Our favourite hostel in Albania. Convenient location (not up a hill) and the building itself is gorgeous! The staff were awesome in helping us book the wine tour (highly recommend!!) and a taxi to Sarandë. The private room itself had a view over the courtyard, great bathroom and aircon.

Lovely hostel right in the middle of Berat. Delicious breakfast, very clean facilities and a nice relaxed atmosphere. Perfect for a day exploring Berat or start here for a tour of Osumi Canyon.

I loved my stay here. It was very clean and comfortable, the free breakfast is good, and the location is amazing. The staff was so nice and helpful. The pub crawl was really fun too! I would stay here again if I ever come back to Berat
