Location
We entered the room and was very impressed as soon as we walked in. The room was very clean but the carpet was a bit dark in a few spots. We had a two floored apartment with spirally stairs which where quite dangerous.
In our room, we had a very basic kitchen with a microwave and kettle. However the fridge was pathetic as its about the same size as a pillow, remembering there were 6 of us staying in this apartment!
Downstairs, we had a double bed which pulled out from a sofa. We also had a one seated sofa with a TV, two air conditioning units and a balcony. Upstairs we had a en-suite, which included a toilet, shower and bath. Two single beds, mirrors, plenty of wardrobes and another room with wardrobes and a double bed with a balcony.
The pool was very clean but sometimes we found the pool to be very cold. As for comments concerning the state of the pool, I couldn

The rooms are ok but have carpets and they are in need of a good clean, also when we asked where the gym was as we were told it was broken,only to discover it was being used as staff quaters for the cleaners, it also offered other facilities but many were not usable.
I have got to say if you want a good holiday and want to spend time in the pool, then going to this hotel would spoil all that.

The carpets were filthy, with a lot of very dodgy-looking stains but the standard of day-to-day cleanliness was fine. We were quite impressed with the cleaners but were disturbed to find that the 21 lev (quite a lot by Bulgarian standards) my son left on his bed when he went to breakfast had been pocketed by the cleaner when we got back. When we asked her about it she gave it back - we assumed she'd thought it was a tip but it wasn't our last day so it was a bit embarrassing.
The pool was a big hit with the children and loungers were free (although you did need to be quick with your towel to reserve them). However, the pool was in a poor state of repair and had many loose and missing tiles. By the second day my daughter had cut a flap of skin from her toe from a broken tile in the bottom of the pool and later in the week a boy had to get an ambulance to hospital to treat a gashed foot (I think that's been reported in one of the other reviews). The hotel did not have an accident book or first aider and this kind of thing seemed quite common.
The hotel didn't seem to have all the glossy facilities suggested in the brochures (and even in it's own literature int he hotel). I never found the excercise room and the table tennis table was broken and rotting under a tree by the pool.
The low point of our holiday was on the day before we left when we awoke at 6.40am to find our room door wide open and

The hotel itself is small in comparison to the big high rises that surround the area but this was most defiantly a bonus because it meant that you did not have to fight for a spot by the pool.
The rooms are very clean and have a TV and air-conditioning. The best part of my holiday was the hotel staff who where so very friendly and spoke very good English.
The hotel is situated a perfect distance from the beach (2 minutes) and right next to a 24 hour medical centre, a 24 hour shop and the bus stop.
The buses run every 15 minutes and are extremely cheap. Food and drink is also cheap. The pool was a little chilly but this was a blessing when the air temperature was 38-40C! This hotel and staff can not be faulted and help make my holiday a perfect two week.

On arrival at 4.00 am with two children we entered our room to find two maids sleeping in it, not a great start.
Breakfast was like a canteen.Food okay although you ordered a plain omelette and got burnt egg and bacon.
Hotel was clean, towels changed daily, sheets changed every three days.
The rooms had air conditioning a definite must have.
On a few occasions people's bags nearly got stolen by people just popping in to the hotel.Staff turned a blind eye.
The pool at first seemed okay but by the end of the fortnight it was falling apart,the tiles at the bottom of the pool could be collected like seashells at the beach.
Also we thought that with you not being allowed into the pool after eight that it was because it was being cleaned. Not a chance as we saw all you had to do was ask or tell the staff you were going in.
The so called lifeguards lay about sunbathing all day and when the pool was empty the all had a wee swim then went back to sunning themselves.Glassess and ashtrays were left everywhere.One wee girl had a coke in a glass bottle and she drop it she got charge 1lev not much I know but why not have plastic bootle and glasses.
The gym had one treadmill.
The staff bar two did not give a hoot all in it for a holiday.There was one apartment which they all stayed in and thought nothing of cavorting around trying to impress the other staff.
No entertainment at all except one Bulgarian night barbecue, not up to much. Music during the day was the choice of the staff for the wee ones (they had Now63, when asked to play this thay turned it down or skipped songs).
Will never go back to this hotel.
The location of the hotel was not for the faint hearted. You had to cross the main road to get to the beach. It had a pedestrian crossing that never worked, it was like playing dodgems and not funny.

A lot of building work going on around hotel but this never bothered us.
Bar/restaurant does not close untill last guest leaves
one night was 5 am.
Rooms cleaned every day. Advice for anyone going to this hoel next year they will be extending this hotel but was told will be finished within a year.
Balkan brochure shows old photo of hotel there is currently 4 buildings not 3 will be 6 next season.
Would recomend this hotel and will be going back in 2007.

The dining area is clean and comfortable and bar meals are served throughout the day. Breakfast is quite basic but there is plenty of choice, cooked food is mainly beans, potatoes and onions, hot dog style sausage and scrambled or fried eggs. There is also a cold buffet selection. Free coffee (very nice) and orange juice.
The hotel is located on a main road with a bus stop and taxi rank just outside. Although the road is busy there is very little traffic noise in the hotel. The beach is a 2 minute walk away and the resort centre about 10 minutes.
The rooms are quite large and airy. Beds are clean and comfortable. Air conditioning is spot on, although there are some condensation marks on the wall where the units are situated. Plenty of cupboard space, a couple of armchairs and the floor is carpeted. The double glazed windows are very good at keeping out poolside noise. The bathroom is good although there are no baths or shower trays. The water from the shower simply passes into a drain hole in the tiled floor, this can cause a problem if the drain is not well positioned as water can gather around the toilet base.
The staff on the whole are very friendly and polite (although one receptionist had an air of disinterest).
The maids are excellent and don't bother you if you put a 'do not disturb' sign on your door. The towels and linen are changed regularly but they do not make your bed (not that this was a problem) they replace the bottom sheet and the pillowcase and leave the rest folded on the bed.
The pool is okay but rather cold, although this didn't seem to bother the kids! There are plenty of sunbeds but they are the hard plastic type without any padding. The poolside bar is great and plays a wide selection of music throughout the day, the volume is turned right down about 8 p.m.
The exchange rate at the hotel was not as good as other hotels or the Crown Exchange booths (do not use the other exchange booths on the street as they never seem to give you the right amount and if you complain a couple of heavies seem to appear out of nowhere!)
On the whole I would highly recommend Sunny Day for what it is, a clean, comfortable, 3 star (Bulgarian rating) hotel.
