The hotel is located in the center, the main tourist spots are "within walking distance", everything is within walking distance. I booked a standard room, three months before the check-in date, the photo was very different. In the comments to Juroni, she asked to reserve a higher room. In fact, they settled on the first floor, in the farthest corner. And opposite the entrance to our room there is a place where the maids, laundresses and other attendants gathered in the early morning - that is, they really did not let us sleep.... The neighboring rooms on the ground floor were also occupied only by Russians...
The location of the hotel is great, but the room itself is tired almost to death. There is no TV, a washing place for skinny people and stepping 50 cm through a narrow door, you can kill yourself wet, a towel with wipes, etc.
The condition of the hotel rooms is, of course, depressing. However, there was no tin either. The staff is loyal and adequate, but they don't speak Russian. The breakfasts are not bad, but, of course, no frills. The main advantage of the hotel is undoubtedly its location. Everything a tourist needs is located around within walking distance. To Sofia 10 minutes on foot, to the metro 2-3 minutes. Eminenyu Pier, from where you can take an affordable walk along the Bosphorus or to the Islands, is a 10-minute walk away. Right under the hotel there is a courtyard with a cafe for every budget; next door (10 meters to the left of the hotel exit) nice cozy dining room where you can have lunch for 100 lira. In short, if you need a hotel only as a place to spend the night, it fits perfectly.
