Guest Reviews
- Lili (9/5): - Belle et grande chambre, je dois souligner que c'est avec une cuisine partagée au milieu des deux chambres mais ce n'était pas un problème les personnes en face étaient calmes.
Vue sur la ville incroyable depuis la terrasse partagée
Une fois sur la place de parking plus besoin de bouger tout est accessible à pied Évacuation de la douche hors de la douche , du coup on a vite les pieds dans l'eau dans la salle de bain , un tapis de douche serait le bienvenue
- Augustinas (10/5): Amazing panoramic view and delicious breakfast! - The panoramic view from the terrace is amazing. The rooms are well-equipped and clean. You’ll find everything you need — coffee, and even bottles of water provided by the owner. The breakfast is worth every penny: eggs, sausages, cheese, fruits, honey, pastries, and juice.
- Joke (9/5): Super mooi - De ligging is supermooi! Je kijkt uit over de hele stad. Vlakbij 2 mooie bezienswaardigheden, het kasteel en een oud ottomaans huis. De kamer was als nieuw en alles zat er in! Met zorg ingericht! Host is superaardig en heeft ons goed geholpen. Ontbijt was top! We hebben enorm genoten Niets! Alleen de weg er naartoe is een uitdaging! Wel belangrijk dat je de instructies van de host opvolgt, die hij toestuurt!
- Ruud10 (10/5): Dokonalé ubytování v Gjirokastëru!! - Toto ubytování bylo dokonalé. Nádherný výhled na hrad a na město, parkovací místo u domu. Snídaně, na kterou budete vzpomínat. Vše uklizené a čisté. Pan domácí a paní, která nám chystala snídaně byli velmi příjemní a po každé prosbě nám vyšli rychle vtříc. Jak psali předchozí ubytovaní, pokud pojedete do Gjirokastëru, prostě si vemte toto ubytování!!! A cesty nahoru se nebojte, je to úplně v pohodě a pan majitel v případě potřeby příjede na pomoc.
- Mirthe (10/5): Heerlijk appartement met fantastisch uitzicht - Het uitzicht en het uitstekende ontbijt
- Maide (10/5): -
- Bartolo (7/5): Vista fantastica - Vista, personale, pulizia parcheggio, colazione, Per arrivare non é semplice , le indicazioni non sono chiare e arrivare in moto è difficile a causa della pendenza e della pavimentazione scivolosa. Inoltre per arrivare in centro c’è un piccolo dislivello non indifferente. Avremmo preferito trovare il boiler dell’acqua calda acceso. Purtroppo la notte non si dorme a causa dei cani che abbaiano
- kinga (10/5): - Everything was great, to get There can be difficult but when following the instructions from host then it's very easy, highly recommend
- N (10/5): Best choice 👌 - The location is perfect! It is near the castle and the bazaar so you can easily explore the best parts of the city. The house is so pretty, and the room very cozy. Everything is clean, and the view is amazing. Had an amazing stay here. The hosts are exceptionally friendly and helpful.
- Cedric (9/5): Schöner Ausblick - Auch wenn es anstrengend ist, aus der Stadt hoch zu laufen, da die Unterkunft wirklich ganz oben gelegen ist, lohnt sich der Aufstieg, da man einen atemberaubenden Blick über Gjirokaster hat. Das Frühstück war sehr nahrhaft und viel. Der Hausherr wirkte zu teilen etwas „hektisch“ bzw. gestresst (hat aber vielleicht einfach viele Termine und viel zu tun). Die Unterkunft war trotzdem klasse.
- Deml (10/5): - Gigantische Aussicht auf Gjirokastra und die Berge. Appartement zum Wohlfühlen.Der nette Besitzer kommt jeden morgen und bereiten das Frühstück vor Ort zu. Anfahrt mit Auto etwas schwierig, weil Google auf Wege und Gassen navigiert, die mit dem Auto nicht zu befahren sind. Unbedingt die Infos des Besitzers beachten.
- Patricia (10/5): - Wunderschöne Aussicht und top Lage. Der Vermieter war äußerst freundlich und hilfsbereit! Das Frühstück wurde liebevoll zubereitet und am Teller serviert. Wir waren rundum zufrieden und kommen gerne wieder!
Bei der Anfahrt unbedingt den Weg befolgen, den man vom Vermieter zugeschickt bekommt und nicht Google Maps.
- Max (8/5): - Appartements très propres et confortables. Cafetière et Capsules à disposition. Grande terrasse abritée avec une vue à couper le souffle sur le château et la vielle ville. Petit déjeuner copieux dressé sur la terrasse par notre hôte à une heure décidée par nous. La maison est sur les hauteurs de la ville, le Gps nous a perdus avec un vehicules 9 places dans les ruelles étroites et pentues. Petit moment de stress, nous avons appelé l'hôte qui est venu nous chercher. Un rendez-vous fixé aux abords de la ville pourrait être une solution !
- Faure (9/5): Très confortable, bon dejeuner, propriétaireaux petit soins - Tout Rien
- Céline (10/5): - Studio neuf, bien équipé et très confortable. Vue magnifique sur le château et sur la ville. L'accès en voiture n'est pas évident à cause de la configuration de la ville.
- Lapinskaitė (9/5): - We were welcomed each day with breakfast, variety of food offered, delivered really nicely. The place itself very beautiful, clean spaces. We stayed one evening at the terrace just to enjoy the city view. Gijorkaster a great location after all.
- Valérie (9/5): -
- Nina (10/5): Everything was Excellent! - Nice view, super friendly host, great facilities!
- Patrik (10/5): -
- Štefan (10/5): Gjirokater - A szállás csodálatos helyen van fent a hegytetőn. Gyönyorű tiszta maximàlisan mindennel ellátott, internet tökéletes,reggeli is szuper. A szállás alatt 100-200 méterre rengeteg szórakozási és étkezési lehetőség. A házigazda kedves. Bárkinek ajánlom, de autóval az menjen, aki tud is vezetni a macskaköves utcákon, mert azokon közlekedni az kihívás és sokszor nem centizésre, de milliméterezésre van szükség az utcákban. Azokat, akik az Osumi kanyonból érkeznének Gjirokasterbe a Google maps szerint, ami durván 70 km t jelez, el kell, hogy keserítsem, mert 30 km után véget ér az út (igaz dolgoznak rajta) , de a kerülő 240 km - de megérte.
- Jana Marie (10/5): - Everything was very clean and the view was Stunning! Perfect Location -walking distance to Castle ~13 min and to the old town 10 min. The Drive up is a Bit challenging if you are not an experienced driver. Breakfast was besutiful and so yummy! Host was very helpful as well
- BRIGITTE (9/5): - Très belle vue sur Gjirokaster, lit confortable et petit déjeuner très copieux Accès difficile compte tenu de la particularité de cette vieille citadelle mais le propriétaire est charmant et est venu sans problème nous chercher
- Kaja (10/5): - Everything is new and very clean. The owner makes sure you have the best experience. He gave us fresh fruits from the fig tree in front of the house 👌🏻! You get a beautiful view of the city and the castle !
- Simon (10/5): - Le logement est très bien, ça grimpe un peu depuis le centre mais la vue est magnifique.
Petit déjeuner au top et personnel très sympa La sale de bain est un peu petite
- Ursa (10/5): Amazing place to stay - Everything, the apartment, view, host - we also got some fresh figs :) Way to the appartment goes through the old town, which looks a but narrow at the beginning (it is not, I am just not used to it) but host came with his car and escorted us to the apartment. I really did not expect that and really appreciated it - at the end it was not that difficult as I expected.
- Maria Carme Bover (10/5): Excellent owner, installations, breakfast and view - Excellent owner, installations and view
- Martin (10/5): Besser geht es nicht! - Große Terrasse mit fantastischem Blick auf die Altstadt und die Burg dieser tollen Stadt. Alles konnte bequem zu Fuß erreicht werden. Anreise durch die schmalen Straßen war ein Abenteuer, aber diese Unterkunft war es mehr als Wert! Wir würden jederzeit gern wieder kommen! Das beste Preis-Leistungsverhältnis auf unserer Albanien-Rundreise! Neben liegt gleich das Zekate-Haus, welches einen Besuch lohnt!
Frühstück wurde liebevoll vor Ort zubereitet!Ich
- Maryam (9/5): - We truly loved our stay at Emblematic House. We had originally booked a double room, which turned out to be a bit too small, and on arrival we also noticed the light was not working. The host very kindly offered us an apartment free of charge instead, which was a wonderful gesture.
The accommodation is on the mountains, so you are rewarded with stunning views, but do be prepared to drive up some very steep roads. We also found that the address provided on Booking.com was not entirely accurate, so I recommend reaching out to the host directly for the exact location.
Breakfast was also absolutely lovely – thank you!
- Caroline (10/5): Belle adresse, bien située, accueil très chaleureux - Freddy nous a très chaleureusement accueillis et s’est rendu disponible pour nous conseiller sur les visites alentours. Le logement est propre et optimisé, c’est confortable et calme. Le logement est situé en haut de la vieille ville et la vue est absolument grandiose, sur la ville neuve en bas, sur le château à droite, et sur la montagne en face, incroyable ! On peut accéder à la vieille ville à pied, au château aussi et au pont Ali Pasha, situé à 30 minutes à pied. Le petit déjeuner est complet, que dis-je ! Il est royal. Et pour clôturer les nombreux points positifs, il y a un figuier, l’un des plus beaux et des plus fournis d’Albanie 😊 en savoureuses figues. Un grand merci à Freddy et aux dames qui gèrent cet endroit. Nous recommandons 💯
- Philippe (10/5): - Vue, confort et propreté du logement. Petit déjeuner copieux. Tres proche du centre. Acces en voiture delicat
- Nicole (10/5): Idyllic, excellent breakfast, great views - This guest house is so idyllic on the hill- with great views! The host is so accommodating and has thought of everything you need- kitchen facilities, water and the most amazing fresh breakfast served daily on the terrace was a great touch!
- Guest (9/5): Aanrader. - Heerlijk huisje. Bijna bovenaan de stad en vlakbij de typische te bezoeken items. Ongelooflijk uitzicht. Zeer vriendelijke host.
Parking. Standaard Albanees ontbijt maar zeer verzorgd. Echt genieten.
Rijden in de stad is een avontuur maar de host is ons komen halen en reed ons voor.
We hebben hier een leuke 2 dagen gehad Onze meisjes sliepen op een zetelbed. 1 helft was best hard. De jongste heeft er prima geslapen maar zelf had ik er niet graag gelegen.
- sophie (10/5): Un séjour fabuleux, un site enchanteur et une hospitalité appréciable, - La gentillesse et l’hospitalité de l’hôte, l’emplacement (vue magnifique sur Djirokastra, calme, à quelques minutes à pied du centre), les chambres très confortables et super bien équipées (une vraie cuisine, machine à laver). Le petit déjeuner est très copieux. Nous sommes restés 4 nuits, tout était parfait. /
- Alexia (10/5): Beautiful, comfortable accommodation with an amazing view! - Everyone was very kind and helpful! The accommodation had everything we needed!
- Sophie (10/5): Top op de top (vd berg) - Prachtig gelegen met subliem uitzicht over Gjirokaster! Ruime kamer met keuken, ideaal om eens iets zelf klaar te maken. De eigenaar is heel behulpzaam bvb voor een extra kookpot enz. Hij komt elke morgen ter plaatse om het ontbijt klaar te maken met brood, feta, confituur en elke morgen ander fruit. Ik was een tshirt vergeten en hij heeft dit via koerier kunnen sturen naar ons volgende hotel!! Als je niet gewoon bent van in stijle kassei-straatjes te rijden kan dit wel wat afschrikken maar de weg via het kasteel is heel comfortabel!! Dus geen google maps volgen !
- Merry (8/5): - De accommodatie is erg netjes en alles was goed verzorgd! De gastheer was heel behulpzaam en stond altijd klaar om vragen te beantwoorden. Daarnaast heb je erg mooi uitzicht!
- Daniel (10/5): Sehr empfehlenswert. Die Stadt ist - speziell mit einem Auto - abenteuerlich. - Die Lage und das Zimmer im oberen Stock.
Das Frühstück war ausgiebig und liebevoll.
- Stewart (10/5): Amazing location and property to visit the best parts of Gjiorkaster! - Nice property. Very well stocked with anything you could possibly need (dishes, utensils, glassware, pots/pans, iron/ironing board, washing machine, drying rack. The whole place was spotlessly clean, bed was comfortable, and a delicious breakfast was provided each morning. Parking is available onsite. Fantastic views of old town and just a short walk to the old bazaar, castle, and Cold War tunnels. We absolutely loved our stay here! A little tough to get to by car because the roads are narrow and there are a lot of one way streets that are not clearly marked. We were very grateful that the host met us to guide us to the home otherwise we would have gotten lost.
- Arty (10/5): -
- Anne-Laure (10/5): Un lieu reposant et très joliment pensé avec une vue imprenable sur Gjirokaster. - Superbe endroit au calme sur les hauteurs de Gjirokaster. Très bien équipé. Très propre. Terrasse avec vue fabuleuse. Super accueil d’Alfred et délicieux petit déjeuner par son équipe. Rien
- Christophe (10/5): Belle vue et appartement confortable - Très belle vue sur la ville. Appartement propre et bien équipé. L’hôte est sympathique et s’adapte à nos demandes. Le petit déjeuner est complet. Difficile à accéder en voiture. Demander à l’hôte de venir.
- Sibly (10/5): A delight 🤗 - Amazing views of the city Very helpful and welcoming! The apartment had everything we needed
- Raphael (9/5): - Die Terasse und die Aussicht sind wunderschön. Das Frühstück war auch sehr lecker und ausgiebig. Zimmer ist gemütlich und charmant eingerichtet. Vor allem ist der Besitzer freundlich und herzlich. Für Jemanden der wenig Erfahrung mit engen und sehr steilen Sträßchen hat kostet es etwas Überwindung die Unterkunft zu erreichen.
- Yakup (1/5): Teleurstellend verblijf – beneden verwachting😭 - Ik maak een rondreis door Albanië en dit was helaas het slechtste verblijf tot nu toe. Voor veel minder geld kreeg ik elders een uitgebreider en vers ontbijt. Hier was het karig en stond het te vroeg voor de deur. Op dag twee heb ik het ontbijt zelfs laten staan en ben vertrokken.
De voorzieningen zijn dringend aan vervanging toe: een ouderwetse wasmachine, een klein en onpraktisch strijkplankje, en een slecht strijkijzer. Alles voelt gedateerd en oncomfortabel aan.
Zeker geen €45 waard en ik raad aan om iets beters ter plaatse te zoeken. Mijn ervaring met dit verblijf was helaas teleurstellend. Bij aankomst werd ik direct naar mijn kamer gebracht en vroeg de host onmiddellijk om de betaling. Dit voelde erg ongemakkelijk en onprofessioneel.
Ik had deze accommodatie gekozen omdat er volgens Booking.com een wasmachine en strijkijzer beschikbaar waren. Helaas werkte de wasmachine niet goed en moest ik gebruikmaken van een alternatieve wasmachine met een erg vuile wasbak. Het strijkijzer was oud en werkte nauwelijks, waardoor mijn kleding niet goed gestreken werd. De strijkplank was zo klein dat ik op de grond moest zitten om te strijken, wat zorgde voor pijn aan mijn rug en nek.
Wat betreft het comfort: de kamer was gehorig. Ik kon voetstappen van boven horen en er was constant geluidsoverlast van blaffende honden buiten.
Het ontbijt was zeer mager: drie sneetjes brood, een klein potje boter en confituur, enkele komkommerschijfjes en tomaten, twee kleine worstjes en eieren. Hoewel ik had aangegeven om 9:00 uur te willen ontbijten, werd het ontbijt al om 8:00 uur voor mijn deur gezet. De eieren waren toen al gebakken, waardoor ik noodgedwongen om 8:30 uur ben gaan ontbijten om te voorkomen dat ze koud werden.
Mijn advies: één dag in Gjirokastër is voldoende. Voor een langer verblijf raad ik aan om ter plaatse een accommodatie te zoeken en er zijn betere opties voor dezelfde of zelfs een lagere prijs. Dit verblijf was de €45 per nacht absoluut niet waard.
- Laureys (9/5): Prachtig uitzicht! Mooie kamer. - Heerlijk en verzorgd! Jammer dat de kinderen in een zetelbed moesten slapen.
- Jasmin (9/5): Fantastic stay, lovely host, great view. - Beautiful view and balcony, lovely breakfast service and very quiet. Roads are quite difficult when driving here but the owner offered us a lift.
- Puk (10/5): Super! - Het uitzicht is adembenemend. Je zit mooi hoog op de berg waar je uitkijkt over heel de stad gjirokastër. Het is schoon en je krijgt s’ochtends een lekker ontbijtje terwijl je kijkt naar het mooie uitzicht. De eigenaar is ook heel behulpzaam en vriendelijk Niks
- Marina (1/5): The most complicated car park I've ever been to - Llegar a la casa y al parking es una ruina. Curvas empinadas con adoquines y giros muy cerrados donde no cabe el coche. Ponemos reseña negativa por no recibir ningún tipo de indicacion para llegar a la casa, con la dificultad que tiene. Sólo una ubicación de maps
.
Arriving at the house and the car park is a wreck. Steep curves with cobblestones and sharp turns where the car does not fit. We give a negative review for not receiving any kind of indication to get to the house, with the difficulty it has. Only a map location.
- Isaac (8/5): Wunderschöner Ausblick von der Terrasse und günstig stehenden Fenstern - Standort Zimmer, hatte alles was man braucht. Das Bad sah neu renoviert aus. Die Aussicht auf die Stadt und unglaublich schön. Man sieht auch die ca 15 Minuten fußläufig entfernte Burg. Panorama 🤩 Der Weg zur Unterkunft ist sehr Steil und end an manchen Stellen sehr eng! Gekonnte Autofahrer sollten aber kein Problem haben.
- david (10/5): - Une jolie maison qui surplombe toute la ville avec un personnel Freddy hyper accueillant et bienveillant. Nous avons passé 2 jours sur Gjirokaster ce qui nous a permis de visiter le château tranquillement et de voir ensuite blue eye. Nous recommandons 👍
- Sylva (10/5): Vřele doporučuji! - Dům je v úžasné lokalitě nad starým městem s výhledem na pevnost, je skvěle vybavený a majitel byl velmi milý. Snídaně byla sice oba dny stejná, ale chutná a bohatá. Moc se nám tam líbilo! Nemáme nic, co bychom vytkli.
- Guest (10/5): Hope to stay here again and again and again - All None
- Wim (9/5): - Locatie, ontbijt, terras, gastheer: allemaal dik oké boven verwachting goed
- Ayoze (10/5): - Ubicación y vistas espectaculares, amabilidad y buen trato, un 10
- clodia56 (10/5): - Un appartement tres bien aménagé dans le style du pays avec tout le confort, très bien équipé, tres propre, avec un excellent petit déjeuner.
Accueil d'une grande gentillesse.
En prime une vue sublime! Rien!
- Teresa (9/5): -
- Didier (10/5): - Un paradis sur terre, j'ai adoré comme mon donjon, la vue, l'accueil, le confort, le calme, le petit déjeuner. Super bien placé. Petit astuce après avoir reçu les coordonnées GPS, pratique, quand vous arrivez près du château, sol pavé, en voiture continuez comme si vous alliez au château mais vous descendez encore. Et longé le vieux centre en passant près du kinema et à droite et vous continuez en descendant puis vous monterez au paradis.
- Ceri (8/5): Excellent View - Excellent location for an incredible view overlooking Gjirokastër. Very comfortable bed. Really nice patio. We had an issue with the espresso machine not working and the owner quickly replaced it with a brand new one. We love to walk / hike so the 'hike' up to the property wasn't an issue but if you wanted to head out for a 'relaxed' walk or get a quick bite to eat / drink or a even a few groceries it could become very tiresome. Not a property for those with mobility issues or in the best of health. It would be difficult to find if relying on Google maps but the owner was very nice and met us. The bathroom is a bit of an issue with water not being properly contained in the stall and we found that the washing machine had a leak. Between those two the bathroom seemed to always be damp. No heating in the bathroom so for us (staying in March) it was very cold.
- Jiri (9/5): - Everything was good, the location of the apartment is on top of the hill, with a view of castle and mountains setting before the main terrace.
- TSAI JUNG (10/5): - 住宿位置非常的好,可以俯瞰整個Gjirokastra,這裡靠近任何老城區景點,隔壁有很棒的Zakat House,是不能錯過的歷史建築之一,另外這邊的晚上很寧靜舒適👍🏼 房子廚房設備齊全可以在家自己準備早餐&晚餐,還有提供咖啡機很棒~絕對推薦!
- Eva (10/5): - Newly equipped and clean appartment. Amazing view from the appartment and terrace. Great location, helpful owner.
- Romina (10/5): Άριστο - Πεντακάθαρο και πλήρως εξοπλισμένο διαμέρισμα.
- Jorge (10/5): - Preciosas vistas, relativamente cerca del centro. Fácil aparcamiento.
- Robert (10/5): - The hotel is located in the upper part of the city, close to the fortress with a stunning view of the town. The apartment was spacious and well-equipped with everything we needed. The owner was very friendly and gave us great recommendations on where to eat in the city, as well as helped us with anything we needed. Truly an excellent choice for accommodation.

- Igor (10/5): - Очень уютная комната, где было все необходимое. Даже больше, чем все. Удобство гостей продумано до мелочей. Кофе, средства для ванны, вся кухонная утварь вплоть до ножниц.
Квартира новая и идеально чистая. Я даже не знаю, как можно было создать такой уровень чистоты. Просто 20 из 10. Удобно добираться до основных достопримечательностей. Мы везде прошли пешком. И до старого базара, и до вида на мост Али Паши и до музеев.
Хозяин предоставил инструкцию, как лучше проехать до отеля по старым улочкам. Поехали по его рекомендации и добрались без каких-либо проблем.
Вид с террасы тоже впечатляет.
Рекомендуем.
- Romain (10/5): Top - The host is very welcoming. The kitchen and the room is fully equiped with water bottles. The wifi is great. The appartement is clean and the view really nice. The évacuation system like every where in Albania is in the middle of the bathroom which a bit strange when you are foreigner.
- Sara (10/5): The views from the terrace is amazing. Rooms are equipped with everything you need to enjoy your stay.The owner welcomed -
- César David (10/5): - Las vistas son preciosas. Alfredo nos ayudó muchísimo y fue muy servicial. Las habitaciones están equipadas con todo lo necesario para disfrutar la estancia.
- adailton92 (10/5): - Totul perfect de la locație și până la curățenie. Gazda este un om amabil. Am urmat instrucțiunile lui și am ajuns cu bine . Chiar și șofatul pe străzile înguste și în pantă din oraș mi-a plăcut foarte mult . Bucătăria este echipată cu tot ce trebuie. Locul este curat Parcarea este in curtea proprietății. .Statul aici a fost o experiență pe cinste. Dacă o să mai vin in acest oraș probabil că tot aici o să caut să stau. Salutări din România

- Iván (9/5): - The views from the terrace are amazing, as well as the views from the apartment bedroom. The kitchen was well equiped, the host replied very fast and was flexible! It’s difficult to arrive up there since it’s in one of the highest points of the old town. The parking spot is not easy
- Aleksandar (10/5): Highly recommend this place! - Great place to stay with the most incredible view! The property looked like it was brand new, had everything we needed, beds were very comfortable, bathroom was great, and everything was perfectly clean. It’s on top of a hill which is why the view is so spectacular, great place to sit on the terrace and enjoy the view while having a drink/something to eat. It also has a kitchen with everything we needed so we could cook a few meals, and even has a coffee machine. Location was good, close to everything you would want to see and to the restaurants. And the owner was a very nice guy, didn’t speak much English but was always willing to help with anything we needed. Would definitely stay again! The property is up on a hill which won’t be an issue for most people, but it was for us because our car is old and has a problem with the engine, so it was struggling to make it up the hill (though any normal car won’t have this issue).
Also don’t trust google maps, make sure you ask the owner for a map of which route to take if you will be driving there yourself.

- Judy (10/5): - We stayed in the studio and were very comfortable in this clean and well set up area. The host is generous with coffee supplies, and we could cook simple meals. The terrace is great with a magnificent view. The old city is very hilly and to explore involves hills and we found the walk up to Emblematic bearable. Zekate House is 20 metres on the same level. Well worth a visit, and they have a lovely bar to sit with the same fantastic view. Google maps led us astray, and the owner kindly rescued us. There is nothing to complain about for the residence, but don't trust Google maps. I notice we're not the first to be lead to impassable routes. The owner has suggested that he'll forward the best route in his notes.. Check these first.
- Marek (10/5): Unique & excellent accomodation - The view on the whole city, valley and mountains is just amazing! Excellent location. The apartment is very well and clever equipped with quality equipment and attention to detail. Owner is very kind and make you feel very welcome and as home. He come to pick us in the night when the navigation has led us to streets that cannot be passed with a car. -
- Hamam (8/5): Appartement correcte, belle vue - Jolie appartement avec une belle vue ! Personnelle très sympathique et place de park L’appartement étais très en hauteur et il faut être sportif pour aller en ville et revenir !
- Sian (10/5): - The view and location are stunning, overlooking the whole town but easily walkable to everything. (Beware some slight hills coming home but that’s what you get for the view!)
The owner was lovely and picked me up from my taxi when arriving late at night to make it easy to find.
Actually had the whole place and veranda to myself as the other two rooms weren’t occupied - was heaven!
Studio apartment was huge and had everything I needed for a couple of relaxing days reseting (washing machine, coffee, couch… a shower screen and curtain! ) Loved everything!
- Φώτης (10/5): - The location was excellent. The apartment was fully equipped and all the necessary were included. It's view from the balcony was very beautiful and the city looks like in the palm of your hand, where the magnificent castle is full of beauty. The host was very well informed and helped us with the necessary information. The experience was fulfilling, the city was beautiful and it's cuisine delicious. I recommend it to all of you!!!❤️
- Mania (10/5): - Great location. Amazing view from the balcony where the city look like in the palm of your hand. The magnificent castle and the mountains stand in front of your eyes while you enjoying your coffee. The house is fully equipped with everything necessary (cuisine, laundry, fridge , coffee machine etc). The host was really welcoming and responsive in helping us with his advises. Always available, he suggested us what to do and where to go during our stay, don't hesitate to ask. I would recommend this apartment and come back sometime. Wonderful city and delicious cuisine.
