Hotel Super 8

The location was good, but not amazing. With my elderly grandmother, it took us a bit less than 10 minutes to walk to Alexandar Square. The staff was absolutely wonderful. Victoria at the front desk was extremely helpful and was one of the few people in the country who spoke fluent English. She insisted on carrying our luggage to our rooms and booked us a taxi for the airport that came right on time. The buffet breakfast had a wide selection of drinks, sausages, fruits, desserts and other general breakfast items. The room was well-sized and had a wardrobe, a row of cupboards, a desk, tv with a few English channels and two double beds. The beds were comfortable and the rooms were clean. A hairdryer was provided, although it was a bit old. We had a pair of thin slippers each, a nice unexpected touch. The view from the window was great, we were able to see the Millenium Cross and the Fortress from our room. Restaurants can be found right next door to the hotel. The hotel itself was easy to find thanks to a large sign on the front and side of the building. The shower was modern and easy to use, although not built for short people as the jets on the side hit me right in my face.

Although there was an elevator on the property, it did not go to our floor so we had to climb up 2 stories worth of stairs. The breakfast was not covered with anything and was not very warm, but not exactly cold either. The bathroom had a bulb that kept flickering, causing us a slight headache. The sheets underneath were not big enough for the bed, so a part of the mattress had to be left exposed. No toiletries other than soap in a large bottle. There was no balcony but the window was very large. Loads of mirrors all around the room which did lead to some confusion. I got a huge fright walking to the bathroom at night, as the bathroom door is a mirror and I mistook my reflection for an intruder in my room.
