Guest Reviews

- Soroka (3/5): - The staff was nice and the place is clean. the rooms are very small and uninviting, and worst of all: it is built in such a way that you can hear every word spoken by everyone in the hostel. We were unable to sleep all night. Unfortunately, we do not recommend it.
- Greta (6/5): Not for sensitive sleepers - It is a clean hostel in a great location that works 24/7. The stuff is nice but doesn't really speak English. As a solo traveller I booked a private room because I was arriving late at night and wanted not to wake up anyone and get some proper sleep. However, the room is not that private because all hostel rooms have the open space between the ceiling and wall - so everyone can hear everything every snor and fart. So someone starts talking loud at 7 am and everyone can hear everything. Goodbye sleep!
The double room was so tiny that even got me alone was barely any space to turn around.
Also, the bathroom is only one for all with two cameras in it,so forget privacy.
And in general, no touch of coziness.

- Jiří (10/5): - Majitelé se o ubytování perfektně starají. Jsou vždy k dispozici, maximálně ochotní, každou chvíli uklízejí společné prostory. Bohužel nefungoval terminál, a tak nebylo možné platit kartou. Nutnost výběru leků z bankomatu znamenala určité náklady navíc.
- Zeynep (5/5): -
- Zillah (8/5): Good location - Good location, walkable to center, restaurants etc. Very clean room and comon areas. Toilets and showers always clean. Owners very nice, friendly and approachable. Able to use large fridge which was very helpful. Wifi ok. Large area outside with sink for sitting and eating The room was smaller than we were expecting. We knew it would be small from the pictures, but the description said 15sqm. It is not 15sqm. But as long as you know that it shouldn't be a problem.
- Marais (8/5): Très bon rapport qualité prix. Endroit très propre. Prévoir du cash pour le règlement. - Endroit très propre et bien localisé Les murs sont fins, donc on entend le bruit des autres hôtes.
- Emirhan (6/5): -
- Giacomo Angelo (10/5): -
- Sartori (10/5): - Posizione ottima, rapporto qualità-prezzo top, personale gentilissimo e molto disponibile, pulizia impeccabile. Tutto perfetto.
- Enrico (8/5): - Stanza piccola, ma questo era intuibile già dalle foto presenti sul sito. Rapporto prezzo qualità comunque soddisfacente considerato che non trattasi di un dormitorio (ho soggiornato in un letto a castello da 2). Stanza piccola, ma questo era intuibile già dalle foto presenti sul sito
- Aurelien (10/5): Super logement et personnel extrêmement sympathique ! - Excellent accueil ! Personnel très sympathique ! Très propre (logement, douche,…) petite terrasse extérieure. rapport qualité prix parfait ! Je recommande fortement. Rien
- Gaël (10/5): -
- Owen (8/5): -
- Hao (10/5): Highly recommended! Perfect place for an overnight stay with all the essentials. - Everything was super clean — the bed, towels, toilet, and bathroom. The staff, who I think is also the owner, was very nice and friendly. The location is excellent, surrounded by restaurants and shops. Nothing really, just so you know — the room is basically an area separated by boards inside a large hall. It wasn’t a problem for me since I always have a sleep mask and earplugs.
- ibrahim (10/5): Everyone should stay here. It is an amazing property with amazing staff and close to city center - The private room was spacious and we had our own shower which was super clean (typical for Albanian households).
The owner however is one of the most genuine people I have ever met in my life. He was so helpful the whole time, assisted us to book a taxi to the bus station (for normal price), and made sure the place was quiet at all times. He truly embodies Albanian hospitality and sets another level. Would trust him with everything!!
Faleminderit!!! Nothing, everything was perfect
- Ross (10/5): A great cheap stay with very comfortable beds and completely spotless. The staff were very friendly and accommodating - Super clean
Friendly staff
Good facilities
Comfortable beds Sound / light will travel from other rooms. But didn’t disturb us. If you are sensitive to light / sounds can easily be blocked out.
- Stavros (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ahmed (10/5): Exceptional - The staff were really friendly and very helpful Nil
- Kelly (10/5): A perfect gem - Best neighborhoid in Tirane. Super clean and quiet. Nothing. My second stay and i will return.
- Guitarwalker (7/5): Good location, clean toilets and showers. - Good location, clean toilets and showers. Small room.
- Nerion (8/5): Very good -
- Leila (10/5): I had a very pleasant stay at GM Hostel. The owners gave a warm welcome, it was quiet and super clean! Close to everythi - Perfect location. Quiet and comfortable place!
- Anonymous (10/5): Wonderful stay in the center of Tirana. Very welcoming hosts. - My stay at GM Tirana Hostel excided my expectations. Great value for the money and the facilities were very clean. Location was very convenient and enabled me to see many attractions in Tirana in a short period of time. The hostel offers a great outdoor area to unwind after a busy travelling day. The owner was very welcoming and very helpful in answering many questions about the attractions in the city and places to visit. I would consider GM Tiran Hostel again in my future travelling plans. Looking forward to visit Tirana again!
Thank you!

- Xiyue (1/5): Terrifying - Nothing The photos of this property are simply untrue. My worst stay of all my life. I booked this place for 1 May to 3 May. We arrived at about 2am of 2 May. The owner said they had 24 hrs reception. Upon arrival, the door was locked and we were blamed for knocking the door. The owner asked for cash and didn’t accept card payment.
Later, the owner showed us the room. I should not call it a room. The wall is half built. It doesn’t reach the ceiling. There is no security no safety no privacy and you can hear everything and everyone. There is no curtain so you will be awakened as soon as sun rises. I was really unhappy and the owner was furious about it. He stood in front of me and looked intimidated and pointed at me shouting it is a hostel not a hotel and it is what it is. The owner can barely understand what I was saying but kept asking ‘do you understand me???’ We traveled as a group of four females and it was midnight in a strange country a strange place. I felt extremely unsafe but after wandering around I failed to find an alternative place to stay. We ended up spending a sleepless night there and packed to leave immediately after we find another place to go. Before that, we had to withdraw cash to pay the owner. We didn’t want another scam so we filmed when we giving cash to the owner. He became furious again and intimidated us to stop it immediately. When we requested the receipt, despite he charged us 10500 ALL, he gave a 10000 ALL receipt. We paid the amount of full period.
The bathroom has no spare space for clothes. To avoid wet your stuff, you need to take off everything in the public space.
- Ashay (9/5): Very satisfactory stay. Good value for money - Location was very convenient. The walls were very thin. The guest next to me was snoring and disturbingmy sleep
- Pavla (8/5): Good price, good location - Great accomodation near city centre. Clean and very affordable. Good communication with the host - I needed late check-in. I was happy during my stay. Euro cash as payment method accepted. It was a little cold in the accomodation especially in the evening (my travel was in April), but managable 👍
- Elis (10/5): Exceptional -
- Marcel (10/5): Exceptional - Arben the host is an incredibly nice guy, who enabled me to check in late.
He takes great pride in keeping his place spotlessly clean, which can't always be said about comparable hostels.
Highly recommend for a budget traveler.
- Mehmet (10/5): Exceptional - Perfect location, quite and very clean place. You can stay and feel like your home
- Monique (10/5): Exceptional - It was clean and the hosts were nice.
- Lulzim (7/5): Good -
- Yousra (10/5): Exceptional - I highly recommend
The host is so nice
Plus it’s not far from the city center Nothing
- Daniel (10/5): Exceptional - Super clean place and the staff really helpful. Good advice for the city, he even organize the taxi for the airport.
- Sidni (2/5): Poor, 0 sleep. - It is cheap and in a good location, toilet and rooms are clean. The layout is horrible, its rooms packed next to each other, and for some reason the top of the wall is missing so light leaks into the room whenever people turn hall lights or their room lights on. You can also hear people talking in the hall and walls are thin so can hear them talking.
The room is extremely small and don’t let it fool you, it is private in name only. You can hear everything and see lights flashing all the time.
Please do not go here if you are a medium to light sleeper, you will get 0 sleep. I don’t understand why the ratings are so high with the worst sleeping conditions I’ve had in my whole life.
- Agata (7/5): Good - Location, 24/7 front desk, value for money Thin walls and light turned on in the corridor, bring an eye mask and ear plugs, and you will be good
- Šibal (10/5): Very good experience - The accomodation was a great choice for two nights. The rooms and beds were new and clean, and so were the toilets and showers. There is a little terrace where you can enjoy your evening. The owner is very kind and hospitable, we spoke German together and he gave us valuable tips as for where to go and what to do. Overall it was a great value-for-money experience, I'd definitely like to come back one day. It is a hostel and the rooms aren't very big, of course. I wouldn't say it is a negative, it is just something you need to keep in mind. Dont expect a 5-star hotel for the very budget-friendly price.
- Liliana (7/5): Good - There was enough space for our big group and it was calm. The owner could only speak German and Albanian which made communication a little bit difficult. There isn't much life to the hostel but it was good for an overnight stay.
- Andrés (8/5): Very good - Very clean, nice ubication. If you filter in the app it will say it's 24 hour front desk, it's not. My flight got seriously delayed and I end up arriving at 4 am, the guest was very mad about that
- Lola (8/5): Very good - Huge gap between walls and ceiling
- Harry (9/5): Superb - Good location, comfortable ,nice staff, clean There was a camera pointing into our room as the walls don’t go all the way to the ceiling.
- Chloe (10/5): Exceptional -
- Arvid (10/5): Exceptional - Very clean and Nice staff!
- Grzegorz (10/5): Exceptional - This hostel was very good, stuff was very nice and kind. We were group of 15 people and everything was so good. Stuff are speaking german and english so it’s easy to communicate. Owner told us a lot about tirane and also what we can see there so that was amazing. OWNER WAS THE NICEST PERSON THAT WE MET ON OUR TRIP. Bathroom are always clean and so big for the hostel. We found this hostel moments before our arrival due to problems at other hotel, so we were lucky TWICE!! We’ve been TWICE there so that’s saying that this is very very very nice hostel!!
- Bart (10/5): Exceptional - A very very clean place and friendly hosts, great value for money
- Marina (7/5): Good -
- Muhammad (8/5): Superb - It was nice tidy, and the owner was very polite person, taking care of his customers, and the best thing is the location of this hostel. Really in the heart of the city center None
- Roxane (9/5): Superb - It's a really Nice hostel. The staff is very welcoming and they were available whenevere we needed.
The rooms and the bathroom are so clean and well thought.
Finally the location of the hostel is very convenient, not far away from nice districts and highlights of Tirana.
