Hi there, we use cookies to improve your experience on our website. You can update your settings by clicking the Privacy policy link at the bottom of the page. My wife and I went to Bulgaria for the first time last week. We wanted to check out Golden Sands and Sunny Beach.
In addition, as we dream of buying a small seaside holiday apartment at some point, we wanted to look into that.
Bulgaria is supposed to mean great fun, excellent beaches, good food, cheap prices, and also good investments. Here are some highlights from our trip: 1 At one point during the flight, I realized that someone had just been smoking in the toilet and there was a horrible smell. I kindly pointed this out to the hostess. She was extremely rude to me, and told me to mind my own business.
As far as I could later gather, the responsible person was one of her colleagues. There were just two taxis at the airport. We took one, and we were charged euros to Golden Sands. We were indeed cheated, by a driver who pretended that his meter did not work, and then added all sorts of extras for luggage, night extra, etc. We complained but he shouted and shouted, until we paid.
We had pre-paid it through medhotels. They were very rude to us, saying they could not help. They called a taxi for us in the end, so we could go and look for another hotel in the middle of the night. We complained, and they said their representative was going to find another hotel for us, and it's our fault that we did not call. I explained that at 2 am I did not feel like trying to contact them, and they may be closed too, but they still refused to refund the money.
