Guest Reviews
- Julia (10/5): - Nice guesthouse with amazing views of the mountain and Gjrokastra. Walking distance from the main area. The host is great and prepares delicious breakfast. Would recommend
- Pearl Sara (10/5): Warm welcoming host, amazing view!! - The host was very lovely lady. gave us a warm welcome. She helped us by giving detailed explanations on what to see, how to get to these places, food to try etc. She sent us pictures and videos on how to get to the property , which was very helpful. The breakfast was lovely , really enjoyed the coffee. The view is just wow!! She also let us use the parking spot after checkout time. Would come back here.
- Maureen (10/5): Great option in Gjirokaster - This house has one of the best views of the fortress from its terrace and a lovely view of the valley from the room's balcony. Great breakfast. Walkable to the bazaar for restaurants and to see sites. Parking was off road and the hostess sent us a great video of how to reach the property. We artived during torrential rain and a cold spell so can attest to the heat working well! WIFI worked well and hot water for showers. Room had a small refrigerator and spring water was available from a tap outside the building. But perhaps best was the hostess, Joana, who was in good communication before and throughout our stay and with whom we had several meaningful conversations. Thank you, Joana, for a wonderful stay at Clockwise. We enjoyed our visit 🙂
- Geesche (10/5): Cozy with a view - Clockwise Guestrooms is the cozy choice with a view! Our host Joana was the best! She did everything to make our stay as comfortable as possible - from a video of the best way to the hostel to offering an extended stay as my friend got sick. We felt absolutely welcomed and whenever we will come back to Gjirokastra the clockwise will be our first choice!
- sophie (9/5): Fantastique ! - Super adresse. Joana nous a accueillis avec la gentillesse albanaise, nous a donné d’excellents conseils pour notre séjour à Gjirokastër et pour la suite de notre périple. Le petit dejeuner avec vue sur la citadelle. Nous avons pu stationner à la guest house et tout faire à pied ensuite !
- Jakub (8/5): - Komfort łóżka, ogólny wystrój Ciężki dojazd do lokalizacji
- Tam (9/5): Cozy accommodation with castle view and welcoming hosts. - Wonderful view from room balcony and terrace. Close proximity to castle and bazaar (about 15 minutes walk with some short and steep inclines). Joanna, proprietor, was very nice and attentive. Hosts were very responsive to requests and sought to ensure a pleasant and comfortable stay. We enjoyed the delicious breakfast in the dining area/salon with beautiful views of the castle. The AC/heater worked well and we were nice and toasty overnight. Room had mini fridge and small TV screen. Beds were comfortable. Room has cozy chalet ambiance. The room was rather compact and felt insufficient for 4 adults. It’s better suited for 2 adults or family with 1-2 small children. The shower curtain was too short and didn’t reach the floor so water would splash everywhere. The location was a bit difficult to locate (I received Joanna’s detailed instruction video after the fact) and navigate but very doable for capable drivers. But, part of the adventure and discovery of Gjirokaster.
- Tasoskts (10/5): - We loved our stay in Clockwise in Gjirokaster!
Ioanna and Aenes were truly warm and helpful hosts, they managed our 2and a half years old girl, Alkyoni, wandering around and asking all the time " What are you doing kurios?". 😂They kindly welcomed us in the living room whenever we wanted and needed and responded to any need.
The old town is located around 15 minutes by foot,.the view is awesome and the breakfast by Ioanna superb!
Surely we will come again, thank you for everything! 😃🥰
- Edina (9/5): Nagyon szép tájon, szuper lokáciòval, rendkívüli szállásadòval, aki mindenben segît és tájékozott - Kedves és nagyon segítőkész szállásadò, gyönyörű kilátással a szobábòl és a reggelizőből, kényelmes ágy A szoba közvetlen az utcáròl nyílik, ez meglepett; és a zuhanyfüggönyt nem szeretem a szállásokon
- anne (9/5): -
- M H (7/5): -
- Dika (10/5): - Definitely will be back! The host is incredible—very welcoming and helpful. The place is excellent: clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. We had a great stay and highly recommend it.
- Nicole (10/5): Amazing accommodation with beautiful views, exceptional hosts, and comfortable rooms! - Lovely accommodation in a great area. Short walk from the bazaar and Gjirokaster castle. The host Joana provided directions to get to the property by car and also directions to the main attractions in the town. The room was very cosy with a comfy bed, nice lighting, and good storage. The breakfast area had cute lights and a gorgeous view of the castle and valley.
Joana is an amazing, kind, and thoughtful host who gives amazing recommendations for things to do in the area. She picked us up from the bus station and dropped us off when we were leaving which saved us walking up a steep hill. The breakfast she provides is delicious and rotated options of Albania good across the stay so we weren’t eating the same thing everyday.
We had an absolutely amazing stay and would highly recommend Joana’s accommodation to anyone visiting Gjirokaster! Nothing
- Kerstin (10/5): - Eine liebevoll gestaltete und behagliche Unterkunft in schöner Lage unweit der Altstadt, Blick auf Burg und Berge, leckeres Frühstück, Trinkwasserbrunnen am Haus und eine sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeberin!
- Jan (10/5): Sehr empfehlenswert - Joana ist super lieb und hilfsbereit
Schickes, sauberes Zimmer
Leckeres Frühstück mit Blick auf die Burg und die Altstadt
Ca. 10 Minuten zu Fuß zur Burg und dem Old Bazaar
Parkmöglichkeiten inbegriffen -
- Dolly (9/5): Overall, fantastic! Comfortable, welcoming and a beautiful setting. - Breakfast was substantial and delicious. I appreciated the local dishes included with standard offerings. We never felt rushed and could relax over coffee. Frosted glass rather than clear on the back window darkened the room somewhat and hindered a clear view. Only a small inconvenience. Otherwise, a wonderful place to stay!
- Douglas (9/5): Very hospitable owners in a comfortable, reasonably priced guest house. - We loved the view of the castle from the property. Eating breakfast on the terrace with a beautiful view of the surrounding valley is wonderful. The owners were very helpful in so many ways. Each morning we had a slightly different breakfast with a lot of traditional Albanian food which was nice. The only thing people should be aware is that the property is a 15 minute walk to the town center. But you are located closer to the walk to Ali Pasha Bridge.
- Peter (8/5): - Joana was a great host - gave us lots of tips and links to sites to visit and booked a winery lunch. The breakfast and view from the breakfast area was fantastic! Bathroom needs a few repairs
- Jan (8/5): - Locatie en ontbijt was prima! Gastvrouw deed alles om het zo comfortabel mogelijk te maken voor ons . Dat er werd gerookt toen we wilden ontbijten. Wij zijn dat niet gewend en is in een kleine ruimte als je zelf niet rookt vies.
Daardoor gingen wij buiten zitten terwijl wij de gasten waren 😉. ..
- marine (10/5): -
- Samantha (10/5): Perfect in everyway - family who ran it were so helpful and friendly, room was gorgeous and the view spectacular! Locati - Absolutely everything!!! - if you get a chance to stay at this incredible accomodation do!! We’ve been traveling it’s our favourite by far!! Nothing at all other than wish we were there for another night!!
- Marion (10/5): Wohlfühlort - Alles war sehr schön. Joanna ist sehr herzlich und hilfsbereit. Sie hat uns sogar umsonst von der Busstation abgeholt und uns ein Video über den Weg zur Burg gegeben. Der Blick von der Frühstücksterrasse über die Häuser uud die Landschaft und zur Burg ist gigantisch. Die Terrasse hatte abends leise chilige Musik. Alles zum Wohlfühlen. Und Gjionkastra ist es wirklich wert zu übernachten oder auch für länger. Die Burg ist sehr schön, die Ali Pascha Bridge, die Menschen hier... Nur eine Kleinigkeit: ein verknotetes Seil als WC- Spülung war optisch nicht so schön.
- Tim (9/5): Frühstück mit Burg- und Bergblick - Liebevolles Frühstück, toller Blick von Terrasse, freundliche Gastgeber, geniale Anfahrtsbeschreibung via Video zur Unterkunft und von Unterkunft zur Innenstadt zu Fuß, Parkplatz vor der Tür Anfahrt recht steil (wie fast überall in Gjirokaster), aber gut schaffbar!
- CHRISTOPHE (9/5): Logement sympathique avec belle vue - Accès atypique, très belle vue sur le château pour le petit déjeuner, à environ 10 minutes à pied du centre, un accueil chaleureux et convivial
- Lucas (10/5): Como en casa - El trato de Joana y el cuidado que hace de los huéspedes es especial. Te hace sentir en familia. Está bastante cerca de los principales sitios de interés de la ciudad y al mismo tiempo, alejado de la zona más congestionada. La habitación tenía un balcón amplio y con vistas muy bonitas, y desde la terraza de la casa podían verse el castillo y las montañas. El desayuno fue otro punto importante, Joana se preocupó por tener un desayuno completo y rico, y encima buscó una alternativa sin gluten.
- ΒΑΣΙΛΕΙΟΣ (10/5): - Ήταν πολύ φιλικοί και εξυπηρετικοί.
Όλα ήταν τέλεια .
- Esra (5/5): - Kale manzarası , ütü istedik sağolsunlar temin ettiler , park yeri vardı Konumu bilerek tuttuk fakat arazi yapısından dolayı rampa inip çıkmak zor eski şehire gitmek yoruyor , tuvalet yeterince temiz değildi, duş kısmında saç vardı , kahvaltı dahildi fakat yumurtamız tam olarak buz gibiydi , belkide öyle yiyorlardır normalde
- sophie (8/5): Très bon séjour, décoration soignée et typique, équipements parfaits, point de vue exceptionnel, bon accueil. - Chambre d hôte très bien située. Petit déjeuner copieux - vue sur le château !
La propriétaire nous a envoyé plusieurs messages avec photos et vidéos pour nous indiquer la route. Trop peu d échanges avec la propriétaire. Nous ne l avons vue que pour le petit déjeuner assez brièvement.
Seul bémol (la propriétaire n étant en rien responsable) : un chien a aboyé jusqu au milieu de la nuit.
- Thomas (10/5): - The host was exceptionally welcoming and caring for us. Unfortunately I got ill during the trip and the host was kind enough to drive us to the hospital, translate Albanian into English, pick up medicine, and make lunch. She honestly was too kind. My girlfriend and I are so grateful for the kindness and hospitality she showed us :)
The breakfast in the morning is excellent! A broad range of items such as bread, eggs, pancakes, cheese, and jam/marmalade. The view when eating breakfast was incredible and worth a million by itself. Its in the shadow so the hot summer sun doesnt burn you in the morning.
Parking was also good. Plenty of space for cars. The host provides you with driving directions when asked.
The room itself was comfy and had all the amenities you wanted. AC also worked great.
- Els (9/5): Gezellige guestroom met prachtig uitzicht. - De guestroom is heel rustig gelegen. Net buiten de drukte van Gjirokaster maar dicht genoeg om er te voet naartoe te gaan. De gastvrouw was zeer vriendelijk en sprak goed Engels. Lekker ontbijtje met zelfgemaakte Byrek (beste die we gegeten hebben). Ontbijt met een prachtig uitzicht. Kamer is klein maar gezellig en alles is aanwezig.
- Olivier (10/5): Bel emplacement et déjeuner incroyable - Joana est une hôte exceptionnelle. Le petit déjeuner et la vue rendent le séjour 1000x plus agréable. À 10 minutes à pied du château et du bazaar.
- Murielle (10/5): Nous avons tout aimé tout est parfait - J’ai Tout aimé
Johanna est adorable
Elle répond de suite à chaque demande
L’endroit est calme
Paisible
C’est super beau
On peut se poser le soir boire un verre dans cet endroit avec une Magnifique vue
On est à côté du château
Une fois la voiture posée devant le logement on fait tout à pied Tout était parfait
- Johanna (9/5): - Beautiful breakfast view - also really enjoyed our own little balcony. A bit of distance from the crowds, gave a more authentic view of Gjirokastër. Great hostess!
- Eli (10/5): -
- Garland (10/5): - Joana was a great host at Clockwise Guesthouse and we had a fantastic stay at this beautiful place. The view over the castle from the terrace was incredible and it was just a short walk through to the centre of town. Joana was really helpful in helping us sort local activities and answering any questions we had about the area. She made us a lovely breakfast and we all slept well in the cosy rooms.
- Ton (8/5): Great stay with easy checkin, quick responses from Joana, and a lovely terrace with music to relax! -
- Natale Francesco EVOLI (10/5): - Tutto Niente
- swann (10/5): -
- Nele (9/5): - Super Frühstück auf der Terrasse mit wunderschönem Ausblick auf die Burg, freundliche Gastgeberin und schöne Zimmer Alles war super man sollte nur wissen dass der Weg in die Stadt sehr steil ist und aus engen Straßen besteht
- christelle (10/5): - Tout était parfait, l' accueil, l' emplacement avec cette vue incroyable sur le château, le petit déjeuner très gourmand etc... Je recommande vivement Rien tout était parfait
- Célia (10/5): - C’est de loin le meilleur établissement où nous avons pu loger en Albanie !
Joana est très gentille et réactive : donne les informations pour trouver le logement et est disponible pour donner pleins de conseils pour votre séjour dans le coin !
Le petit déjeuner est excellent et copieux : avec vu sur le château, au calme, c’est l’endroit parfait !
Merci :)
- F. (9/5): - Apartament położy jest w pięknej okolicy, jest cicho i spokojnie a widok z tarasu zapiera dech w piersiach.
Pokój jest bardzo stylowy i czysty. Właścicielka jest bardzo pomocna i kontaktowa. Wysłała nam filmiki z lokalizacją, które bardzo ułatwily dotarcie na miejsce.
Plusem jest darmowy parking pod samym wejściem do apartamentu.
- Mailys (10/5): - Cozy room, the host is really helpfull and kind. The breakfast served with the panoramic view is amazing.
- Inés (10/5): Maravillosa experiencia - Nos encantó, Joana se esforzó en ayudarnos a llegar con vídeos e indicaciones, pendiente de nosotros todo el rato. Esta un poco apartado del centro pero vale la pena por su tranquilidad, vistas y por su anfitriona, de 10. También nos adaptó el desayuno ya que uno de nosotros no puede tomar lactosa ni gluten, un desayuno abundante, ojalá nos hubieramos hospedado más días, nos trató como reyes. También nos recomendó lugares que visitar y donde comer. Una maravilla. Nos acordaremos siempre de ella y de este fantástico rincon. Nos gustó todo
- Iolanda (9/5): - Buena ubicación a 10 minutos a pie del bazar. Desayuno espectacular y con vistas al castillo. Muy amables en todo.
- Langer (10/5): - Joana war eine tolle Gastgeberin. Sie war zuverlässig und sehr freundlich. Sie gab uns Tipps wie wir zur Burg und zum Basar kommen. Wir haben den Aufenthalt dort sehr genossen. Ich kann clockwise guestrooms wärmstens empfehlen.
- Anna (10/5): Would definitely recommend and go back!! - Even though we only stayed for one night, it was hard to no notice the good service! Joana was helpful from the start with a good guide to get ourself to the hotel and also flexible with check-in.
When we arrived she recommended a great family owned restaurant at a wineyard close 15 min car drive from the guesthouse. She also had a friend that could drive us there so we could enjoy wine there. So happy she recommended that one - it was amazing food and atmosphere!
The hotel has a beautiful view, great location to get to the bazaar. The breakfast was amazing and just all in all a great visit! Room was big and with a balcony also showing the stunning view. Nothing really. If I would have to say something I think the bed was a bit hard, otherwise nothing.
- Emeline (10/5): Super séjour chez Joana, ses vidéos explicatives pour une arrivée sans stress. Une communication parfaite et des vidéos - La gentillesse de Joana, la communication avec notre hôte, l’emplacement et le petit dej Rien, tout était parfait !
- Clémentine (10/5): - La chambre était très cosy, avec grand balcon.
La vue de la terrasse au petit-déjeuner était incroyable, d'ailleurs celui-ci était délicieux : mention spéciale pour les confitures que j'ai adorées !!!
La chambre n'étant pas dans le centre, on est à l'abri de l'agitation du Bazar et les ruelles sont très jolies.
L'hôte était adorable. Rien
- M (8/5): - Joana is a great guestwoman of this questhouse.
The Guesthouse is on a beautiful place and we had a delicious breakfast on the most beautiful place with a view on the castle
The room was cosy and the interior was nice.
We received perfect information and short movies for reaching the accomodarion and the centre of Gjirokastër.. The matras was really hard but that's a personal thing.
The room was noisy.
- Charis (10/5): Κάτι παραπάνω από εξαιρετικό!!! - Αν ποτέ ξαναπάω στο Αργυρόκαστρο μόνο εκεί θα πάω! Εξαιρετικό δωμάτιο και οι ιδιοκτήτες καταπληκτικοί!!! Κάθε λεπτομέρεια πολύ προσεγμένη από τα δωμάτια, την διακόσμηση μεχρι και το πρωινό. Δίπλα στα δωμάτια οι ιδιοκτήτες εχουν ένα μπαράκι με βεράντα με θέα όλη την πόλη και το κάστρο όπου μπορείς να απολαύσεις την δροσιά και την θέα.
Πολλά μπράβο στα νέα παιδιά που το έχουν γιατί φαίνεται η αγάπη σε αυτό που κάνουν!!!
- Mareike (10/5): Absolute Empfehlung: himmlisches Frühstück über den Dächern der Stadt - Besser kann man es kaum treffen: das absolute Highlight ist die traumhafte Terrasse, auf der uns ein überwältigendes Frühstück serviert wurde. Aber alles ist von Anfang bis Ende durchdacht. Professionelle Videos weisen einem den Weg zur Unterkunft und zu Burg/Bazar. Der Weg ist selbst für kleine Kinder gut machbar, die Parksituation sehr entspannt.
Die Unterkunft ist sehr liebevoll eingerichtet und wurde vom Vater der Gastgeberin selbst erbaut, was man an dem Herz spürt, dass hier in die Beherbergung investiert wird.
Wir wären gern länger geblieben und kommen in jedem Fall wieder, falls es uns noch mal nach Gjirokastra verschlägt. Vielen Dank! Es war alles bestens
- Luke (10/5): - Lovely pleasant stay, Joanna was very helpful and the breakfast was very good
- Lucie (10/5): Parfait, je recommande vivement. - Très bien situé pour visiter Gjirokaster et cadre très calme.
L’hôte nous a donné pleins de bons conseils (restaurants sympa, baignade à proximité…)
Petit-déjeuner copieux et avec une vue splendide !
- Jourde (10/5): - Très bon accueil, calme et vue superbe le petit déjeuner est excellent bravo Rien
- Domenec (9/5): -
- Petra (10/5): Bijzonder plekje, fijne kamer met balkon, ontbijten met uitzicht op het kasteel. - Wat een gaaf plekje boven in Gjyrokaster met uitzicht op het kasteel. Een heerlijk ontbijt op een gezellig terrasje. Vanuit de B&B wandel je zo naar het gezellige oude centrum en de bazaar. -
- Ana (10/5): - Location- 10 min walk to the castle and to the bazaar, the accomodation is located on a hill, with amazing view of the castle and the city.
Place- nice, cozy and clean room and bathroom, beautiful terrace with amazing landscape, good music, quiet during day and night.
Staff- very friendly and helpful
Breakfast- diverse, fresh, good coffee Nothing
- JACA (9/5): Tranquilidad y relax - Las vistas y el desayuno son top. Joana es muy amable y dispuesta a explicar y a ayudarte. Incluso llamo para hacer una reserva en The Barrels para cenar. Todo estuvo perfecto durante nuestra estancia
- Nicola (10/5): Beautiful place, fabulous host. Perfect views - I was contacted before I arrived with details on how best to find the guesthouse on arrival. I was arriving early but was available for me to self check in then go out to explore. Was given easy directions to find the castle which didn't take long. Amazing communication. I got a taxi up from the bus station which wasn't very expensive . It was very hot so was glad if the taxi. 45 minutes to walk up the hill from bus station.Beautiful views from the communal sitting area, private balcony was great for having a coffee on. Breakfast was at the time I requested and had plenty to eat. I was going back to Tirana and the host kindly packed up some of my breakfast for my journey. That I had to leave
- Joris (10/5): -
- Louisette Boutet (10/5): Inoubliable Gjirokastër - L'emplacement était magnifique, la vue à partir de la terrasse de la salle à manger est face au château donc sublime autant le jour que le soir, le petit balcon de notre chambre faisait face à une vallée paisible.
Joana, la propriétaire est super sympathique, très aidante et elle nous a très bien dirigé pour pouvoir pleinement profiter de notre séjour à Gjirokastër.
La chambre est petite mais très propre et confortable, le déjeuner qu'elle nous a servi était délicieux !
- Lars (10/5): -
- Jenner (9/5): Amazing host, stunning views, brilliant location. - The wonderful location, 10 min walk to the historic old Bazar with so many restaurants, shops and bars. And a few minutes more to the historic castle. The views from the terrace were amazing and our host Joana was a shining gem. Breakfast served on the terrace was fantastic. The room was very basic which we didn’t mind as we were there for the location and views. Also value for money was exceptional. The bed was very firm but that may be a personal preference.
- Abdelhamid (9/5): Excellent séjour, notre hôte était très à l’écoute et attentive. - L’emplacement offre une vue magnifique sur la citadelle et la ville.
Etablissement à conseiller +++++ Rien
- GRAEME (10/5): Typical Albanian style, value for money - Joan was really kind and helpful, suggesting lots of places to visit. The room was spotless. Breakfast was great with different foods every morning.
Great place to stay. Everything was great
- Camilla Laura (9/5): Consigliato - L'hotel non è situato in pieno centro, ma è facilmente raggiungibile con una breve camminata. La struttura è complessivamente pulita e confortevole. Ottima la colazione, varia e abbondante. Il personale si è dimostrato sempre gentile e disponibile. Consigliato
- Michal (10/5): -
- Sandra (8/5): - Très bel emplacement pour visiter Gjirokäster et son district. Endroit facile d'accès. Joana est une hôte dévouée et sympathique qui sert un bon petit déjeuner. La vue du logement est formidable.
Philippe et Sandra
- Franziska (10/5): - Die Gastgeberin Joana ist super. Das Frühstück wurde liebevoll zubereitet und man hat dabei eine tolle Aussicht auf die Burg und Gjirokaster von der Terrasse aus.
Es hat uns sehr gut gefallen und würden definitiv wieder kommen.
- Thies (10/5): -
- Gregg (8/5): - Het uitzicht vanop de kamer en ontbijt waren top. Joana is steeds bereikbaar voor als je vragen hebt en ze heeft ook uitstekende tips gegeven voor activiteiten. Ligt op een niet zo evidente locatie om te bereiken maar haar uitleg ruim op voorhand hielp wel heel goed. Het bed is vrij hard.
- Ludmila (10/5): Bit tricky to find the place. - Friendly staff, very clean , good breakfast. Nothing
- Antón (9/5): - The staff, the room. The house is 10 minutos walking distance from the center. Very quiet and peacefully. The views and breakfast were awesome! Only thing we will say maybe is the bathroom (shower) because there was a lot of water in the floor but it really doesn't matter anyway.
- Werner (9/5): Über den Dächer Gjirokastras - Gute Lage, durch den Tunnel gelangt man viel schneller in die Altstadt, als gedacht. Balkon und Frühstücksterrasse sind ein Träumchen. Die Anfahrt ist tricky. Unbedingt dem zugesandten Film folgen!
- Peter (9/5): Sensationeller Ausblick gepaart mit Herzlichkeit - Der Empfang von Joana war sehr herzlich. Sie gab über alles Auskunft. Erzählte mir ein Teil der Geschichte Albanien, gab mir Ausflugsideen, schickte mir Links zu Orten in der Umgebung.
Der Weg in die Altstadt dauert 11 kurzweilige Minuten.
Auf die Burg hat man eine sensationelle Aussicht von der kleinen Frühstücksterasse.
- Pawel (9/5): -
- Evelin (8/5): - Toas oli keelatud süüa ja juua
- Océane (8/5): -
- Sandie (9/5): - Des hosts incroyable ! Très gentils, et prêt à aider (elle m'a fait une vidéo du chemin en voiture 😭😭) La chambre spacieuse, propre, bien équipée (frigo, bouilloire....). Dans un cadre nature hyper reposant. ++ La terrasse vue sur le château de Gjirokaster ! Magnifique Matelas hyper dur. 15 min à pied du centre (en montée et descente)
- Stephen (10/5): - Everything about our stay at Clockwise was fabulous. The rooms were cosy and had great views and a balcony to sit and appreciate them from. Joana was an amazing host: friendly, funny, and so so helpful. Her breakfast was homemade and tasty, each day had a different local dish. We loved them all. The location of Clockwise is perfect for walking to the castle and old bazaar. There is a local bus that stops 50 meters away that goes downtown. If you are coming to Gjirokaster, we would highly recommend staying at Clockwise Guestrooms. Thanks, Joana. 😀😀
- Coralie (9/5): Au top ! - Super ! Au calme avec possibilité de se garer. Literie ferme mais j’adore, très propre, vue magnifique et super petit déjeuner fait maison et varié. Joana est super, j’ai beaucoup apprécie parler avec elle, ses conseils et vidéos étaient essentiels tant pour trouver le logement que pour les recommandations de visites.
- Jacopo (10/5): -
- Jacqueline (10/5): - Wonderful host, exceptional location/view, walking distance to gorgeous castle and old town, very clean & comfortable. Very recommendable. Thank you!
- sharon (10/5): Fabulous stay - The room is lovely, and spotlessly clean. There is a private balcony at the back and a shared veranda at the front. There is also a veranda seating area with amazing views of the castle. Joana is a wonderful host and she went above and beyond to make our stay perfect 👌. The walk to the bazaar and castle is approximately 10 mins . If you are arriving by car joana sends a video to help you find the property.
- AHMET (8/5): - Yataklar rahat
Manzara ve balkon müthiş
Kahvaltısı lezzetli
Misafirperver ev sahibi Kış aylarında klima ısıtması yeterli olmayabilir. Banyoda duşakabin olmadığından duş sonrası heryer sırılsıklam oluyor.
- Monika (10/5): Entspannte Zeit in toller Umgebung mit großartigen Hosts! - 100 Punkte für Joana, ihre Familie und das wunderschöne Guesthouse. Sehr herzlich wurden wir empfangen und bekamen tolle Tipps für die Umgebung. Die Kommunikation mit Joana war super, denn sie kennt viele Geschichten aus der Gegend und teilt sie sehr gerne.Das Zimmer ist sehr liebevoll mit kleinen Details gestaltet und lädt ein noch länger zu bleiben. Joana hat uns wunderbar mit leckerem Frühstück und hervorragendem Abendessen versorgt. Es war etwas ganz besonders! Auf der Terasse mit Blick auf die Burg und die Berge lässt sich entspannt verweilen. Joana und ihr Mann sind unglaublich hilfsbereit und waren immer zu erreichen für uns. 1000 Dank für alles! Nichts
- Marianna (10/5): - Pekné, čisté ubytovanie, veľmi milí majitelia. Výhľad na hrad na terase pri raňajkách bol skvelý.
- Lorenz (9/5): Gerne wieder! - Schöne Aussicht, dir beste Aussicht hat man jedoch vom Frühstücksplatz/Terrasse. Parken vor Ort möglich. Anfahrt mit dem Video kein Problem. Ca 10 min. Zu Fuß ins Zentrum. Zimmer eher sehr dunkel und wirklich nur zum schlafen und duschen. Ähnlich wie ein Hotelzimmer.
- Roulio_rdo (10/5): - Emplacement et chambre au top pour découvrir cette belle ville. Hôte sympathique !
- Julie (8/5): Rapport qualité prix correct - Bon rapport qualité prix, proximité avec les principaux centres d’intérêts, hôte très prévenante. Literie très ferme, accès difficile par de petites routes pavées à double sens où une seule voiture passe, et nous n’avons malheureusement pas pu profiter du petit déjeuner car l’accueil était fermé, peut être aurions nous dû prévenir avant.
- Abdul Moiz (9/5): If you a good view with a comfortable environment, it is the right choice. - They had a very nice gallery where you can sit down and relax. You can have a very good view of the mountains and castle It was a but uphill which made the walk a bit difficult. Plus I think they put handwash as showergel and shampoo.
- Hamzeh (9/5): -
- Romain (9/5): - Emplacement parfait, très belle vue depuis la terrasse et centre accessible facilement à pied. Literie très ferme qui peut ne pas convenir à tout le monde
- Marion (8/5): - L'emplacement en face du château... Magnifique surtout pour le petit déjeuner
Le petit déjeuner également sucré et salé
Le personnel très sympa et très bon accueil
Nous indique le chemin à prendre pour se rendre au château
Rideau dans la salle de bain pour séparer les WC et la douche L'accès difficile mais possible avec de la patience
Parking est dans la rue
Une personne travaillait au dessus (sans doute pour de nouvelles chambres) jusqu'à 20h30... Donc faisait du bruit
