy and excellent communication with host. Views were great and comfortable temperature and beds. Very clean. So many stairs!! Plus, no idea what we would have done in a fire emergency, no exit or plan, which was a bit worrying.
- Ellie (4/5): Disappointing - The location was good We had a really bad time with a lot of cockroaches appearing on the beds, at the kitchen, at the bathroom, on the floor all over the apartment.
The owner wasn't willing to help us with that. He told us the only thing he could do is to come the next morning for disinfection. When we asked for a refund of money (since the very next morning we totally left the apartment), he didn't accept.
Replying to the Booking company the owner lied, claiming that when he went to the apartment he didn't find any cockroaches.... while the kitchens' dustbin was full of 7 baby cockroaches killed by us the previous night.
- Petra (5/5): Passable -
- Samfox99 (9/5): Superb -
- Stephen (9/5): Great location, well equipped and excellent value for money - Great location, clean and we equipped.
- Евгений (10/5): Exceptional - You'd better deal with cockroaches.
- Kağan (9/5): Just like your home - Considering they ask questions about how I got the keys and entered the apartment means there needs something to be improved. It was early in the morning when me and my family arrived the building. According to the explaination in the message we got confused the apartments in the entreance and in the rooftop. But after we called the guy responsible with the apartment, he just popped up and helped us, and the problem was solved. It was a 2 bedroom apartment with a big saloon. We were 4 people and it was quite enough. The place had all the facilities inside, and actually we had our breakfasts and dinners at the place. Which means you can cook inside. The location is almost in the center. It is 5-10 minutes walk from the St. Nadalia Churh and the most of the touristic places. You can enjoy the building as a group. It was written that there was no elevator, but I never thought the building could be so upright. My sister had an accident before we arrive the town and her foot was in plaster, so it was a bit hard for us to climb up and down.
- Mario (8/5): Very good -
- Paulo (10/5): Absolutely gorgeous - Had everything one needs Very well positioned
- Peter (8/5): Good for the price. - In a quieter area. No lift. Advertised as first floor. Maybe that’s different in Bulgaria as in almost top floor. Shower tray leaked. A few unwanted insects, but manageable.
- Romane (3/5): If you fine with roaches then Location is great, if you can't handle roaches pay for more elsewhere - The location of the apartment was good and not too far from the Metro station. The room was on the top floor with no lift. It was a lot of steps even for me who is quite healthy. The bathroom was leaking and smelt of damp the whole trip, dirty towels and there was an infestation of cockroaches. From Kitchen to bathroom to bedrooms.
