Guest Reviews

• wan qian (10/5): -
• hyeja (10/5): -
• Bernhard (10/5): - The apartment was very spacious and generously sized with two balconies and very comfortable beds. Magnificent city views from the 4th floor. Highly recommended! Easy parking and elevator access. ./.
• Joe (10/5): - Loved everything about this stay. Spacious, quiet, comfortable and spotlessly clean apartment a stone's throw from the bus station. Supermarket and a bakery (try their baklava!) right below. Great views of the castle and mountains from the balcony. It will take you about 15-20 mins to walk to the heart of the Old Town. Best of all, host Dorina was very kind and responsive. Amazing value for money. Highly recommended.
• Paul (9/5): -
• Fiammetta (10/5): Un'ottima base di partenza per visitare la bellissima Gjirokaster - Bellissimo appartamento valorizzato dalla squisita ospitalità di Dorina
• Petr (10/5): The perfect place in Girokastra - The building is located in the perfect place with the best view you can have - mountains of both sides of the valley, the castle, sunrise, moonrise. There is a store in the building. It's a bit far from the historical center but you can walk and you have a parking next to the entrance - isn't it perfect? The owner is very very welcoming, the apartment includes everything you need. Nothing
• Saliou (9/5): Appartement confortable et belle vue sur la ville - Logement très confortable. Belle vue sur la ville de Gjirokaster. C'est un peu éloigné du centre historique (à pied) mais très près de la gare routière, ce qui est pratique pour rayonner autour de Gjirokaster en bus.
• SYED (10/5): - The apartment was big, we had an excellent time, the location is good, rooms had a gallery with very beautiful view. If I come back to albania, I will choose this apartment again.the host was interactive all the time and was making sure we are comfortable.
• Kira (10/5): - Всё отлично. Хозяйка встретила нас (говорит по-английски !!! в отличие от многих других мест в Албании), передала ключи лично, проводила на стоянку и в квартиру, всё обьяснила, показала, прислала список достопримечательностей. Утром накрыла отличный завтрак. У нас была небольшая проблема - она нам помогла её решить. По факту, квартира не в туристичском центре, но до неё быстро добраться, можно взять такси. Если снимать, то там будет проблема с парковкой, узкие улицы, подьёмы, сложно парковаться и ездить. Мы специально снимали эту квартиру. Апартаменты в обычном здании, внизу есть супер и вроде аптека. Квартира 4-х комнатная, но мы использовали только 3, отличные матрасы на кроватях. Кондиционер в салоне и в одной спальне. В конце августа ночью не было жарко, днём и вечером мы всё-таки включали. 2 балкона, выход на них из 3 комнат. Квартира просторня, очень чистая, красивая, есть стиральная машина и дополнительный туалет, оборудованная кухня, чистые полотенца. Огромное спасибо за всё!!
• Scandinavia guest (10/5): -
• Jana (10/5): Genial -
• Joost (9/5): Good stay, friendly staff and clean rooms - Spacious rooms, friendly staff. And a supermarket and bakery just under the appartement. The location is just outside the center.
• Gerald (9/5): Détente et relaxation - La propreté de l’appartement et la gentillesse des propriétaires
• Hélène (9/5): - L'appartement est grand avec 2 salles de bain + grands balcons Situé au dernier étage, belle vue sur la ville. Commerces en bas de l'immeuble. Contact facile avec la propriétaire. L'immeuble dispose d'un ascenseur mais il est très lent. Pas de parking privé mais c'est facile de trouver une place sur le parking des commerces au pied de l'immeuble.
• Jess (10/5): -
• William (9/5): Convenient location with good facilities and an excellent host. - Very convenient location on edge of town close to bus station. Had all the facilities we needed. Particularly like the terrace looking over fields and river with mountainous background. Not quite finished off.
• Ermal (10/5): These apartments are the best solution to wander in the Gjirokastra city and moreover. - All of us were satisfied with these apartments. The best locations to reach all the destinations in the easiest way a) Beach in Ksamil/Saranda, b) Old Bazaar in Gjirokastra, c) Permet, d) Greece Border. The Bus Station is 10 m distance from DAI Apartments. Rooms are spacious, very clean and comfortable.
• Sopbau (10/5): Exceptional - Nice place away from the city center. It offers you everything that you need to disconnect. The walk to the old town is interesting. The host is excellent and very approachable. You have a supermarket and a bakery just outside. What else do you need right.
• Richard (10/5): Exceptional - Wonderful apt ; large space and great location. Dorina was great host.
• Hildegunn (9/5): Superb - Clean, comfortable, quiet. Big apartment, good value.
• Dan (10/5): Large affordable apartment on main road in Gjirokaster - Very large apartment for an affordable price. Host was very nice. Beds were comfortable. Bakery under the apartments was very yummy and a small supermarket next to it for any other items. Definitely need to make sure you coordinate ahead of time when you will be arriving.
• Jurijus (8/5): Very good -
• Ana (10/5): Exceptional apartment, impressive view, very clean and comfortable. - I was in DAI apartments in October. We were a group of 5, toddler included. The location is super easy to find. The apartment is very spacious (plus 2bathrooms, 2 balconies), super clean and comfortable. Great view of the city, especially the castle. Lots of natural light. My toddler was especially happy because there was a bed fitted for him and a basket of toys to play with. The host, Dorina is very nice and warm, she was very responsive and supportive during our whole weekend. I definitely recommend this place and I will be back for sure.
• Paul (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment is beautiful and fully renovated. The location is perfect! There's so much you can walk to. The host was super friendly and helpful.
• Ignacio (9/5): Superb - The apartment is amazing. Spacious, three bedrooms, fully equipped. Great value for money and ideal for families or groups. Washing machine is a nice bonus. Grat place to stay in Gjirokastra. It is important to communicate the exact time of arrival, so Dorina can be there for the check-in.
• Malek (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent experience. clean , tidy and wide space apartment. . .
• Morgan (9/5): A lovely apartment - The apartment was very clean and comfortable. It had everything we needed for our stay. There was plenty of room and there was a supermarket and bakery very close by. The apartment is situated about a 30-minute walk up to the castle. If you have a car you can easily drive there. The host was lovely. She gave us good advice and made sure we had everything we needed. Nothing. I would really recommend staying here.
• Floriana (10/5): Exceptional - Me and my family had a great time in the apartment. The apartments are big and spacious and very clean. The location is very good because is in the Sentrum! We really liked the owner because she brought toys for our kids and also cookies when we left!! We highly recommend this place!!!!!
• Dasgupta (10/5): Exceptional -
• Damiana (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kristjan (10/5): It's the best deal you can get - Everything was well arranged, there was plenty of space and all the necessary liabilities for a comfortable stay. The land lady was very nice to us and available. The ambient was clean, and comfortable it felt more like home rather than a random apartment. I would recommend to anyone wanting to visit Gjirokastra or any place near Gjirokastra. Definitely coming back some time soon. ALSO THERE ARE PLENTY OF PARKING SPOTS! Considering all of that, the value per money is really worth it.
• Tore78 (10/5): Exceptional - Very big nice apartment. Parking behind the building, and a grocery store and bakery on the ground floor. Had a nice view of the old town and castle from the balcony. If walking to the center of old town it's a 30 minute uphill walk.
• Mirjam (10/5): We can only recommend DAI apartments! - A spacious, modern, clean and great apartment on walking distance of the city centre (about 10-15 minutes walking), free parking place and just above a very good bakery that sells good bread, cakes and pastries! Also a supermarket and vegetable shop nearby. The apartment has everything you good possibly need. The host, Dorina is very helpful and hospitable. She even printed our flighttickets for us a we received a box of very tasty cookies! We can only recommend DAI apartments!
• David (10/5): Exceptional - Confortable Apartments! It has a bakery and a supermarket downstairs, very convenient. Very helpful host!
• Javier (10/5): Perfect stay in Gjirokastër - Dorina is an amazing host, responsive, well-prepared, receptive. Beautiful view of the Old Town and Castle with the mountains in the background Lots of space, spotless clean, comfy bed, fully-equipped for your stay Convenient location in front of the bus station, supermarket downstairs, near shops and bus to the Old Bazaar
• Susan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Susan (10/5): Modern, spacious and very conveniently located apartment. - Couldn't be happier with the location, facilities and attention from the owners. We considered staying in the old town, but it was so much more convenient to be in this well equipped modern and spacious unit which has a big sunny balcony with a marvellous view towards the old town. We were able to easily walk to the old town (without our bags!) when we wanted to do some sightseeing. Being right next door to the bus station, a bakery, a supermarket and a cafe made it super convenient. We even had an elevator to get to our apartment, unlike some of our stays in older locations in other towns.
• Diego (8/5): Great place to stay if you hvae a car to go around - Big house It was not that close to the center but the apartment and attention was great
• Aidan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Manuel (8/5): Really nice stay, very big and modern house, comfortable and spacious - Size and modern furniture, contact with owner None apart from a small smell in the house
• Evelyn (10/5): Exceptional - Spacious and clean apartment with good location. Owner.
• Mareksu (10/5): Exceptional - Very spacious and spotless clean! The bakery, supermarket and cafe downstairs was very convenient. The host was very nice and friendly, welcoming, and spoke very good English.
• Alan (10/5): Gyrokastra on the flats - Great apartment. Great view of the stone city in the hills. It was only 40lek bus ride each way and I enjoyed the location between a great bakery and an Aldi
• Richard (10/5): Great apartment. Great value. Would definitely recommend. - Owner, Dorian, was particularly helpful and met us at the bus station to show us where the apartment was. Located right by the bus station. Apartment was spotless and spacious.
• Marko (10/5): Exceptional - The hosts are very polite. Everything was fine. The acomodation worth every penny :)
• Louise (9/5): Superb - Clean apartment, toys for the kids, parking, easy to find, host was communicative
• Julian (9/5): Superb - Location near public transport. Clean & big space.
• Martin (9/5): Great, spacious apartment - Our host was delightful and very responsive to our requests. The apartment was very spacious and had a good view across to the city. There was a convenient supermarket and bakery downstairs. Nothing really, however, I am a light sleeper and the noise and vibration from the bakery downstairs preparing bread during the night for the following day kept me awake. There isn't anything our host can do about this and I only mention it if other guests are light sleepers.
• Maciej (8/5): Very good - Empatic and very helpful owner. The apartament with huge surface and comfortable bedrooms. Spacious bathroom👍
• Marsela (10/5): Exceptional -
• Yafeng (10/5): Exceptional - The location is great, just opposite the bus station. The host was so friendly and helpful. The flat is spacious with two balconies.
• Frank (10/5): Exceptional - Very spacious apartment. Nice host.
• Rachata (10/5): I would give 15/10! - Everything was far more expected! - Big and cozy apartment. - Everthing is clean, fully equip and function. - Perfect panorama city view and mountain range from other side. - The host was very kind and care. Nice location! - Bakery and Super market just under the apartment. - Bus station just cross the street. - Just 30 mins walk up to the oldtown (or you could ask the host for how to get the local bus to the oldtown.) Highly recommended!
• Mark (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kiorewai (10/5): A perfect home base in Gjirokastër. - There is so much to like about DAI Apartments. Dorina is a very hospitable host and really makes you feel welcome. For me, proximity to the bus station was a bonus and once I figured out the local bus to the old town, the distance from there wasn't a bother. The apartment itself had two sunny balconies, stunning views, a well equipped kitchen, comfortable lounge, a washing machine with washing liquid supplied (very useful after weeks of travel), and three bedrooms! A lift in the building is also great to have. On the ground floor of the building there is a bakery and next door there is a supermarket. If you had your own car, this would be an excellent home base for exploring this part of Albania. A slightly too spongy mattress on the master bed.
• Chris (10/5): Exceptional -
• Mueller (10/5): Highly recommended!! I would stay there again without doubt :)! - Everything! Highly recommended! I would definitely come back! Dorina, the manager, is super nice and makes one feel very welcome! She really cares a lot and I'm very grateful for that! The apartment is clean, spacious and quite new in a new building. It has all amenities for a comfy and nice stay! It is perfect for couples and families as well. There are 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a big living room and a kitchen, which is perfectly equipped to prepare a bite to eat. Further there are 2 balconies with sitting possibilities for eating or relaxing. It also has a washing machine with washing powder provided. Down is a supermarket, a bakery and a fruit shop. Busstation is just close by. To the old town is about 20-30 minutes walking distance. In case someone is too lazy to walk, there are constantly buses operating or taxis! The building is next to the main road. Hence there is the noise of the traffic, but it gets quite quiet at night. However, this was not a big problem for me personally. Just to mention for the sake of completeness.
• Jacques (10/5): super place, clean and close to everything! - location is excellent, you don’t want to drive in the old town. walk uphill to old town is about 30 . appartement was super everything was great shower fridge wifi market and bakery a few feet away.Host is the best we had, inquiring if we need anything.
