Good stay, but room was changed when i arrived.
I stayed at Hostel Musala for 5 nights during a longer stay in Bulgaria. My stay got off to a rough start. I had booked the exclusive apartment with kitchenette on the 5th floor, but when i arrived i was told the 5th floor was closed due to construction above. I was given a room on the 4th floor with no kitchette, but everything else. I was given a bottle of wine for the inconvenience. The room i did get was very nice. The balcony, which i was looking forward to, was covered in pigeon poo and filthy. The other facilities, common showers, laundry and kitchette were good. The only reason i gave 3 stars instead of lower, was the fact that my stay in general was great other than the room issue. I wanted to enjog my stay, so i didnt make it an issue. But just be aware, if you have a booking on the 5th floor, you may be better to find somewhere else. Btw, Victoria is fantastic at the front desk.

An acceptable 3 night hostel stay
The hostel is adequate for a 3 night stay , a little noisy through the night but that’s hostel’s, it’s in an ok location and central to beach / town etc. it could be improved by a deep clean especially things like the fridge / balcony /, that said the cleaning / cleaner is very good with general day to day cleaning to communal area’s, especially with so many people constantly occupying. The hostel is marketed at a good price point for what it offers, staff I didn’t really see that much but the check in and check out few words were friendly enough.

really nice staff and very clean, much better than what I had expected from a cost friendly hostel. The guests were generally very laid back and warm. overall a positive experience and would be willing to stay here again :) only downside is that the walls are very thin and you can almost hear anything, fine during the day but quite disturbing at night

Good economy option though a little noisy...
Stayed with family. We were in room 105 ( a double room). Room itself was comfy enough though doors to balcony would not close. Worst part was the continual noise from people going past our door through the night, creaking floor in corridor and our door was not a good fit to keep noise out. Had to speak to a guest at 00.30 who was thoughtlessly playing a loud radio in the communal kitchen. Kitchen could be better equipped, no tea spoons and cooking utensils a little lacking. Staff were really friendly and the best part about the hotel. Location was perfect though, right in one of the best parts of the city. Found parking nearby for 12 lev for a day.
