Guest Reviews

• Julia (9/5): - Super Lage! Saubere Wohnung und sehr bequeme Betten mit ergonomischen Kissen. Fantastische Aussicht vom Dach, alles unkompliziert. Etwas schwerer zu finden und Schwierigkeiten bei der Verständigung..
• CAROLE (7/5): - L’appartement est très grand et bien placé Le bruit le soir
• Esther (10/5): - Tout était parfait ! L'appartement était idéalement situé, équipé et confortable. Nos hôtes étaient absolument adorables et d'une très grande gentillesse, de très bons conseils ils sont même venus nous récupérer à la gare et nous y amener pour nos prochaines visites. Je recommande vivement.
• Gëzim (10/5): Exceptional -
• Anonymous (9/5): Great stay in the Gjirokaster old town - The hosts for this property were fantastic. They were helpful and prompt with any questions and went out of their way to help us. The location was brilliant right in the centre of the old town. The property was clean and spacious. Nothing at all
• Silvia (10/5): Great - I liked that it was close to the ild town center. The host was very nice.
• Melina (5/5): Dissapointing - Only the location. It is next to cafes and restaurants. It was also clean. It's old. The entrance to the apartment is scary. You enter in a dark "tunnel" with discarded old furniture and you don't know if someone will come out of the darkness...and the apartment is in the ground floor. Also, the kitchen didn't even have the necessities and what it had was old and dirty.
• Xhoana (10/5): Exceptional -
• Maria (10/5): Perfect home away from home with a wonderful Host. Highly recommend - This apartment is a super brilliant find. Its right in the middle of town, yet tucked behind the restaurants and shops. Its on the ground floor, with just a few steps to get up to the entrance. It is a really big apartment, more like someones house. The living area is huge and comfortable with its own air conditioning system. the master bedroom has block out curtains and is own air con. Very comfortable bed with good pillows. The second bedroom with the two single beds is roomy and also air conditioned. All linen, including towels were lovely. Lots of hot water. Everything you can imagine was provided, to ensure you can cook your own meals. The kitchen was super supplied with plenty of pots and pans and cutlery and crockery and a coffee machine. Supermarket was just down the street (although it is quite a small one up in the old town, it had all we needed for breakfasts). Walk out the front and you are on one of the four main streets of restaurants and shops. We stayed here for four nights and felt like we were at home. It was just so comfortable and so well supplied. The host was brilliant and very responsive and helped us organise a ride across the border into Greece and down to Ioannina. The street out front had a DJ most nights till midnight. We had ear plugs so it didnt bother us when we wanted an earlier night. But most nights we were out with everyone else until midnight anyway! The town buzzes.

• Coralie (10/5): Very nice apartment. The location is perfect in the city center and the landlord is very nice! -
• Rinds (9/5): would definitely recommend - Ballo apartaments is located in a very central area of Gjirokaster, we visited during the folkloric festival, and the whole city was full of people and very alive. The apartament is comfortable, spacious, clean, perfect for four people. The view from the bedrooms is amazing there is also a small balcony to rest. The area is full of bars and traditional restaurans. The host was really kind helpful. Since it was during this particular festivity, one of the nearby bars was playing loud music, but at a certain hour they would turn it off.
• Daniela (10/5): Perfect location and friendly owner! - Much bigger than the photos, very well equipped. We only booked the night before and the owner was so friendly and lovely, allowing early check in. Location is perfect, you cannot get any better. We stayed with 3 young kids and it made accessing the town so easy. Would without a doubt recommend. Nothing!

Darvin the host could not do enough for us and sorted car problem for us with ease. An absolute gentleman and he expected nothing in return. nothing
• Ornela (10/5): Will go back again for sure. - Everything was amazing from the location to the super comfortable pillows and mattress, from the coffee machine to the 3 types of shampoos for each hair type. Location is close to the best places to drink&eat in Gjirokastra but also to the castle. There is absolutely not a single thing I did not like.
• Salihu (10/5): Exceptional -
• Kc (10/5): Amazing stay - Very nice, clean and cozy apartment. The location was great as well, right in the center of the bazaar. The owner was very welcoming and helpful. You can also easily find a parking space nearby it.

• Drini (10/5): Exceptional -
• Daniel (2/5): Dirty - Location is very good. The apartment was dirty and the kitchen was poorly equipped.
• Lil_k (10/5): Superb apartment, great location, wonderful host - A superb apartment, right in the middle of Gjirokaster old town. The host is incredibly friendly and helpful - he collected us from the bus drop-off point and drove us to the apartment, and also gave us some homemade produce as gifts. The apartment itself is really spacious, with a well equipped kitchen, very comfortable bedroom, great bathroom and a balcony that overlooks the town and the castle beyond. We had a wonderful week at the apartment, and if we return to Gjirokaster, we'll definitely stay there again. Highly recommended. (Pic of view from the balcony attached)
• Roy (10/5): Perfect self-contained lodging in the old center. - This is a gorgeous full apartment smack in the middle of the old town and bizarre neighborhood. The balcony overlooks a piazza with restaurants and so offers endless people watching with the castle silhouette behind. Full kitchen, clothes washer, a very nice and properly functioning bathroom. Hosts and family did everything they could to take care, including fetching cooking and coffee items. I would recommend and stay here again. All good. Some tips: the apartment has no sign, but is located one building up from the government offices. Steps lead to a well and benches. An iron gate leads to the apartment. Relatives live nearby and can bring the keys. Parking is a few hundred meters down hill on the neighboring street. If you need sleep, pull the exterior blinds down as the lights and bar parties can intrude.
• Ani (10/5): Exceptional - The apartment was great! Very clean and spacious. The host was very friendly and made sure everything was in place before our stay. The location makes this apartment a perfect stay for both, short and long vacations.
• Mersuli (10/5): Exceptional - The host was very kind and very helpful. The apartment was bigger than we expected, it is ideal for short and long term staying. Very clean and perfect location just by the best restaurants in the city, near the Old Bazaar of Gjirokaster.
