Friendly host and excellent balcony view. Great breakfast as well. The host was very helpful to phone us agencies to confirm the time for buses to Tirana and he also drove us down to the bus station when we checked out.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 10/10 – Unforgettable Stay in a Dream Location! This villa was an absolute gem and truly deserves more than 10 stars! Everything about our stay was exceptional. The location is unbeatable—tucked in a peaceful and quiet neighborhood, yet just steps away from the old castle, the local market, and directly across from the historic house of the famous writer Ismail Kadare. Walking through the charming streets felt like stepping into a storybook. The villa itself is stunning—comfortable, beautifully decorated, and full of character. Our room was spacious, spotlessly clean, and thoughtfully designed with both modern comfort and traditional charm. We especially loved the balcony, where we enjoyed morning coffee with a view and quiet evenings under the stars. One of the highlights was the amazing breakfast—fresh, delicious, and made with local ingredients. It was the perfect start to every day and truly added to the experience. But what really made this stay unforgettable were the fantastic hosts. Warm, welcoming, and incredibly helpful, they went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. Their hospitality made us feel not just like guests, but like part of the family. This villa is perfect for anyone looking to relax, explore, and experience the authentic heart of the town. I can’t wait to return someday. Highly, highly recommended!

AN AMAZING PLACE!!! A great view over the whole oldtown and castle. Private table overlooking it all while having a beer in the evening or for breakfast in the morning. The hosts are super welcoming and they came to pick us up after we got a bit lost on our way with our car. The appartment is super clean and comfy! Easy walk to the castle and old town, and the walk up isn't too bad at all. Not too steep. Would have liked to spend a few more night here for sure

We had everything we needed. There was a clean room, hot water in the bathroom and AC to make the temp a little bit higher in April. Smart tv with wifi access for kids. The location is a plus (all drivers with driving license should be able to get there) as this is not the city center and gives you perfect view all day long. Great breakfast and whole family really engaged to the business. We are happy we could be there.

The owners were amazing, and kind hearted people, they cared for us a lot. The language barrier wasn't an issue thanks to google translate, and their daughter, who also helped a lot with recommendations for the sightseeing. The panorama from the terrace was beautiful, and the breakfast was super delicious. We had a wonderful time, and I also fell in love with the city. I hope I can come back in the future :))
