A historical building, in the heart of the old town of Gjirokastër, with an exquisite view of the old bazaar and the amazing castle. The house was built around 1830. The house is located in the same building as Emblematic House 1 in the historical area of the city, about 200 meters from the center. The house has the following facilities: 2 bedrooms, a bedroom with a double bed overlooking the city and a bedroom with two single beds. A living room with a sofa bed, an equipped kitchen with a dishwasher and an oven, and 1 bathroom with a walk-in shower. A balcony and a terrace with amazing city views to enjoy your coffee or a cold beer. Free parking in the area about 50 meters from the house.
