Guest Reviews
- Yann (9/5): -
- Rumeysa (10/5): - De ruimte en de tuin. De dieren.
- marissa (9/5): - Fijne plek, kinderen heerlijk gespeeld in de mooie tuin met diertjes. Fijn bed en douche. Ideaal dat er een ontbijt klaarstaat in de koelkast zodat je de tijd aan jezelf hebt. Eigenaresse niet gezien, maar fijn en duidelijk contact via de app. Niets
- Marion 95 (10/5): Séjour en famille très agréable - Très bon séjour.
Le logement est très bien situé, bien équipé et la literie est confortable.
Accueil au top, avec des œufs frais tous les jours.
Communication avec l'hôte très facile
Logement très bien équipé avec un enfant
Nous recommandons Rien tout était parfait
- Thea (10/5): - Dit is echt een verborgen parel. Langs de weg, zodat het heel praktisch is op doortocht. En tegelijkertijd alle rust zonder directe buren met een prachtige grote tuin met kippen, hondjes en speelattributen en heerlijke zitplekken. Ook binnen was het prachtig ingericht en met goede faciliteiten. Een en al luxe ontspanning. We hadden er zo langer kunnen blijven.
- Marco (10/5): Beautiful accommodation with a lovely garden. - Lovely, modern accommodation with extremely comfortable beds, a nice kitchen and an amazing garden with swing set, basket hoop and other things that made the garden really nice to be in. Lovely mountain view. Very kind owner.
Did I already tell you about the beds? ;) They were so incredibly comfortable they deserve a second mention in this review. Also: two very cute dogs who loved all our attention and treats and many chicks in the garden.
Also breakfast was provided in the form of fresh eggs, cucumbers, tomatoes, feta cheese, butter, jam, toast. One detail to improve would be a large frying/grill pan. Other than that everything was perfect.
- Nathan (9/5): Beautiful and simple stay in a wonderful part of the world. - Beautiful stay, with a door that opens right into a quaint garden. Based on the description and photos, it was exactly what we were expecting and what we hoped it would be. Its a bit far from any commercial activity - but if you want to be "away from it all", you definitely feel like you are.
- Camille (10/5): - Such a nice place, small green paradise with little chicks and a puppy (enclosed area) and everything you need to play or have a drink or just relax in the garden.
Aurora and her father in law were very nice, and made sure we had everything we needed.
We had fresh eggs for our breakfast, loved it!
Apartment is big enough, and the baby bed and high chair were so nice to have. 2min away by car from shops and restaurants, 1h30 to Komani lake boat tours and 15Min from Shkoder. Perfect!
- Neethu (8/5): -
- Artur (8/5): -
- Imtiaz (10/5): - Wonderful host, with a personal welcoming touch. Clear directions on finding the apartment, which is at a convenient location. The place itself is very clean, modern and nicely decorated. You get the added bonus of being able to enjoy breakfast on the patio. Highly Recommended.
- Alenka (10/5): Top tier for kids - The best things for our kids were animals, the outside playground area and smart tv with Youtube :)
For me, the best thing was safety! The fence is all around and huge doors of the entrance to the accommodation area that can be locked, therefore, no worries regarding kids running onto the busy road.
The accommodation is not in the center of the city, but not much far from it, so everything you need is in close proximity.
The host provided us with fresh eggs from their free range chickens, homemade jam (absolutely delicious) and other store bought groceries to have for breakfast.
Additional plus was the furniture - well crafted, sturdy and stylish. No Ikea furniture ;)
This place was so theraupeutic and quiet (besides the kids running freely).
- Karolina (10/5): - I highly recommend this place. Great location, cozy apartment with access to a beautiful garden. The owner is also very helpful and friendly! ❤️
- Hanka (10/5): - Sehr schöne kleine Ferienwohnung mit gefülltem Kühlschrank für das Frühstück und angrenzendem Garten. Die Gegend ist nicht so schön - stark befahrene Straße (wenige Kilometer vor Shkodra), Gewerbegebiet. In der Ferienwohnung merkt man davon aber wenig.
- Suada (10/5): Home away from home 10/10 - My husband and I stayed for 3 nights and felt extremely comfortable here. The host was very helpful and the area was very peaceful. Will definitely be back 😊
- Vaarivaan (9/5): - Viihtyisä paikka No aamupala oli mitä oli??
- Katia (10/5): Excellent séjour - Nous avons très bien communiqué avec la propriétaire même si nous n’avons pas pu la rencontrer. Le logement est confortable et bien équipé. Le jardin est calme et agréable
- Noa (9/5): - Very nice place, the apartment is beautiful and comfortable. The host was nice and very responsive. The playground was just what the kids needed. Very good place for small kids A little bit far from the city centre.
- Jason (10/5): - Beautiful garden surrounded by fresh fruit and flowers
- Ahmed. UAE (10/5): إقامة متميزة - المكان جمييييل جداً وترتاح نفسياً فيه.
قبل مدينة شكودرا ب 15 دقيقة تقريباً في منطقة ريفية وهادئة
الحديقة تفتح النفس وفيها أشجار فواكه كثير وحضيرة دجاج نهاية الحديقة
بإمكان الأطفال يلعبون كرة القدم والسلة وفيه مراجيح وكرسي جميل متحرك للكبار
الشقة جميلة وأنصح اللي بيحجز فيها يحجز الغرفة المفصولة اللي جنبها على شان تكون الحديقة والمكان كلهم لك وما يشاركك حد فيهم
العائلة كريمة وعطونا بطيخ وبيض طازج من المزرعة وجبن وخضراوات
أدوات المطبخ كلها متوفرة وفيه مكينة كوفي على المدخل
راعية المكان وأبوها جداً متعاونين وساعدونا كثير في البحث عن الأماكن اللي نحتاجها
شكودرا تحتاج 3 ليالي من وجهة نظري، اليوم الأول تروح فيه رحلة بحرية إلى بحيرة كومان ونهر شالا
اليوم الثاني تروح منطقة ثيث اللي تتميز بالطبيعة والشلالات والهدوء
اليوم الثالث تغطي فيه مدينة شكودرا حمام الشقة شوي صغير
أتمنى من العائلة إيجاد طريقة أكثر أماناً لغلق الباب الرئيسي وخاصة للي عنده عائلة وأطفال
باقي الأشياء كل شيء كان جميل
- Andreas (8/5): -
- Kabil (10/5): - Le cadre était magnifique et la petite maison très propre et décorée avec goût.
- Yulia (10/5): - clean, beautiful, quiet, great garden for the kids
- Dmytro (10/5): - Це дуже гарне і привітне, чисте, просторе місце, комунікація з господарем супер. Спробуйте тут зупинитись і нерозчаруєтесь. Приватний паркінг, зелений сад, дитячий майданчик, сніданок і наймиліша собачка в світі))
- Juliane (9/5): -
- Lempert (9/5): Beautiful relaxing stay - Beautiful place, cozy and private but still great location. The kitchen needs a bit more accessorizing (salt & pepper) and maybe a thicker curtain to block the light in the morning.
- Kristaps (10/5): - The garden and breakfast was amazing. Super cozy place. The rooster wakeup at 5am is an experience
- Alex (9/5): -
- Guillaume (9/5): Agréable - Son endroit calme et cosy, très agréable, un vrai confort ! Tout est bien, j’aurais pu dire l’entrée car il manque des indications mais l’hôte nous a tout dit par message, donc c’est bien 🙂
- Axlbellamy (9/5): -
- Simon (10/5): - Le jardin est super. La chambre très sympa La salle de bain est un peu petite
- Martina (10/5): Soggiorno fantastico in zona tranquilla, personale gentilissimo e disponibile. - Pulita ed accogliente Nulla
- Eyal (10/5): - דירה משופצת ומאובזרת ברמה גבוהה. מחוץ להמולה של העיר. המארחת מקסימה. ארוחת בוקר עם ביצים טריות מלול התרנגולות שבחצר.
- STEPHANIE (10/5): - Très beau logement avec tout le confort nécessaire.
Très propre et fonctionnel.
Autonome pour le petit déjeuner et tout était prévu.
Hôte à l'écoute.
- Leonid (10/5): -
- Alexandra (10/5): - Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen.
Die Wohnung hatte einen wunderschönen Garten abseits gelegen und daher sehr ruhig.
Die Stadt ist nur wenige Minuten mit dem Auto entfernt .
Sehr nette Gastgeber und die Wohnung war sehr gut ausgestattete,modern und sehr gepflegt.
Nur zu empfehlen!!!
- Britta (10/5): Exceptional - A wonderful garden to relax
- Ava (10/5): If you want to be treated like family and need relaxation stay here. - This was definitely my favorite stay on Booking.com because of these incredible host. I wish I had more than one night here. It was incredible. The spacious yard and laidback atmosphere was exactly what we needed after the business of Kotor and Dubrovnik old towns. I booked very last minute and host had everything ready and perfect for our stay Everything was perfect.
- Niels (10/5): Exceptional - Very nice big garden and a little appartement you stay in. It’s a bit strange when you arrive, you have to follow the directions carefully or you end up in the nearby village with surprised (but friendly) locals like we did. There’s also a little shop in the village with snacks and such. You find the little apartment behind a furniture shop just outside the village, but you don’t notice the location so much when you’re in the garden/appartement. The host provides a great breakfast that you have to prepare yourself. There’s loads of animals in the garden, including cute dogs and a tortoise we saw. It’s lovely to have breakfast in the garden!! Location is a little hard to find, google maps sends you the wrong way, so make sure to follow the instructions the host sends you. Also the animals are a little noisy at night, but nothing problematic, it’s a welcome relief from city noises.
- Suus (10/5): I didn’t want to leave ❤️ - It was like a little oasis. This room is a perfect little gem. The interior styling makes this room feel like a home away from home. Warm and welcoming. The garden with the fruit trees, flowers, swing and the chickens and other birds is so relaxing. The roosters woke up very early, but I didnt mind - when you do, just bring earplugs. The breakfast was really nice, eggs, toast, cheese and jam (and pomegranates) Very good coffee. Although the room is near the highway you can hardly hear the cars. I was travelling alone and did feel save because of the fence closing it of from the highway at night. Restaurants and supermarkets are nearby. The mosquitos
- Frans (9/5): Very private location, large garden, very nice for more days to stay. - Garden
Space of the room
Privacy
Every day new eggs from own chickens
(Be aware its outside the city) Need transportation, we loved it.
Supermarket on 2km Breakfast is basic (for more days stay)
Pigeons make some noise (they are changing the space for them)
- Baltazar (10/5): Exceptional -
- Daria (1/5): animal farm in the middle of nowhere - It looks nice on booking - that's why i chose it. It's not a private garden but a private farm. The only thing missing are penguins. Although that would be nice. In the meantime, you spend the night with pigeons that are behind the wall, are there a few of them? a dozen? They make a lot of noise. At 4 in the morning, roosters wake you up, they crow until 6. You go out to drink coffee. But above you on the veranda, parrots are screaming and fighting. Feathers are everywhere. It smells bad. The location is not as stated in booking, it's at the back of a furniture store. It's hard to get there..
- Sophia (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anjana (9/5): Excellent - My time in the garden room was like a fairy tale. It was so peaceful and pretty with all the greenery around. A really nice place to relax and be close to nature. I'd definitely recommend it for a calm getaway.. Nothing actually , self catering and the location got 8/10
- Yosef (10/5): Exceptional - Breakfast was self-catering
Provisions were generous Be aware: room is adjacent to chicken and geese coop. Plenty of eggs for breakfast in an agricultural setting.
- Gary (9/5): Home with a private garden, with ducks and chicken running around, and berries that you can pick - Breakfast was interesting. Food was kept in the fridge for us. There was a kitchen in the room which we could use. The owner brought croissants from town for us in the morning. We could pluck berries from the garden. We have no complaints actually. We like the farm setting. We didn't know how to use the TV though. Not suitable if you don't have a car.
- Marina (9/5): Spacious, clean and comfortable apartment with nice private garden. Kind host. Car needed. - Very comfortable apartment, brand new and clean. Well equipped. Beautiful and big private garden, it was great as we traveled with a dog. The host is very kind, she gave us many recommendations. Recommended if you can move by car to the center of Shkodra. The apartment is located in the back of a building facing the main street that connects Shkodra to Tirana. The area is not charming and you need the car to move around. Not recommended if you want to have dinner out in the city center and avoid the car. The garden has a closed area dedicated to doves, chickens and ducks :) which is nice but can be noisy in the early morning - however the host told us that they're going to make some adjustments as the structure was recently put on Booking.com.
- Vincent (10/5): Exceptional - The room itself and the attached garden were absolutely stunning! The hosts hospitality went above and beyond what you would expect. Great value for what you pay, we would definitely book here again if we were in the area!
- Carmen (10/5): Relax and enjoy in a peaceful place - It has a great garden and a lot of outside space. It was very well decorated and clean. The lady was very helpful. There are restaurants 2 min from the place, supermarket. Everything you need. Every was perfect. Just be aware that it’s not in the centre For us it’s what we were looking for.
- Ines (9/5): Lovely and welcoming place to stay - Lovely host (and father in law). We got some fruits from the garden and some raki as a welcoming gift. The host also gave us some travelbooks. Check our the lovely little shop she owns too, if have the chance. It is on the same terrain.
The room was neat and felt very welcoming. Also loved the garden and airco. The shower flooded quite fast. Looked like the disposal was a little clogged.
- Magdalena (10/5): Highly recommend it! - Staying at Auroras place was my favourite stay during my travels through Albania. We spontaneously booked 1 night with our dog - make sure to have Internet cause you will need the google maps Link Aurora will send you :)
You‘ll stay in a beautiful Room with your own Garden in the back of Auroras Family manufactory. There are dogs, chickens, geese and deafs. The Garden is so lovely - a quiet little paradise on the way to Shkodra/Teth.
If you don‘t want to stay in the city Centre make sure to Book a Night in this place - absolutly recommend it!!
- Egzon (10/5): amazing value for money, perfect gateway for a quick weekend - The place was very cozy and cute, clean and very beautiful. The garden was awesome, the host was very kind and brought us breakfast as well. nothing
- Dea (10/5): excellent experience - A quite place in the middle of the green but also just a 5 min ride away from the city of Shkoder.
Very kind staf. Everything cleaned up and ready on our arrive! Highly recommended!
