Sadly the staff was not kind or helpful except for one person. Coffee water or tea in the room was charged, the first time I encounter such a thing... spa workers were rude. Its a shame since it is a beautiful hotel, great location.

My AC wasn’t working I had to call 3 times to have it fixed. The first night I couldn’t sleep because the terrible noice the fan was making I’ve been staying at this hotel for 30 years during my visits in Bulgaria I used to brag about it to all my friends This year there are signs or decline. I still enjoy the location and the space in the rooms, but there is evidence of overall quality worsening
