Room was clean and tidy. The Mountain View and little balcony was very nice. The parking was easy and spacious. It was in close walking distance to the downtown Bansko area where all the bars and restaurants are. The owners were very pleasant.

Хозяйка гостеприимная, в комнате чисто.В доме тихо, все близко; домашние овощи и баница на завтрак с ароматным чаем, который хозяйка собирала из трав сама, просто оболденно. Все понравилось, рекомендую. Остались бы с радостью еще хотя бы на пару дней.

πραγματικά οικογενειακό ξενοδοχείο
όλα ήταν υπέροχα ( ασφαλές πάρκινγκ, μεγάλο δωμάτιο καθαρό, αξιοπρεπές πρωινό, κοντά στο κέντρο, επαγελματισμός τών ιδιοκτητών) θα το ξαναεπισκεφτω σίγουρα...

Very clean, quiet, warm and well run. Illiya and Katya are very friendly, helpful and made us feel very welcome and valued. Llinden House is only 5 or 8 minutes from the centre of town on foot, and about 1.5km walk from the Ski Gondola up the main street, so quite and interesting walk with many shops, bars and restaurants. Good sized rooms, our beds were comfortable.
