The hostel would be a great place, but needs lots of improvements. I may understand there's no budget and I've also been there in low season, but still, everything was left behind,it lacked control.

Much older than the photos, just a rickety shack.

My stay in the Hug Center Hostel was sweet but short!! Anytime I come back to Burgas I'll be sure to stay here. James the manager was super nice, lovely to talk to, very helpful and kind!! ! It's located just a bus away from the center with markets nearby. Recommend!! Has kitchen place, fridge, and two lovely hangout areas, at the ground level and an outside rooftop sort of area. Very cozy!! My room even had leftover material to make bracelets and paint conches, shells and pebbles ^^ Lovely!

Upon arrival, James gave me a private room even though I booked a dorm. He made sure I felt comfortable and gave some tips about what to do. The hostel had a chill, friendly vibe. When something happened to me, James immediately understood how stressful it was for me and went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and safe. How he handled it, made a huge difference. Would highly recommend!

There were bed bugs!!! The guy tried to gaslight me that there were some other insects coming from outside, but there were definitely bed bugs! They moved me to another room thank god, but did not sleep at all.

Great for the price and the staff were accomodating. It had a true nomad feeling to it. The main issue was with security as there were no locks/codes on the door. Happy to recommend, though note lack of security.

We loved this hostel! The people were so friendly and welcoming. Shortly after we arrived we were invited to join to the beach and then we all cooked together. And the rest of the stay was just as good. This a is volunteer-run, volunteer-built place, so set expectations accordingly, but for me, this was one of the best places we stayed on our trip. I recommend if you book with hostel world, to follow up with an email confirming the details of your booking. &BusB1 Izgrev goes to the front d...

My friend and I booked this hostel to stay for a week, not knowing what to expect. But by the end of our stay, we left feeling like we found a second home. James and the volunteers have done a wonderful job making us feel at home and at ease. They have nurtured a wonderful and quirky environment that makes you very comfortable being yourself and you get familiar with the place very quickly. To summarise, if you're looking for a memorable hostel experience, I would definitely recommend Hug Center

I simply didn’t feel comfortable in this hostel, there were no locks on the doors and it wasn’t very clean either.

Superbe Hostel dans Burgas. Petit havre de Paix en plein milieu de grandes tours d'immeubles calmes. Mais une fois dans la cour et dans l'hostel, on ne voit et n'entend strictement rien. 3kms de la plage et du centre. Superbe acceuil, responsables fort sympathiques, marrante, tres belle équipe qui vous met à l'aise et vous renseigne très bien. Chambres spacieuses et literie confortable. Arret de bus juste devant qui vous amène en centre ville, correspondance pour la gare et la station ...

The best thing in Burgas! I wish I could have stayed more nights, but I only had time for 1. Irene and James showed me around the homey space and picked grapes from their vine. I ate dinner that they cooked and was welcomed for their game of cards and chess and to spend the evening with them. It felt like a home away from in the middle of a chilly autumn. They even let me paint a mural on a section of their wall space! Not for those wanting a clean organised hotel-esque stay. Almost a homestay ...

Quirky hostel with a warm, warm welcome! Volunteers who run it often cook evening meals and residents are invited to join. Free grapes & fruit in season & walnuts. Stray cats also welcome so if you don’t like cats don’t go there 😊

It is far from city centre, and seems built from scratch but a unique experience
