BOROVETS - SKI TUNING?

Hi all! I'm hoping someone can help me with this question:

I own my own skis and are taking them to Borovets in a few weeks. Are there ski sharpening/waxing/tuning facilities/shops in Borovets? it's a real effort for me to get to a ski shop where I live, and I would just as soon have it done 'on-site' if I can.

But I'm worried because I haven't seen any mention online of services like this. I've only seen brief mentions of ski rentals, and a ski shop at Hotel Rila. Can anyone ...

Ive not had anything technical done but all the ski storage depots offer hot wax @ 5lev and edges sharpened @ 5lev (no discount for both) Can't fault the workmanship in 2 of the rila depots. There are plenty of places to choose from, I wax ours at home but allways have them done halfway through the week when I am there Exclamation have a great time Exclamation Razz Booze

There are plenty of places in borovets but i belive the best place to get a full service is the ski station down behind the gondal lift its about £10.00 !!
