I've stayed in a lot of hostels and I have to say, I can't fault this one. I breathed a sigh of relief when I walked in the door and remained relaxed the whole time. Had some brilliant laughs with both staff and other guests. Stay here - it's a good one!

I had a good time and the staff were able to provide lots of ideas on what to do around the town. Would stay here again for sure.

The hostel location in the old quarter of Gorica provides a charm that another hostel cannot create, that purely comes from the location. Working backpacking staff along with home-cooked dinners, DVD room and outdoor chill-out/drinking/socialising area provide a great hostel. Thanks Scotty and your crew for a lovely stay in Berat

This hostel had a great feel, really friendly helpful staff, clean rooms with lockers and clean bathrooms. Unfortunately Albania has a water shortage meaning that the showers ran out after the morning. location is good and easy to get to busses and other attractions.

It is a good hostel, very valuable for money, and with a helpful staff. You must go with info about how to reach it -I went without map and indications and was very hard to find. It is far from the centre, but it is a small town and you can reach it in a few minutes of a pleasant walk -the views of the old town are awesome. I recommend it for any backpacker going to Berat.
