Guestbook for Borovets Flora Apartment

Hi Anoosh: Flat was fantastic and really enjoyed the Bulgarian hospitallity and food - sheep's head with tripe was lovely, chicken hearts are also a favorite! Will probrablly come back next year, perhaps last two weeks in January and first two in February will keep you posted. Thanks, Nick - UK

Hi Anoosh: The apartment was lovely, clean and very comfortable, well equiped and very spacious for the 4 of us (would have easily accommodated 5/6 ).The apartment was very quiet, the Flora has good facilities and the children enjoyed using the swimming pool. I've been to Borovets several times and I find the Flora the best location of all the self catering apartments, it's short stroll to the Gondola, Nursery slopes and all the bars and restaurants in the main resort. I'd recommend this apartment - it was lovely. Sarah & family - Portsmouth, UK

Hello Anoosh: We had a wonderful time and were more than happy with the apartment. I was really surprised how quiet the apartment was, I had packed my ear plugs just in case, we couldn't even hear Sandra next door. We were also more than pleased with the amount of towels supplied. If we were returning to Borovets in the future we would certainly use your apartments again. I would have no problem recommending it either. Our transfers we punctual and reliable. Thanks again for everything,........Rozalia & family - UK

Dear Anoosh: We had such a great week staying in Borovets. Your apartement was just perfect, warm, cosy and great location. We had snow during our week which helped the slopes. No injury's sustained!!!! a big bonus. Thank you, Anoosh. Sandra Jones - UK

Hi Anoosh: Just a quick email to let you know that we enjoyed our time in Borovets greatly and would like to thank you for the use of the apartment. It was extremely comfortable and cosy and just as we had hoped. Vladimir was terrific and extremely helpful. The girls enjoyed their skiing and I ended up enjoying three days of skiing and we were very fortunate that we had plenty of snow: all the lifts were open. We’d potentially like renting the apartment again. Best wishes.........Trish and girls - Dubai

Hi Anoosh: We adored your apartment, which was wonderful and such a pleasure to stay in. We would love to stay in your apartment again and will be in touch. Vladmir was very helpful and organised the ski passes with ease. I know we didnt have lots of snow but we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and they all managed to ski Yastebrets 2 &3 which was the only runs open. But hey! Borovets is such a wonderful place it didnt matter at all. We would certainly recommended your services to anyone. Thankyou so much for making our stay so much better......., Sarah, Mark, Adam and Ellen - UK

Hi Anoosh: The apartment was great many thanks. I have no complaints whatsoever the location and condition of the apartment were excellent as were the snow conditions. Whilst on holiday there a family were looking at the hotel and asked me what I thought I recommended your apartment to them and showed them around. They were very impressed and may be contacting you to book. I gave them your contact details hope you don’t mind. We will as I am sure will some of our friends be booking with you again next year so thanks very much. Again many thanks and if you need me to give a recommendation to anybody I will be glad too.....Jacqui Lansley - UK

Hi Anoosh: The apartment was excellent, Very clean and roomy and of an excellent standard. In a very central location near to the Gondola and town. We had a very enjoyable weeks holiday, and enjoyed the resort unlike some friends who stayed at the Rila !! The snow and skiing was good. We went on a few excursions. A Mexican night and Twilight walk through the woods with lanterns to a tradition restaurant, food and wine was good and the children thoroughly enjoyed themselves. We would like to thank you very much, for all your help and assistance thoughout. I'm sure we will visit again !! Take Care. The Hughes Family - UK

Hello Anoosh: We all had a great time skiing in Borovets - your apartment was perfect - my daughter especially loved the size of it and wants one when she grows up! so a real hit with her - the cleaners were lovely and the modern day action man Todor was a delight - the transfer taxi's were perfectly timed and polite and everything was just so easy and enjoyable - so many thanks for your great service and we'll highly reccommend you to all our friends. Tony said to mention he found the best exchange rate was the little bank to the right of the flora hotel entrance not the one inside as they were quite rude, sullen and not good rates - just for future reference. Many thank-yous for all your support in having a very enjoyable holiday. .......xx Tracy, Tony & Ellie xx - UK

Hello Anoosh: The apartment was definitely one of the nicest things about the trip. We were very impressed at its cleanliness and contents and if you ever need a positive review for future customers I will be happy to provide one. Please give our thanks again to Vladimir and Todor, both were very helpful when required and made the holiday very relaxing. Thanks again for the accommodation and helping us organise the rest of the holiday, it was much appreciated and enjoyed! ..... Martin & co. - Eire
