The hotel’s rooms are super small. We rented one for three people we hardly could fit. Besides the sheets of the beds were not super clean and we could find some long hair when we checked in. The blankets were thin and coarse and were not warming us enough. The neighborhood is very noisy and the windows do not block the noise. The only good thing about the hotel was nice staff.

Otimo custo benefício

Hotel aconchegante, quarto confortável, com frigobar e cafeteira. Ótimo custo benefício! Toda a equipe é muito prestativa e atenciosa. Café da manhã bem diversificado e gostoso. A região próxima ao hotel assusta um pouco a primeira vista apenas, pois é um local bem movimentado, com um forte comércio local, mas nos sentimos bem seguros ao andar por lá até de noite. Boa localização, fácil acesso por vários meios de transporte (metrô, trêm e ônibus), dá para ir a pé (aprox 25 minutos) para os principais pontos turísticos (mesquita Azul, Sofia, Grand Bazar)

Gul Hotel staff gave us excellent service. Hotel is centrally located close to public transport at 5 min walk. It is nearby all historic places and you can go by 15 -20 min walk as well. Breakfast is very good. It is a family run hotel and you will feel like home. I want to thank all gul hotel staff for taking care of us and especially giving love to Momin. See you again insha a Allah

Good for single person not a family

The location is in a very busy whole sales commercial old area. Despite that, the hotel is quiet. The room is freshly renovated. It has no views. But you will not get a better deal for the price. They do not offer breakfast. The host is nice person. I will not return back though unless I am on a tight budget. It is certainly not for families at all.
