I had a mixed experience at Hotel Sonya. The location is fantastic, being just a short walk from major attractions, which made my sightseeing easy. However, the service left a lot to be desired; I encountered unfriendly staff and issues with room cleanliness. The room itself was cozy, but I struggled with poor air conditioning during my stay.
