Guest Reviews

• Roberta (9/5): - Il personale gentilissimo e sempre molto attento a qualsiasi esigenza, è un ambiente molto familiare e mi sono sentita a mio agio. Grazie 😊
• Mayuka (6/5): - The staff of the night shift was so kind Though I booked the female room, it was changed to mix room without notice.
• Alona (10/5): -
• Sanna (7/5): Not good value, better cleaner places in town - My fault searched too late and this Was only place available Friday night. Stayed one night. Kitchen was very dirty with greasy pots, pans and utilities. shower/ toilet was quite dirty too. Seems some older guys live there. Noisy at night and early morning. F dorm was right by entrance and courtyard. F dorm bedding was clean and lockers in room. guy at reception was friendly and funny! Dirty kitchen and toilet/ shower , noisy
• Nicola (2/5): Dreadful - thank god for Dmitry. - Dmitry was 10/10 - amazing and kind, he really tried to keep the hostel functioning/everyone happy despite unsavoury characters and working in/living in below acceptable conditions. He’s too good for the hostel - We hope he finds a better place to live and work. Three good points about the hostel - the shower was hot sometimes, there is a supermarket and some nice places to eat/drink nearby, and the wifi works. Everything (apart from Dmitry). Unsavoury characters - smelly, noisy all hours and disrespectful. My mattress was a combination of collapsed in the middle/side and springy and wasn’t acceptable to sleep on, my partners wasn’t much better. My partners sheet had a stain/hair on it as though it had been used, the blankets provided smelt well used and unclean. There was often no toilet roll, cleaning standards of the toilets were low (especially the bin in women’s and toilet in the mens). One toilet for each sex - same room as shower - very impractical. Only one shower worked, often cold, full of limescale, and it flooded bathroom each time. The place generally smells of cigarettes, we named it ‘fag-breeze hostel’. The roof terrace smells of cigarettes and cat urine and has an uncomfortable bench made of planks of wood. The top bunk beds wooden slats have extra bits of glue here and there and dip in the middle a little. We both felt scared they could collapse. Broken mirrors/lockers/stained walls. Everything felt spent/tired/unkempt. We didn’t use the kitchen and heard other guests didn’t too due to cleaning standards. The place is super cheap, but we felt the standard of mattress/cleanliness (as above) was not acceptable for living and that changes need to be made to make it acceptable even if it does mean a slight increase in price (wouldn’t cost much for a little more cleaning/investment in mattress etc.). We have travelled the world in hostels and this was the worst.
• Sean k (7/5): - The place was close to the center and is very affordable. The receptionist is very nice and friendly. My bed ladder was falling apart. The toilet was not the cleanest and things seem to be falling apart. The door is squeaky, so it's loud everytime someone opens door and closes it. There's a construction site in front of the hostel right now so it's rather loud with construction starting from 9
• florence (7/5): - Le patron est sympa C'était bruyant surtout parce qu'une des filles du dortoir a bu de l'alcool toute la soirée et n'a pas cessé d'entrer en sortir du dortoir jusque tard dans la nuit... J'ai annulé ma deuxième nuit mais je n'ai pas été remboursé
• Brahadeesh (4/5): -
• Danilo (7/5): Very nice staff, beautiful lemon tree - The guy in the reception is so nice and helpful, did everything to make my stay better The street is quiet but in a close distance to supermarkets and restaurants The mattress I slept is not comfortable, has a hole in the middle and I woke up with a pain in the back, The toilet was missing toilet paper and soap sometimes. Another thing that I didn't like was there was always people smoking at the common area, even from the room we can smell the cigarettes
• Gerard (10/5): top - Goede service en communicatie
• Elisa (8/5): Soggiorno tranquillo e il personale molto attento - La tranquillità e l’essere una delle poche case ancora tradizionali
• Joshua (10/5): -
• Dong (8/5): -
• Ledio (10/5): - The garden is super and the hospitality is great
• Anzelika (10/5): -
• Disha (10/5): - Dmitri was super kind and helpful
• Charles (2/5): A fuir - Son emplacement Arrivé vers 2h du matin, accueilli par le réceptionniste ivre, qui me présente la chambre en allumant la grande lumière ce qui a réveillé les autres personnes, odeur nauséabonde dans la chambre. Les autres personnes dans la chambre étaient bien plus âgées que la moyenne d’âge en général en auberge de jeunesse donc pas vraiment l’ambiance attendue. Sanitaires sales, j’ai du attendre que la femme de ménage passe le matin pour profiter de toilettes et douche propres. Je suis parti des le lendemain matin après une nuit blanche. Avec tous ces problèmes, difficile de se sentir à l’aise et en sécurité dans cet endroit.
• Marijke (7/5): - Very nice staff. Very helpful and friendly. Nice little courtyard to sit outside and on the roof Small room, plug next to my bed didn't work. Room next to reception, which made it a bit noisy

• Bonventre (4/5): - La struttura non ha soddisfatto le mie aspettative, era abbastanza vecchia. Le camere danno sul cortile interno, per cui si sentiva tutto. Non sono riuscita a riposare bene per le voci e la musica fino a tardi della gente in cortile. Non c'è privacy, la camera delle ragazze non aveva una chiave e qualsiasi cosa facessi mi sono sentita osservata. Ho lasciato l'ostello prima del previsto.

• andrei (10/5): -
• Julia (9/5): Mały hostelik w samym centrum Tirany z super gospodarzem! - Mocnym punktem tego hostelu jest Dimitri, który wita gości i służy pomocą oraz wsparciem. Duża łazienka z dobrym światłem i gorącą wodą. Wygodne łóżko, wyspałam się. Dimitris, jeszcze raz dziękuję za gościnę!
• Luca (10/5): -
• Omnia (7/5): -
• TOMOYOSHI (7/5): 一泊だけなら可能 - 安い！現金ユーロが使えます。(1€=100レク)キッチンあり。シャワーは暖かい。部屋もエアコンがあり、暖かい。(23-25℃設定)衣類の洗濯と乾燥が4€(洗濯2€,乾燥2€) レモンテラスはタバコ臭い。シャワー&トイレは、一つしかない。誰か使うと、使えない。クレジットカードは使えない。(機械はあり、レシートがあるため、使えるはずたが、Cash only。)市内中心の広場からは少し遠い。
• XINZHI (6/5): 一般情况下，不会再住这里了 - 价格合理 房间到卫生间要有雨棚
• SOTA (8/5): -
• Presta (7/5): - Staff pronto ad esaudire ogni tua richiesta ,delle persone meravigliose ,anche la posizione non è male Vorrei consigliare di mettere una qualsiasi cosa in bagno per poggiare i propri effetti personali,si potrebbe migliorare un pochino la pulizia ,ma per il resto tutto perfetto 😊
• GUILLERMO (10/5): Muy buena atención , el encargado es un tipazo, atento a que estés a gusto y dispuesto para cualquier consulta. Gran cal - Excelente hubicacion en zona comercial y muy cerca del centro
• Kshitij (8/5): - Great hospitality & communication from the host. The crowd can be a bit strange & weren't maintaining the facilities the best.
• Enora (10/5): Un grand merci à Dimitri au top très chaleureux parfait très à l’écoute - Dimitri a été au top, le lit très confortable Le tuyau de la douche fuyait un peu
• Cihan (10/5): - Çok iyi çalışanları merkeze yakın limon ağacı enfes
• Rahul (10/5): -
• Guest (7/5): It was nice - It was peaceful It was a little far from the center
• Linn (3/5): - Cute place, not too far to walk to downtown Toilet was not cleaned in 2 days, people (seemed like staff) were arguing loudly and one of them talking badly about Tirana. We loved the city and think it's bad publicity coming from staff at the hostel that the city is not nice. Not very welcoming.
• Kyle (10/5): Have stayed here multiple times, the best hostel in the city for sure - It has everything you need
• Guest (10/5): Sehr gut und sauber...isha bashk me mamin dhe jam shum e kenaqur,nje pasterti e shkelqyer,👌🌟 - Sauberkeit,und sehr nette Leute.Dankeschön 👌🌟
• Nicole (9/5): -
• Robin (8/5): - Gute Lage & nette Leute
• Ofer (9/5): - Rooms are big enough, big lockers, a/c The owner is kind, down to earth, even arranged bbq evening. The spirit is good, ease, lack of stress. had a nice conversation even with the cleaning lady.
• Richard (8/5): -
• Blanca (10/5): Super angenehmes Hostel wo man gern ist - Alle sind super nett und alles ist sauber Nichts
• King (8/5): - Good location and price.
• Shine (7/5): -
• Henrique Camacho Santos (8/5): -
• Guest (8/5): All'ombra di un limone - Posizione ottima, letti comodi, armadi per i borsoni capienti e funzionanti. Possibilità di utilizzare la cucina e gli elettrodomestici. Metterei una sedia o supporto in bagno per appoggiare indumenti mentre si fa la doccia
• Kyle (10/5): - The most comfortable place in Tirana, great people, very comfortable beds
• Sofiia (10/5): Would come to Tirana just to be in this hostel again - It was a blast! People and staff were extremely kind and fun to be around with. Always very welcoming and helpful. Facilities were good and it was very clean all of the time.
• Jakob (9/5): Sehr angenehme Unterkunft. - Der Mitarbeiter ist super lieb und aufmerksam. Das Hochbett wirkte etwas wackelig und die Reinigungskraft hat schon eine Stunde vor Checkout begonnen im Zimmer aufzuräumen.
• Kyle (10/5): - Perfect location, very relaxed vibe and good people
• André (8/5): -
• Natalia (10/5): Excelente!! - Estadía increíble! El personal del hostel es excelente, la gente que se hospeda también, lindo ambiente para compartir, relajarse y descansar. Esta muy bien ubicado, a unos minutos caminando del centro y en una buena zona.
• Buyankhishig (8/5): - Staff were great. The fact that this is far from the bus station but close to the main attractions in the city.
• Jannie (8/5): - Nice hostel. I stayed in the female dorm, which was really good and with seperate bathroom. Cozy coardyard and terrace upstairs.
• Mustafa (10/5): -
• Guest (7/5): Piacevole - Letto con struttura in legno resistente e comodo. Il bagno andrebbe arredato con qualche base dove appoggiare i propri effetti personali mentre si fa la doccia.
• Laura (6/5): -
• Bendahi (10/5): -
• Michael (9/5): - Lovely little hostel in the heart of Tirana. We really enjoyed our stay at Lemon Breeze. The staff were lovely and welcoming and the place was very clean. The amenities are more than adequate with Aircon in the room and good sized wash rooms for men and women respectively. There is also two nice outdoor areas which we took advantage of when it was too warm to explore the city. Would definitely stay here again next time we visit Tirana. During our first night an old man in the room turned off the AC Unit even though it was 30° and then slept with the remote so no one else could use it. Obviously not the hostels fault so doesn't affect my rating.
• Chloe (8/5): -
• xiaolin (5/5): - 离斯坎德培广场不远，步行可到任何景点，有厨房可以做饭，楼顶可以晒衣服 1.不干净，在这里住了三晚，腿上手臂上都被跳蚤咬了好多包，2.抽烟的人特别多，因为这个青旅很小，只有3个房间，所有抽烟的人都在青旅里的小院子抽烟，导致我们只能在厨房里吃饭，太臭了，3.晚上很吵，不能好好休息
• kiah (8/5): Great cheap accommodation with friendly staff - Had a very chill vibe, the staff were so incredibly lovely and they felt like just real genuine people which was really refreshing! Had a very homely feel and was super cheap! Bottled Water and beer available to buy for cheap too and they were kind enough to have you pay later if you didn’t have change :) Nothing major about the place itself, The shower flooded when used and also I felt a bit uncomfortable using it with it literally next to the reception.. that’s just personal preference Also the guy who was snoring all night 😩😩😩😩Literally the loudest snoring I’ve ever heard in my life, I even had industrial strength earplugs in but that’s not the staffs fault, although because it’s not staffed all night it did feel unsafe when he was very intoxicated coming home at 3am standing in the middle of the room breathing everywhere, his top off making himself right at home Also pleaseeeee make sure those beds are stable I was genuinely scared that I was going to be flattened by the top bunk If I was travelling as a young female solo traveler I wouldn’t feel safe by myself. But like I said it just genuinely the people there not the staff or property
• Muhammad Hamza (10/5): This is a beautiful home for solo travelers. If you are coming to Tirana, just book it. Literally ♥️ - Everything Everything is good.
• Maxime (8/5): Bon séjour - Le personnel est top, les chambres sont confortables, la cuisine, terasse est très agréable. La salle de bain n’est pas en très bon état, une douche fuit et dans l’autre l’eau ne s’écoule pas et stagne.
• Merve (10/5): - Ev gibi bir yer! Oldukça temiz, resepsiyondaki arkadaş çok yardımcı oldu. Kadın ve erkek tuvaletleri ve duşu ayrı, konum olarak çok iyi. Klimaların 19:00-08:00 arası çalışma kuralı var maalesef.
• Айсулу (10/5): -
• Emily (10/5): - Located very close to everything, the garden is lovely, but most of all the staff is fantastic. Nidi gave me a ton of recommendations for the city, did laundry, and kept everything clean & tidy. Highly recommend.
• Eol (10/5): -
• Görkem (5/5): -
• Melissa (5/5): - Personale super accogliente, un gattino che vive lì Persone
• CHI (9/5): - 冷氣很棒夠強、尤其在這裡熱的天氣、Wifi很強，員工超級親切。超級感謝他們在我去義大利羅馬期間讓我免費放單車以及部分行李、讓我順利完成羅馬之旅。 衛浴男女各一間太少。
• Eol (9/5): -
• HANANE (9/5): - Excellent séjour à cet petit auberge situé dans le centre de Tirana. Le lit est confortable, la chambre est propre et climatisée. Le personnel est sympathique et serviable. Le prix est très correct
• Zhongfeng (7/5): -
• Hien (10/5): Is a cool place for a backackers - I like the kitchen facilities and the staff.
• Fenglin (8/5): - 位置：距离到市中心的广场走路10分钟左右，地处居名区，很安静，周围有小商店，大大小小的超市也有很多，还是很方便。走到周围大路上面会有餐馆，小食店。 我住的女生4人间，紧凑，有带锁柜子，床头有插头，但有的插头好像跟咱们国外游客的欧标的转换器无法匹配，导致无法使用。寝室干净卫生。整个院子有两个卫生间，分成了男女卫生间，干净卫生，也比较宽敞。 厨房以及客厅干净卫生，设施齐全，做饭方便。WiFi可。小院子很可爱小巧，中间真有颗柠檬树。 青旅回复booking信息及时有效，工作人员热情，有问必答，有求必应。 因为整个青旅的布局原因，虽然设置有女生宿舍，但宿舍无法开门，开窗，或者拉开窗帘，因为开窗或者打开窗帘就是院子的大门，而开门就直对前台以及院子内的桌子，几乎毫无隐私了。所以只有屋子里面没人的时候才能开门开窗通风，里面有人的时候就只能是关着大门。而女生厕所也是同样的问题，开门正对就是前台的以及院子里面的桌子，里面虽然有两个洗澡龙头，但是实际上每次只能一个人进去洗澡或者洗漱。要是青旅主人能考虑一下怎么增加一下女生宿舍或者女厕所的隐私性就完美了。或者，一个小建议，可以考虑将青旅里面最里面的那个宿舍改成女生宿舍，那个宿舍对面的厕所洗漱间改成女生厕所，然后在那个宿舍门上加个帘子可能就能成为一个完美的女生宿舍了。这只是个建议呀。
• Maria (7/5): - The direct WhatsApp contact The door had no lock, bed was loud, uncomfortable, bathroom kept flooding, electricity stopped working
• Andrea (7/5): - Die 2 Zitronenbäume im Patio spenden Schatten. Eigenes Bad für weibl.Gäste. Küche ist gut ausgestattet. Die Treppe zum Dach ist nicht sicher gebaut. Auf dem Dach, wo man sitzen kann und die Wäsche aufgehängt wird, ist keine Absicherung/Balustrade. Die Putzfrau kam morgens um 8 Uhr und hat an beiden Tagen erstmal sehr laut im Patio telefoniert.Man hört das, denn das Hostel ist klein mit Schlafräumen zum Patio.Als ich sie darauf angesprochen habe, wurde die laut und unverschämt. Sie sitzt auch an der kleinen Rezeption und schaut.. Es gibt nicht so viel zu putzen. Hat aber Glück und wird von 8-11 Uhr bezahlt. Der Hostelsangestellte kommt erst um 15 Uhr, so wird die Babykatze, die der Besitzer vor einigen Tagen ins Hostel gebracht hat, nicht gut versorgt.Die Kleine kann bis jetzt ihr Geschäft nur unter dem Zitronenbsum erledigen.Dort hat es ein wenig Erde.Aber es hat schon angefangen zu riechen. Habe dem Besitzer gesagt, ohne Katzenklo geht es nicht.Hoffe, er hat eins gekauft! Eine Babykatze wurde vom Besitzer des Hostels gebracht, aber nun nicht gut versorgt.
• Pandao (10/5): - Female dorm was really good. Top location. Amazing staff!!!! They also have laundry machine, dryer and kitchen for use. Also a rooftop. No way to stop the water from the shower to flow all over the floor. And no real lock for the room.
• Hien (10/5): I had a great stay overall. The staff was excellent—very friendly and helpful throughout my visit. - The staff are excellent. A bit noisy that cause from other guest who came after midnight.
• CHI (9/5): -
• flo (6/5): -
• Vitória Júlia Aguiar Liberato (8/5): 8/10 pois teve esses inconvenientes - Eu fiquei com minhas amigas no quarto feminino com 4 camas e minha room mate era um amor de pessoa. O ar condicionado era ótimo e banheiro e quarto estava limpos Os panos de cama do quarto de uma das camas estava com cabelo da pessoa anterior, o q foi o único não tão limpo O homem que estava responsável pela recepção estava fumando muito no local Tinha vários homens fazendo muito barulho e fazendo perguntas inconvenientes. Mas esses eram os únicos pontos negativos
• Dmytro (8/5): -
• Arij Ezzouhour (8/5): Good stay for solo traveler - - kind and helpful satff - comfortable bed + Towels and closet for the luggage - cleanness - location is not the best but also not bad it's close to the centre and many shops and restaurants and caffe - Good wifi - other facilities: equipped kitchen, machines, ... - noise of people from the garden fortunately they don't stay very late at night - only one bathroom (one for women and one for men) I think it's not enough if the hostel is full specially the shower and the toilettes are in the same room - you need to go outside for the bathroom so if it's cold and rainy is not good - No kyes for the door rooms
• HSUEH-YI (9/5): - 整個背包客棧的氛圍很棒 第一天入住時間有點耽誤，但後來有用通訊軟體入住還算可以接受
• Aybüke Kübra (9/5): -
• v44 (9/5): Hostel acogedor - Es un hostel pequeño y tranquilo, lo cual a mi me ha encantado. El personal es muy amable, y Flora, la señora de la limpieza muy simpatica y amable. Tiene una cocina con utensillos bastante completa, la ducha con cortina, cosa dificil de encontrar en Albania, los lockers muy amplios y aire acondicionado que funciona perfectamente. Tiene solo 2 baños (uno de chicas y otro de chicos) con la ducha dentro, esto a veces puede ser un problema si en los dos se estan duchando x la mañana. Tambien, en mis 3 dias alli, pude interpretar que habia chicas practicamente viviendo alli, ocupando el baño largo tiempo para maquillarse antes de salir a trabajar (es la sensacion que me dio al verlas como vestian al salir). Entiendo que es dificil manejar esto para el dueño del hostel, pero en Mexico por ej, que pasaba mucho esto, los hostels ponian maximo de estadia a los huespedes, no pudiendo superar la semana por ej. asi evitas que tu hostel se convierta en una pension, lo cual cambia muchisimo el ambiente y la percepción del turista. Tambien habia una señora en una de las habitaciones, que entraba y salia con maletas todos los dias, una cosa muy extraña! Pero bueno! Salvando esto que se solucionaria rapido poniendo maximo de estadia, el hostel es muy agradable y tiene todo lo indispensable!
