Review of Bansko Resort – Disappointing Experience I recently visited Bansko Resort, and I have to say it was a huge disappointment. The staff is incredibly rude and unhelpful. They act like they don’t want to be there, and if you have any issues, don’t expect assistance. The ski slopes are unmarked, making it difficult to navigate, and there’s no ski patrol, which is extremely dangerous given the number of accidents I witnessed. The resort is overcrowded, with long waits everywhere, from the lifts to the restaurants. One of the most frustrating parts was the parking situation. You have to pay for parking, but that doesn’t mean you’ll actually get a spot! It’s a mess, and nobody seems to care. Overall, the experience was chaotic and unsafe. If you’re looking for a good ski resort, I’d strongly recommend going elsewhere.
