Guest Reviews

• Mo Hofman (8/5): - Locatie De weg naar de locatie....uitdagend om met je auto daar te komen
• Ditza (9/5): -
• Jebavý (8/5): - Klidné místo s pěkným výhledem. Poněkud problematické parkování. Špatný i když ne nemožný výjezd k ubytování. Záleží na typu auta a nervech řidiče. Auto jsme raději nechali na placeném parkovišti u řeky.
• Jürgen (9/5): - Sehr ruhige und saubere Unterkunft mit wunderschönem Blick auf Berat.
• Cuaresma (10/5): No pude alojarme, pero la cancelación fue gratuita y sin ningún pega -
• Jindřichová (9/5): - Vše bylo v naprostém pořádku paní byla milá a pozorná,,,,jídlo u ní nám velmi chutnalo,,,mohu je doporučit,, Cesta k ubytování ,,,akorát na ni dělali dělníci,,,,
• G. (8/5): - Ontbijt was prima.
• Thierry (10/5): -
• Sulaiman (10/5): -
• Stéphanie (10/5): - Très bon accueil. Logement très propre. Emplacement idéal. Je recommande sans hésitation.
• nongyer (9/5): -
• Lena (8/5): - Die Anfahrt ist speziell!! Es geht super steil nach oben. Falls man wenig gepäck hat würde ich das Auto unten an der Straße parken und dann hoch laufen. Sonst hat uns alles sehr gut gefallen.
• Evens (10/5): merci pour tout - j'ai vraiment aimé l'accueil chaleuseuse de la propriétaire
• Molly (10/5): -
• Rago (8/5): Je recommande fortement. - Bonjour nous avons eu un surclassement vraiment magnifique on remercie encore Les propriétaires. L’accès est compliqué en voiture. Il est préférable à se garer en bas et monter à pied je pense. Ensuite je pense que améliorer le parking retirer le sables la voiture
• Liliana (10/5): - Gostei bastante da simpatia da proprietária e a limpeza que a casa tinha . Poderia ter microondas
• Manon (10/5): - Très confortable Vue incroyable 15 min à pied de la citadelle Route très escarpée pour y aller
• Guest (10/5): Genial - Todo genial. La habitación era amplia y estaba limpia. Sólo pasamos una noche pero tuvimos todo lo que necesitamos. La mujer que nos atendió fue muy amable. La subida en coche es un poco complicada pero se puede hacer, sólo hay que tenerlo en cuenta.
• Arben (9/5): Bello - silenzio ed aria pulita
• Raju (10/5): . - . .
• Jan (9/5): - Fantastic place
• Jakub (10/5): - Ubytování bylo čisté, pohodlné s krasným výhledem na klidném místě. Lze zakoupit vynikající snídani. Lze parkovat na pozemku.
• Sharon (6/5): Difícil llegar - Relación precio calidad La llegada al alojamiento es altamente complicada, los taxis se niegan a subir y en auto es todo un desafío. Es una subida empinada empedrada, caminando casi imposible. A pesar de haberme comunicado con la anfitriona y preguntarle cómo llegar no me advirtió nada de esto. Además no habla inglés ni hace esfuerzo para comunicarse. Está limpio y es relativamente cómodo.
• Tibbii (6/5): - The owners were very kind and friendly. They helped me park at the accommodation by guiding me, since it wasn’t the easiest road to drive on. Not too long of a walk to the restaurants. The hill up to the accommodation was pretty awful. Difficult to drive up by car, especially a rental car. Steep, with poor road surface and very tight. It works to walk up and down, but not the most comfortable. Especially not during the day in the heat.
• Vanesa (8/5): Muy bien. Recomendable - Habitación cómoda y limpia. Parking en la misma casa. Bien ubicado. El camino para llegar es empedrado y con el coche cuesta un poco, más los de alquiler. Pero con cuidado se puede llegar.
• Vanessa (10/5): Perfect!! - The apartment was perfectly clean and tidy. It was very comfortable and very well maintained. The host is super friendly and kind. They even offer the service to take us to the bus station, which was a plus!!! Climbing the hill could be very challenging also in summer, but in the end, it is worth it. The place has an amazing view. If you have bags or don't want to walk they offer service of taxi at a very good price.
• Sophia (6/5): Lage und Preis okay aber Personal schlecht - Das Zimmer war groß. Das Paar, was den Raum vermietet, konnte kein Wort englisch außer als es am Ende im Geld ging. Wir kamen an und haben fragen gestellt, die alle nicht beantwortet werden konnten weil sie uns nicht verstanden haben. Es gab auch kein Interesse, sich mit uns auszutauschen. Insgesamt sehr unfreundlich. Das wlan Passwort war falsch und wir haben keinen Schlüssel für die Haustür bekommen. Die Kommunikation (über eine Taxifahrt am nächsten Morgen) war sehr schwierig. Sie waren stur und sind gar nicht auf uns eingegangen. Am Ende hieß es immer nur „Cash, Cash“ und das war alles
• Nike (10/5): - Sehr schön sauber und die Hausdame war sehr zuvorkommend und hat uns sogar Trauben mitgegeben von ihren Sträuchern. Man kann auch einfach mit dem Auto vor der Haustür parken was sehr praktisch ist.
• Maurine (10/5): - Logement très propre. L’hôte ne parlant pas notre langue mais tellement gentille et aux petits soins ! Logement parfait dans Bérat je recommande
• Laura (10/5): - The landlady was very kind and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. Very nice view from the house on top of the hill
• Tom (9/5): - Een mooie ligging, tussen het kasteel en de benedenstad. Wij daalden te voet af, met de huurauto op deze weg zagen we niet zitten. Prima prijs-kwaliteit verhouding. Goede airco op de ruime kamer, ontbijt op het terras met mooi zicht op de bergen. De communicatie was wat moeilijk, het ontbijt kon niet later dan 8:15 omdat het anders te warm werd. Maar dit zagen we niet als een groot probleem.
• Mar (8/5): Estuvo bien, relativamente cerca pero con una buena cuesta - Buen desayuno. La habitación amplia, oscura pero correcta, con AC. La anfitriona no hablaba nada que no fuera albano pero conseguimos entendernos. Estaba en una cuesta muy pronunciada, subir con el coche fue una odisea, nos derrapó un poco porque no está bien asfaltada la carrera. Para bajar y sobre todo para volver es una buena cuesta.
• Maya (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean and quiet private room with wonderful view. I was a bit tired from the traveling but I got energy up here. I was quite not sure that she asked me to cancel the booking when I arrived ( and to other guests as well) but it was hard to get the place as the long slope was intense and also hard to find new place in the evening, so I told her that was not acceptable. Otherwise, I had great time! Thank you so much for the breakfast! Really nice mummy.
• Unnikrishnan (9/5): Superb -
• Charles (10/5): Perfect peaceful stay - Very comfortable and peaceful room, a little uphill but a much nicer approach to the castle this way. I would certainly recommend it. Everything was fine
• Jonathan (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent stay and extremely nice hosts!! It's up a very steep road, so if you have luggage the hike will be a very tough 10-15 minutes - I recommend a car or taxi, unless you want the exercise.
• Tim (10/5): A peaceful stay in Berat - Very nice room in a peaceful area, beautiful view of the mountains. The bed was very comfortable and the breakfast was delicious. Recommend
• Anna (10/5): Exceptional -
• Heiszig (10/5): Exceptional -
• Ivor (9/5): Superb -
• Leah (10/5): Wonderful place to stay with very kind guest. - The room is clean, with all the things you will need. I never had any problem or concern. It is a very good place to stay on your holiday. Highly recommended! Nothing! Everything is good.
• Romain (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was perfect : hosts are very helpful, they offer taxi services to/from Berat bus terminal or other locations. Breakfast was always available and at very reasonable pricing. The whole place was spotless.
• Sarah (10/5): Exceptional - Our host was so lovely and welcoming. She prepared a lovely breakfast each morning, where we ate looking over a wonderful view. The room was very reasonably priced too. If you are driving, the road up to the accommodation can be quite steep, but it is worth it for the lovely view!
• Malgorzata (8/5): Very good -
• Ondřej (8/5): Very good - Good private parking Path is hard but it is doable :-).
• Aurelija (8/5): Very good - Very peculiar place - a room filled with mirrors. We found it enchanting. Simple place but really feels cleaned and taken care of. It's a bit confusing to find the place - never go up through the stairs (it's a dead end despite what gogle maps directions). It require some stamina to go up to the place if you are traveling without the car, especially if during mid day.
• Jose (10/5): Exceptional - Great experience and great value for money. The view was amazing and our host was very nice and welcoming. Definitely recommended.
• Demiraj (10/5): Exceptional -
• Barbora (9/5): Superb - Great location to the old town and also to the castle. Parking inside after an adventurous road, but the owner would do the parking for you. Fridge in the room. A bit of a grandma style. Missing mosquito net in the room (there was one at the toilet).
• Eleanata (10/5): Exceptional - Beat place! Highly recommended!! The cleanest, the comfiest, the best! -
• Adam (10/5): Exceptional - Great view. Clean apartment. Awesome breakfast. Lady doesn't seem to speak english very much, but she's still very friendly. Be carefull on that bumpy road uphill to the aparment.
• Candelaria (8/5): Very good - Really enjoy stying here! 🫶🏼
• Diana (10/5): Exceptional - The house is very clean and we had everything we needed. It is also well positioned, with great views. Amazing breakfast. The owners don't speak english but we managed to understand each other. Bonus points, we received some apricots from their own garden :)
• Matteo (8/5): Very good - Nice position, clean and very cheap. They have parking even if the street is very steep The street is quite steep
• Susannah (8/5): Very good -
• Liviu (10/5): very nice double room in Berat - nice host, clean and relaxing, nice garden and view -
• Mel (10/5): Beautifully clean & fantastic value for money for Berat! - - Excellent value for money. - Sparkling clean! - Great shower. - Felt safe & secure. - Beautiful views & nicer than the photos show. - Overall very good and not far to walk into Berat. 😊 - Everything was perfect apart from there was a kettle but no teas/coffee which would have been nice.
• Aslanooo (9/5): Superb - The owner is super nice, she owns the place, and you'll feel like at home
• Błażej (10/5): Exceptional - Our stay was Perfect. Everything was great. Just Pay attention to quality of the Road, because apartament is quite high.
• Alexandra (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was wonderful ☺️. It's a great family guest house in a nice and quiet place. The host was very kind, the guest house had everything we needed, very comfortable and clean. Great budget option.
• Kamil (8/5): Very good - Quiet, clean room with a nice view in a good location. Kind owner. There is no access to any kitchen or even any kettle to boil a water for a tea. In colder months it's an issue. Owner lady didn't speak any English, was trying to understand us and help so gave us a gas stove ...but without a gas.
• Anna (10/5): Exceptional - Very sweet owner. Very comfortable
• Luisa (10/5): Exceptional - Nice view, very nice hosts
• Jamie (9/5): Superb - The host is friendly. Doesn't speak English but we managed. Breakfast was delicious.
• Carme (9/5): Superb - It was clean and even we couldn't comunicate so much with the owner becasue she didn't speak english, she was really nice. The wifi didn't work in the morning.
• Yuki (9/5): A trip to experience the kindness of the Albanian people. - The room is clean. The view is very nice. Morning is taste good. Especially owner is very kindly, she gave us what we wanted to do. They can't speak English at all, so we have to use communicate a lot of time but it is not fatal. Sometimes the wifi is disconnected.
• Shota (7/5): Good -
• Paweł (7/5): Good - Very clean place! Although we booked room with breakfast, we didn't get it in the morning. The lady didn't speak even a single word in English so we had to talk to some guy over the phone. The price was finally lowered but we were short in thime and had to look for something to eat in hurry. The house is located on a hill so no way to get there by a car. This was no such info when we booked this apartment. The room was actually separated from the main house, old door were covered by thin plywood so you could hear every single noise from the house.
• Oliver (8/5): Very good - House is up the hill with steep cobblestone road. Great view down to the valley. Room is equipped with AC and fridge. Beds are comfortable. Very nice and helpful hosts. We were allowed to park the car after checkout to visit the castle. Check out until 9:00 is a bit too early. There is no fly screen. So we had to use AC although the night was cool.
• Hilal (10/5): Beautiful views, lovely host, great breakfast - Room was fabulous, clean and spotless - and the air con was a life saver in the heat! Location was fairly central, near the old historic sights. The host was so lovely - breakfast was delicious with an amazing view of the hills. When we were checking out early in the morning, she even rushed to pack the breakfast for us, which was really kind!! Thank you so so much! The place is up a hill, which might be inaccessible for those with mobility issues. The path home was poorly lit at night, which wasn't ideal, we used our phone torches. We still felt fairly safe.
• Manel (10/5): Nice place, helpful people and very good breakfast ;) - We spend two nights in this guesthouse. The people there was nice. We had an issue with our car and they make everything possible to help us to repair it. The room is comfortable with a good working air conditioner and a bathroom outside. Place is nice and its near to the city center and some good restaurants. If you go to Berat, you must stay there. Nothing
• Arantxa (9/5): Superb - Great breakfast, super clean and very accomodating host. Nothing really. The most we can say is that it is a bit tucked away from town but for us it wasn't an issue.
• Elizabeth (8/5): Lovely space to explore beautiful town. - Nice sized space. Location pin correct on google. Close to castle and quiet streets around it. Unpaved road last 100m towards it.
• Ole (9/5): Superb - The lovely lady was waiting for us when we arrived. The location is beautiful with a nice view. You get your own small apartment with everything that you need. Its clean, comfy and cozy. It is really steep to go up there, (almost) impossible to go up there by car. I would advise you to park your car on the main street along the river as it is for free :)
• Allison (10/5): Exceptional -
• Cieślik (10/5): Exceptional - This place own people with big hearts, that is good place to stay i. Berat
• Olena (10/5): Cosy and comfortable stay! - The room is very clean and cozy, everything is new, neat, and done with care and soul. There is a table in front of the room where you can have breakfast overlooking the magnificent green mountains. The hosts are very kind and attentive and do everything to make our stay comfortable. The bathroom has a boiler so there is always hot water. The room has air conditioning, which allows you to heat or cool the room. It is also worth noting the sincere breakfast, which the hostess served us in the morning! It was clear that this is a home cooked with great soul and love! Despite the mistake on my side, the owners were very decent and did everything to make us feel good to live there! I recommend everyone to stay at least a couple of nights in this cozy town in this guest house! -
• Sage (7/5): Good - I did not stay at this property. Online it says that dogs are welcome. Upon arrival I was told that my dog was not welcome. The communication was difficult because of a lack of English by the host. The gentleman I spoke with on the phone indicated they were aware it said dogs were allowed but did not know how to change it on the site.
• Ojvind (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic breakfast, different each day..
• Remi (10/5): Great Place! - It's a great place. The view is very nice. The room is quite big. The breakfast is great. A lot of food and it changes most of the time. I was there 1 week. The hosts don't speak English, but that was not a problem. You can feel that there are very nice people. For info, by car the road might be a bit hard to drive up, because there is no concrete. There are still cars driving up. I was by foot, for me it was fine to walk up, as I like to walk.
• Kristof (10/5): Exceptional - Good location, close to the citadel. Good wifi and breakfast.
• Н (10/5): Exceptional -
• Robss_92 (10/5): Come here!!! - Everything! It was perfect, we came earlier but could drop off our bags and when we came later the room was clean and smelled good. The host is very nice and friendly, we also received a tasty homemade brakfast. The B&B is not far from the park and the castle. We loved everything, come here and get spoiled by albanian hospitality! Grazie :) Position: it was just a little hard to find. It would be a good idea to make a video to send to the guests on their arrival day with the route description from the street to help tourists with no internet
• Giulia (10/5): The best breakfast and welcoming of Albania! - The best breakfast we had in Albania: it was delicious, with bagels, orange marmalade, eggs, feta, grapes, all home-made!!! We had some difficulties to get there, but the host has been very helpful, videochatting with us from France till we found the right place. A lady was attending us with a great smile, even offering us - for free - her tasty grapes. The apartment was profoundly clean and tidy, with a beautiful view on the old Berat.
• Jennifer (10/5): Exceptional - Absolutely wonderful! Good breakfast and lovely host. Plus, there’s a back path shortcut up to the castle behind the house. Can’t recommend enough.
• Danierie (10/5): Exceptional - very friendly host, breakfast included, wonderful view on the city as the house is located on the hill, guests live in a little extra house next to the private main house of the host family. very warm and comfy. everything was fine. we only had some communication struggles as the host did not speak english. nevertheless we managed it somehow and she was lovely
• Menthe (9/5): Superb -
