Worth weighing
3 to weigh- Not the cheapest option — The value rating sits slightly below the hotel's other scores, and the price from 112 GBP per night positions it as a mid-range choice in Sofia.
- No pets allowed — Guests travelling with animals will need to look elsewhere, as the hotel does not permit pets.
- Some mixed experiences — While most reviews are positive, a couple mention minor letdowns – like one guest rating the room 5.2 out of 10, though they still appreciated the layout and free weights.
