Liked: The other guests

Disliked: Didn t live up to their write up. It said in the, booking confirmation, Free pickup,(no mention there of price minimum) so having a sore back, asked if they could pick me up. they said yes, then no at the last minute when I confirmed it was bus not train station, giving really vague directions and telling me to walk. I felt let down, but all I got was arguements about how easy it was to get there.Only if you know the way!Patronising emails don t help the customer. Unfriendly welcome, cold dorm, uncomfortable bed. Luckily the other guests were nice.Had a miserable stay, unprofessional, misleasing write up, would not recommend.

Liked: Clean place. Hot water shower forever (exaggerated but it was the best I had in a long time). Good location to market and sites. Friendly management (understatement). Excellent breakfast (by far the best breakfast incl. package). Good info about the surrounding area.

Disliked: Can't think of anything.

Liked: Breakfast as very nice. Homely atmosphere. Everything was very sharing, home-made cookies on offer as well as home-made wine one night! Free spring water on offer all the time. Free internet and computer use.

Disliked: Hot water in the 4 bed dorm wasn't quite enough for all of us to shower in the morning. A little cool in the room and no remote for heat pump although we didn't ask. A few funny black worms made their way into our room but they were easily disposed of.

Liked: Loved loved loved Nomads in Veliko Tarnovo! The staff made us feel completely at home, and we wound up staying a few extra nights. We met some great folks at the hostel. The staff is excited and knowledgeable about the area — helping us plan hikes and outings nearby, as well as letting us in on the right places to eat. We couldn't ask for more! The hostel seems very active in the community, which we don't often find and it made a great impression on us.

Liked: The guys were good hosts and very helpful. We got 4 people together to share a tour with transport to Plovdiv and it was brilliant to visit places we could not have seen on a bus. Go inside the Russian monument if you take the tour! Location is fantastic you can sit on the balcony and look out on the oldest street in Velikon Tornovo, and an easy walk to town restaurants. Breakfast was also very good home grown and home made.
