Squalid, disgusting place. Bedbug's visible on the bedclothes. Had no choice but to stay here as arrived into Sofia late and the Hostel Mostel was fully booked. My young daughter woke up with 100 bites on her arms alone. I have even more bites covering my face, arms, shoulders, hands and lower legs. One filthy bathroom, with slime and hair... More

I stayed here for two nights after arriving from Turkey on the bus. The owner, Ivan, made me dinner and gave me a much needed beer. I can't say enough about his hospitality. Ivan doesn't speak much English, but he gave me a map of the city and I was on my way. Also, my bus didn't leave until 11:30... More

This small family-run hostel oozes charm. The folks than run it look after every visitor as if they were their own kids. There are all sorts of primary school-ish decorations on the wall like alphabet charts and posters about good behavior and one of the dorms is decorated with an array of Bulgarian trinkets sold at local souvenir shops.
