Bansko has some good runs, although the long gondola ride up every morning cuts into your boarding time, add that to a cathing a bus every morning and your wake up call needs to be very early.
Just come back and although nursing a broken shoulder 'on the last day' had some good board time + improved through the excellent advanced lessons 'jo'.
Generally the food in the hotels is poor even though ours was 4 star.
Prices are no cheaper than uk unless you walk miles out of the centre.
Reps were ok when you could manage to find one but very dull on the organised events.
Upon injuring shoulder reps had a good laugh but offered no help regarding aftercare or how to handle insurance claims ect.
If your going for the slopes this is for you,if your after an all round holiday look carefully

Had a fantastic holiday in Bansko. Skiing great for beginners or intermediates-good long blue runs, excellent ski school. Worth going to Hotel Strazhite if you can-it's comfortable & in a good location avoiding the huge building site that much of Bansko currently consists of. Rep v helpful. Food in hotel plentiful, food on slopes is junk food but at least reasonably priced.

The main problem the resort has it that the gondola has reached saturation in the mornings. The first hour & a half of each day was a race to get in the gondola queue before the hoards. With all the building that's going on in Bansko I don't see how the gondola system will be able to transport the additional people next winter.
