We stayed at Sofia by Bunik for two nights and found it to be a calm and peaceful spot, despite some occasional noise from construction across the street. The location is perfect, making it easy to explore the area, and the price was very reasonable. The hotel was clean and offered convenient workspaces, which was great for getting some work done while traveling. Although we ended up leaving our belongings there for the entire week to hit the road, the two nights we spent were pleasant. A good option for budget-conscious travelers who need a well-located and practical place to stay.

Bugs in the shower, shortage of towels, only allowed one key for the two of us even tho it's needed to get in and out, full time day staff at the reception desk was extremely rude every day. We travel here a couple times a year and this is the first place I can say I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND!

This is our 2nd stay at sofia.. first stay was 10 days and other than a few icky issues with the pool, it was good. THIS stay will be 28 days and it's been terrible from first day. The biggest complaint is that the water pressure in our shower is almost nonexistent. It takes me no less than 20 minutes to shower and if I have any sand from the beach it takes longer. Maintenance finally came but it made little difference. Our first stay the pressure was great. The only hook to hang anything on (seriously only one in the whole room) is just the screw plate. There's no a/c in the halls, we are fairly acclimated.. spend 6 mo a year here and walk everywhere most days but we don't sweat until we get back to hotel and have to wait for elevator. We seem to be in the high traffic zone too. With the exception of the first couple nights, there have been multiple rooms with families on both sides of us ladt 3 nights lots of in and out slamming doors, kids running and yelling/being loud in the halls well after 1am.

There is no way those positive reviews are real. No shot. The pictures are all photo shopped. We’ve stayed in dozens of hotels in playa and this by far is the worst one. The telephone in the room is decorative (seriously). Bugs/gnats all over the kitchen counter. The shower and bathroom sinks are disgusting. The pool bed cushions were disgusting. Just a terrible, terrible, hotel. Please do yourselves a favor and do not believe the positive reviews. Those have to be bought and paid for. TERRIBLE.

Great budget hotel in the center of town easy walking distance to restaurants and 5th Av. Unfortunately my room was on the ground floor so there was no view and it was a bit noisy. I could hear staff talking and playing music when I was trying to sleep. View from pool deck on roof is awesome.
