Ski and boot rent in Borovets

Hi all! I have booked for myself and 2 friends to go to Borovets and stay at the Club Hotel Yanakiev for a week on the 25th of Feb. We are all intermediate skiers, and this is our first trip to Borovets. We have booked everything independently. Could anyone suggest where to get skis, boots and ski lift passes? Is it worth buying them now or buying them when we arrive? What would be the cheapest Thanks in advance!

Guys

There is a small hotel called the Popangelov on the slopes just past Ice Angels near the bottom of the blue and green drag lifts. Wooden place with a small coffee shack near it. Very Bulgarian, but there is a ski hire place there. Quite small but ski hire and mainatenance is excellent and much better than Borosports. Also means can leave skis at bottom of slopes when finished. Other place is Hunters which you can find at the bottom of the Flora hotel.
