I would recommend to stay in this hostel. The only drawback is that it was quite cold during our stay. The air conditioning wasn't able to heat up the romms entirely due to the low outside temperatures and the bad isloation.

This hostel was centrally located, the staff were really friendly and knowledgeable and the little lounge/bar was a great place to chill :)

Relaxed atmosphere and good facilities here.The staff there were excellent and the hike upto the Pellumba caves was fantastic. We all suffered some bites while staying in the hostel which was perhaps caused by the unseasonally high temperatures and the outdoor pond water feature. Would recommend and return to this hostel..with insect repellant!

This place is really nice. The hostel has a nice garden that just isolates you from the traffic and crowd of Iirana. Staff is nice and helpful. A 15 minutes walkfrom Tirana's main square, but it's easy : always straight on.

Excellent hostel very close to the city centre with very helpful staff. No 24 hour reception though so find a cafe to sit in if you arrive early in the AM from Macedonia!

This hostel is located in an old villa just south of the city centre. The staff and guests seemed to be a fairly ecletric bunch - but everyone was friendly. There is a small bar out the back and a large garden area to socialise in. The facilities were clean enough but rooms could have done with some airconditioning (the small fan they had in my dorm just wasnt effective enough to deal with the hot nights).
