The place is actually quite far from the centre. The road is noisy. The place is dirty, and the kitchen and bathroom stink. There’s no ventilation in the kitchen or bathroom. The bathroom has a lot of black mould. I burnt my feet with bleach when using the shower - the owner had left bleach all over the bathroom floor. The place is run by an idiot.

Thanks Velin Nice guesthouse her! Fresh bedsheets and towel. Clean kitchen. Basic, at busy road. Hiking in the beatyfull nature or party in Plovdiv will get you a nice sleep;)

Great hostel. The landlord and volunteering guy helped me out a lot. Is a very welcoming and nice place. I really enjoyed the experience. The shared room has air conditioner and my bed was confortable. I recommend it. Thank you!

Very friendly and helpful host. The hostel is clean and pleasant. The location is close to the city centre, yet there are places where you could park your car!

Velin is a lovely host who cares a lot for the hostel and his guests. Thanks for all the nice conversations during breakfast :) We really enjoyed staying at Ginger House!

Nice and clean place in a good location. Very friendly owner who will help you with anything. 10/10!

I have spent 2 nights in Ginger house and I had a nice experience. The room was nice and clean, we were 3 persons in one bedroom. The shower and toilet a communal and the cleanliness mirror the tidiness of the users, so you can get a very good first impression on the people which you may eventually stumble upon and inhabiting the place at the moment. The hostel was full of travellers and we could share our stories and expereince from the road - do not forget the connection between the cleanliness of the place and the integrity of the people who share it at the moment. For breakfast, the host prepared a simple but nice meal, eggs, toasts, porridge, seasonal fruits, by the way, there is a kitchen which you can use at your disposal if you are picky on what you take for food. Overall I am very satisfied with my stay at Ginger House and if I ever stumble upon going to Plovdiv I will definitely book a room there.

So nice place , the manager also amazing person Thanks 👍

Victoria, who manages the property, was very friendly and hospitable. The room was clean as was the bathroom. The only negative thing was our experience when we initially arrived- we went to drop off our things and explore the city only to find out that a private party rented out the entire guesthouse the night before, and we got yelled at by the current guests so we had to wait a couple of hours and missed the 11 am free walking tour

Wonderful rooms, great location. Free coffee included :D only issue I had is that the toilet seat is a little loose, but this was otherwise a perfect experience - especially for the price!!

I challenge you to find a better hostel host than Velin. Takes the time to help you find your bearings with a map of town and points out a few of the real hot pockets to go and check out for yourself. Honestly for what you pay and next to anything else in Plovdiv, this is a great value stay and a hostel manager who definately goes out of the way to make sure your stay is pleasant. The only reasons there aren't 5 stars across the board is the rooms linens felt like they have had a long life cycle. Blankets and sheets weren't above average as far as hostels go. Location.. while location I would normally say is great and quite central. This would depend on what you want to get up to. Most things very easily accessible by a short walk. Where I have been harsh at the moment for the purpose of keeping the review current (Aug 2023) is that if you arrive via train and happy to continue for a short walk to the address between you and ginger house there is currently significant roadworks if in the heat of the day or have decent amount of luggage or travelling in a group it is worth a cab. It is easy to think you can walk right past the edge of the roadworks and then be forced to backtrack and walk right the way back around. Adding 10 minutes if you have luggage/a group/etc. Not all that enjoyable and it's time out of your day you can spend elsewhere. Other than that though. The accomodation is close enough to call (central +1.5 blocks) maybe. An overall enjoyable stay and Velin makes sure of that.
