Great social hostel. The common room is relaxing space to meet fellow travellers especially due to the free breakfast and dinner provided. Breakfast was great, dinner was okay with free beer. It’s easy to walk to main attractions. The staff were very helpful in ordering taxis and answering questions.

The only frustrating thing was all the extra driving from the hostel to the parking lot (which is said Is included but you actually pay a little extra, nothing extreme). The room was very clean and the location is beyond amazing!

I wish they had alcohol and water available to buy in the premises. Also, there were lots of arrivals during the night and the staff was talking loud in our rooms while we were sleeping.
First of all, the receptionist guy is hot! ;) (the brunette Bulgarian one). In regards to my stay, I was blown away from the whole experience! Delicious breakfast and dinner for only a few extra leva. The bed was cute with its little curtains and very comfy! I appreciated that they had power points next to every single bed. I loved that they organise nights out and that they have a lovely living room area. The area is ideal, very close by to everything and the price is amazing!

Everything was great, you can tell these guys know how to run a successful hostel! Really friendly and helpful staff, great tips and recommendations, generous buffet breakfast and lovely home cooked dinner (+ beer) every night. Great space to hang out and meet new people too. The dorm room was clean, comfortable and the beds had thick curtains and two lockable cabinets per person (they provide the key). Location is great, lots to do very walkable and a main tram stop a few minutes walk away. Can’t fault it! Thanks again for a great stay in Sofia.

“Best hostel in Sofia, we loved it!”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Stayed 1 night
The check-in took around 30 minutes which wouldn't have been a problem if we had not been on a tight schedule, so that was a little stressful and unexpected. However, the staff tried their best to help us! Regarding check-in, keep into account you might have to walk accompanied by staff to another location which is not exactly at the address of the reception, which means it might take longer and be a little stressful if you have a lot of heavy luggage. The towels we found in the room were really tiny - please remember to provide bigger ones that at least cover a whole bum ;D These are minor things anyways, we absolutely LOVED our stay!
Well.. where to start? We were expecting a double room with shared bathroom and got a private one. The flat was nicely heated. The bathroom was excellent. Everything very modern and clean. There was even a little wardrobe and a desk. The location is super central and the value for money was surprisingly great. There was no TV in our room, another big PLUS. I can't stress enough how nice and clean the room was! The staff has been super helpful, friendly and proactive to help us solve our problems! Thanks guys. Be aware that some rooms are located in other properties that are close to the address of the hostel but not in the same building. We were tired and looking for a quiet place and got it, but for those that are not the reception hall with shared living room and dining area looked really fun and friendly, the atmosphere was vibrating with travelers and laughters! Best hostel in Sofia, see you soon guys!

One of the best hostels I've ever stayed in. Amazing hostel vibe, breakfast and (light) dinner included, comfy beds, nice people, cool pub crawl. Would go back to Sofia just to stay there again!

The toilet and bathroom really were not situated appropriately....you have to walk to the corner outside in the freezing cold to go to the toilet, only 3 showers between sooo many people and just too cold to walk outside to go to the shower. Room was quite cold and heating did not start until about 8 pm. Rooms need to be cleaned properly, plenty of dust and old webs next to my bed which means the room has not thoroughly been cleaned for quite a while! ....but good people working here which changes everything overall, I guess
Nice people working here which make a difference, good food options and vibe

All good
I've been in a tonne of hostels and this one might be my favourite. Staff were so friendly, rooms cheap, clean and calm, they make dinner and breakfast so there's a nice social ambience in the hostel and the location was great. I just felt really comfortable and safe here and I'd recommend it to anyone.

Although the shower was in the room, in my case in the main building the toilet was on the floor only, so you have to get out of the room and actually go outdoors. Not quite convenient when its cold outside. The mattress wasn't comfortable enough for people with back problems like myself, but its not a disadvantage of the hostel, since its definitely not a hotel to be complaining about such things, but mb this is helpful for someone to keep in mind. And, of course, make sure you have earplugs and mb a sleeping mask, in case you get unlucky with roommates like myself (again, not a hostel's fault).
Breakfast was just great, homemade waffles simply make your day. hot tea and coffee available throughout the day for free - also great. Staff member Todor (unsure about spelling) was extra friendly, open and helpful.

i was in a 5 bed shared room. the room was a bit crowded and you had little space to put your stuff. but my main issue was the room itself was at the next door building. the shower itself was weird, since it was with a toilet in the shower. even though it's marked that they except credit card, when i arrived i could only pay cash.
overall, I liked my stay. nice common area, and it's easy to meet new people, especially because they include the breakfast which is really good and dinner with is ok. wifi was ok, and if you need they have computers for use and printer to print your boarding pass.
