A copy of a report I wrote sometime ago! I hope it helps.
We stayed there in 2003!! The chalets are comfortable and warm - alittle too warm at times to be honest.
Do NOT go expecting to self cater. The chalets do not have the facilities for this, breakfast was OK though and there really is a very limited supply of food in Borovets to do this anyway. The kids had to eat their cereal out of cups as there were no bowls! but all added to the experience of being in a different ...

The kids had to eat their cereal out of cups as there were no bowls! but all added to the experience of being in a different country. There is a full size fridge and 2 ring burner. A couple of pots to make coffe/tea etc
The restaurant on site was very good if you were eating off the menu - the buffet meal looked ineteresting but we obviously didn't have it as we were room only.
The ski bus takes you into Borovets each morning without any difficulty. We found the evening service limited and tended to catch a taxi back later. 10 lev = £3. We felt it was a little too far out of town and certainly too far to walk with a 5 & 7 yr old but we did see others making the journey.
We exchanged money in the reception area and used the safety box for our valuables. The ladies cleaned each morning if you left the card asking them to in your window. . Plenty of hot water in the shower. We didn't use the sauna - some chalets have them ours didn't. There is one located in receprion.
It is a very pretty location especially if it has snowed overnight and the trees then look beautiful.
Have fun and ask more if you wish.
