Guest Reviews
- Lisette (9/5): Great value, friendly staff. - Comfortable house, great for a family. Good location. Easy to walk to shops, restaurants, ATMs. Quiet neighborhood. Nothing.
- ammar (7/5): - L'emplacement du logement pas loin de la grande place, place de parking à l'intérieur de la cours de la maison, la cuisine bien équipée avec des ustensiles de cuisine bien fournis. Les clefs sont dans un hôtel à 10 min à pieds, le checkout se fait aussi là-bas du coup on perd du temps au départ.
- sophie (7/5): - Grand espace, l habitat traditionnel d Albanie et non impersonnel
L accès à la cour en plein centre ville, le calme de l espace
L accès a un lave linge
- Ridvan (9/5): J’ai bien aimé l’endroit et l’accueil. Top 👍 - Maison très agréable et l’endroit et très pratique avec pleins de commerces. Nous avons adoré ! Rien
- Shimi (10/5): -
- Raphael (10/5): -
- Kris (8/5): - Goede ligging op wandelafstand van het stadscentrum.
Prive stalling voor de wagen binnen het perceel van het huis wat makkelijk en veilig is - parking is immers geen makkelijke in Tirana centrum.
Het huis was net maar kraaknet nu ook weer niet. Het geheel kan misschien een opfrisbeurt gebruiken.
- Hana (10/5): Krásný dům - Krasny dum, uplne jine ubytovani, nez je obvyklé.
Mala loznice s jednou posteli je pruchozi. Za ni je loznice s manzelskou posteli.
Pokoj je velky, se sedačkami a jednou posteli. V pokoji je i kuchynska linka. Dum se nam po tme tezko hledal, i kdyz jsme dostali navod. Je zastrceny v bocni uličce.
- Maik (8/5): - Gute Lage, ungefähr 30 min zu Fuß bis ins Zentrum. Sicherer Parkplatz im Hof. Bäckerei zum frühstücken ca. 100 m entfernt Wir hatten bei der Buchung 5 Personen angegeben, es gibt aber nur 4 Betten. Für eine Nacht aber okay.
- Atdhetar (10/5): Court séjour agréable en famille prolongé - Tout: l'accueil chaleureux, l'espace intérieur et extérieur (cour/jardin), la propreté...
- Adrion (10/5): Court séjour en famille très agréable - L'accueil, l'espace à l'extérieur et l'intérieur, la décoration avec goût, la propreté...
- Lucija (10/5): -
- Zouzar (10/5): - Super localisation, hôte très accueillant. Très propre et spacieux pour un Airbnb. Je recommande Ras
- Ondrej Serek (8/5): -
- Dika (10/5): My First Choice in Tirana - A lovely traditional house full of love in the perfect location. The owners are super kind and helpful – they make you feel instantly welcome. Cozy, warm, and full of charm… a true hidden gem in Tirana. From now on, this will be my first choice whenever I visit the city!
- Nina (10/5): -
- jamel (7/5): - Hôte réactif et bonne communication
Flexibilité arrivée / départ
Stationnement indépendant dans la cour
Lits confortables
Climatisation dans chaque pièce
Grande pièce à vivre et grande cour
Proche centre ville Entretien général un peu négligé : fenêtres anciennes et celle de la salle à manger se ferme mal, moustiquaire abimé, serviettes rêches, table et fer à repasser usagés...
Pièces de nuit : ce qui est sert de 2ème chambre est en fait un corridor accolé à la chambre parentale
Chambre parentale : fenêtre donne sur la cour de la maison qui est accolée
Point à signaler: un bouton d'arrivée d'eau au dessus du lavabo sert à alimenter la maison donc attention à ne pas le couper par inadvertance
- Tortosa (10/5): -
- pascale (8/5): - Logement avec un bon rapport qualité prix, spacieux et fonctionnel Le logement manque d’équipement (surtout de la vaisselle) mais l’hôte nous en a prêté sans soucis. Le vrai inconvénient de ce logement est la propreté qui laisse franchement à désirer dans la cuisine en particulier...
- Kilian (10/5): - Wir waren hier als fünfköpfige Familie für 10 Tage und es war alles perfekt. Die Lage des Hauses ist sehr zentral, super ruhig, aber auch nah an der Autobahn, dass man schnell nach Durrës oder in den Süden gelangen kann.
Wir hätten uns keine bessere Unterkunft für das Entdecken von Tirana und Albanien wünschen können. Vielen lieben Dank 🙏
- Audrey (9/5): Nous avons adoré - Le charme de la maison, le logement spacieux entier à dispo, la petite cour attenante est un vrai + - Hôte très serviable et réactif. Le bruit des animaux à l’extérieur chiens, chats... quelques moustiques. Mais bon ça l'hôte n'y peu rien. Le wifi a peu de portée mais fonctionne bien dans salon/cuisine
- Mohamed (1/5): Unprofessional host - Location The host is probably the most rude host I ever encountered. There was a request for early check in and it was approved by the Host one day before check in.. On the check-in day, they refused for early check in and left the family waiting outside for around 3 hours, and not even apologizing for it.
- Alison (9/5): -
- Liz (7/5): Good -
- Denise (10/5): Exceptional - The house is beautifully decorated and the secure free parking a bonus. The air-conditioning was on, cooling the house in preparation for our arrival. A gentle stroll to the main square and lots of eateries within walking distance. The bathroom cannot be accessed from the first bedroom without walking through the second bedroom - a little awkward for 4 adults but a minor issue.
- Indenbirken (10/5): Exceptional - Peaceful and friendly and beatiful
- Terrence (9/5): A lovely place, with good hosts, in a great location with secure parking. - The location is great. Close to restaurants and a 25 minute walk to the town centre.Having a lock up car park is a big bonus. There is one main bedroom with a double bed but no privacy for the 3 single beds. So, great for a family or couple, but not so good for 2 couples.
- Karma (9/5): Extremely comfortable - Exactly like in pictures. Very clean. Beds and sheets pillows towels and washing machine available. Even extra if needed. The host is extremely helpful and kind. He referred us to a great resources for day trips and food. We probably couldn’t figure it out. But we couldn’t turn on the stove top to make coffee with the cafeteria that was available. although the host kindly explained how. Maybe it needs maintenance of we just couldn’t figure it out.
- Marin (10/5): Exceptional -
- Tiago (10/5): Such a nice place - Everything was perfect
- Andrea (8/5): Very good -
- Anja (6/5): Traditional flat - Spacious traditional flat at a reasonable price (50€/night). Helpful and friendly host who always answers quickly by mail and who provided us with water and cake when we arrived late at night. Parking available on the premises. Nice area with restaurants and supermarkets. Even though the flat is centrally located it is quiet in the livingroom. The sleeping room has windows to the street and is a bit noisier from the traffic in the morning, but it is completely fine. Try the cafe Aromal for breakfast nearby: we just loved it. Flat is approximately 15-20 min on foot to the city center and 25-30 min by car to the airport. For the price the flat is completely fine. But do not expect any high standards or luxury as you might from the very high rating. It is a rather dark flat, which is basic and somehow dusty and worn: mattresses on the small beds are old, the curtain is hanging crooked, there is not enough cutlery and crockery in the very simple kitchen, line and towels are clean but overall cleanliness could be better. Overall: to experience a traditional Albanian flat for a good price you should book it.
- Sophie (10/5): Wonderful apartment , fabulous hosts !!!!! - Authentic and wonderfully decorated apartment , hosts were so welcoming and assisted us throughout our stay .
Can’t recommend highly enough as a base to explore Tirana and Albania Nothing , quite perfect in every way

- Liubov (10/5): Exceptional - Pleasant and courteous staff who helped with all questions. Clean house, there is air conditioning. Thank you for your hospitality
- Nuno (8/5): Very good - The house is very big and the neighbour is very kind. Glejidis gave us great recommendations for Tirana and Albania in general, and was always available online for everything. The house is a bit far from the center.
- Revi (10/5): Exceptional - A very big, cosy and nice house. You feel like home! It's very well located. A big kitchen, a very large livingroom, a good bathroom, 3 separate places to sleep. A fridge with a freezer. Strong wifi. Really close to a supermarket and the best backery you can think off. A welcome snack and water. A washingmachine and a lot of space in the garden for the laundry, with a private parkingplace.
A really kind and helpfull host. Who also offers a breakfast buffet in his hotel Niche Boutique Hotel. Also a really beautiful hotel.
We would recommend both, the guesthouse and the hotel. And when we come back, we will for sure be in one of them. Nothing.
- Markéta (10/5): Exceptional - Looks exactly like on the pictures, good location close to main street, yet quiet
- Revi (10/5): Exceptional - Very specious apartment. In the middle of the city centre. There is a private parkingplace available. Everything was there to have a pleasant and convenient stay.
You feel like home. Very nice and helpfull hosts.
We will be back in 2 weeks, looking forward to it. We will then make use of the breakfast in their hotel Niche Boutique. I would recommend this apartment to everyone!! Thanks again Nothing

Very tidy and clean home with adequate kitchenware, a washing machine, and air conditioning. Nearby, there are numerous markets, restaurants, and cafes. Nothing much

Hosts very welcoming in English providing advice on restaurants and tourist attractions. Very helpful.

- Miodrag (10/5): Perfect choice - The kindness and hospitality of our hosts were at the highest level. Extremely pleasant, direct and helpful.

Just everything was perfect

The last but not least thing to mention is a safe parking inside of a private yard just a few minutes walk from the busy city centre )Highly recommended))) nothing comes to mind )))
- Christian (10/5): Spacious, quiet and cosy place to stay in Tirana - The apartment exceeded our expectations. It was more spacious than the pictures show, it was cosy, quiet and clean, and everything we needed during our stay was available. Also, the host was very helpful when we couldn't find our way to the place and also helped us with good places to eat. We warmly recommend the apartment.
- Agne (10/5): Exceptional - Very easy communication, welcoming host that also gave us wonderful tips for places to eat and visit. The house has a lot of historical pieces and items, which can be overlooked by people who don't know what it is. Very clean and well equipped.
