They are an incredibly nice and hospitable family! They treated me like a daughter or family member. If you want to experience Albanian hospitality and generosity, you should stay here. The owners are so kind; they even took me to the doctor when I fell in the bazaar. They are also great cooks, and I was lucky enough to be included in a family barbecue. If you want to experience true Albanian hospitality, choose this guesthouse. The room is also very quiet, and there is a lovely garden too.

Bujtina Hadër Xhebro in Tepelenë provides accommodation with a garden and a bar. When you reach this guesthouse... not only do you find a house, but you feel like a real guest. A guest of the house, a guest of the family. Almost a member of the family. Try all the food. Try the "sarma", the cheese... the Trahana... everything is locally homemade. Fresh from the garden or the mountain around. Thanks, everyone! Ariola, Natasja, Urania, Uncle Jaho, and "Arbor". It was not just a stay... it was an experience with you all.

Featuring a garden, terrace and views of city, Trigona Guest House & Hostel is set in Gjirokastër, 44 km from Zaravina lake. Facilities include a children's playground and free WiFi is available throughout the property. it is a small cozy accommodation consisting of one hostel room and two private rooms. we enjoyed first few nights here so much that we extended out stay for another week or so. it did feel homey, with lot of common space and completely functional and clean pleasant kitchen (oil etc not available). the place is very clean too, the owners and cleaning lady were very friendly and responsive. + if u decide to cook, there are few shops just few meters from the hostel, that was really cool. * actually your stay will depends on other guests and their behaviour, because it is small place. but when we were there, we didnt feel like it has very sociliazing vibe, but more of a silent vibe.
