I stayed in a private room- it had a lovely balcony overlooking the river and hill opposite where the castle is. The room & private bathroom were nice, staff were friendly and had a pretty good included breakfast. There wasn’t much going on in the communal area but this is to be expected travelling off season in late October. Overall I had a nice and relaxing stay! Super good location in Berat also, close to lots of restaurants.
