Guestbook
The apartment had everything we hoped for and extra (the DVD's were great for relaxing when we didn't feel like going out), the receptionists at the hotel were always very polite and helpful as was the the shuttle driver to the gondola station. If I have any friends wanting to go to Bansko I'll recommend your apartment. E Ford London 21 Jan 07.
