Not a good place to visit

Hi,

I have just returned home from a ski holiday to Borovets for a week. I found it to be completely different from what people explained to me. The people are rude the hotel food is slop and it is not as cheap as people say it is (still cheap but not cheap enough to lower the standards for a week) One of my wife’s friends had a ski instructor making sexual advances on her even though she told him that she has a boyfriend.

Hi,

I have just returned home from a ski holiday to Borovets for a week. I found it to be completely different from what people explained to me. The people are rude the hotel food is slop and it is not as cheap as people say it is (still cheap but not cheap enough to lower the standards for a week) One of my wife’s friends had a ski instructor making sexual advances on her even though she told him that she has a boyfriend. This same instructor thought that it would be fine to place his hands down the back of one of the other girls in the group pants as he helped her down a black run. All in All I would not recommend going here and I will not be returning.

Shame your holiday was not as you expected DAVEeee.

Believe me in 25 visits I've never had to experience or seen any of the behaviour you had to endure.

Good luck wherever you choose next year.

re: Not a good place to visit

DAVEeee, what did you expect from your holiday? To have a cheap vacation, to drink all the vacation, or to ski?
If you want a cheap vacation, you should go to Romania, not Bulgaria.
If you want to drink Pamps is the right place.
But if you want to ski, you should go to the Alps (the best ski runs are in Austria, Slovenia, Germany and France). This is the simple truth.

Dave have to say my holiday was the total opposite to yours. It was my second time in Borovets and enjoyed it more than last time. I can't wait for next year

re: Not a good place to visit

So what you are saying is that Borovets is not right for Price, Drinking, & Skiing. I wish you had advised me of this before......

I think that you may be missing the main point. What the instructor did was not acceptable and I was letting other people know.

re: Not a good place to visit

I agree with you that what your instructor did was unacceptable. We can put all instructors in the same category. Just cause one of them did that doesn't mean that they are all like that. I think your opinion is good so people can make up their own minds. People can see it from both opinions.
