Pros:

The man who welcomed us was very friendly, he told us a little bit about the history of this beautiful country and everything was very quick and simple. We were also able to check in earlier as the room was ready which was amazing as it was our last day in Albania so I really appreciate the extra time we had to explore the city of Tirana. Walking distance from the central area, and many amenities nearby.

A hidden gem
Pros:

No elevator. Missing sign out front, but an employee came out and got me. The building seems old, but my room had modern attributes. Physical key for the door, but needed key card to activate electricity. Working air conditioner and black out shutters. Very close to the City Center and plenty of places to eat nearby. Owner and staff very, very NICE! Has a family feel to it. Breakfast starts at 7. Will definitely be returning.

Pros:

Buffee aamiainen oli huono ja yksipuolinen. Respassa ei ollut koskaan henkilöä paikalla. Huoneen ikkunat olivat kadulle, jatkuva liikennemelu. Huoneesta puuttui kangasverhot, pidikkeet olivat kylläkin. Wc-paperia piti pyytää lisää erikseen. Kph oli muuten siisti, mutta hammasmuki likainen.

Pros:

I stayed in hotel Kruja Tirana for 4 nights and then I returned for one extra night as I really liked it. From start to finish nothing was too much to ask, Customer service is the highlight here as well as location.
One of the managers himself assisted me immediately with an issue I had with the bed , they provided me with a really comfy and new mattress topper which made all the difference, they helped me with my luggage and provided me with useful info about the area.
The hotel is less than 8 mins walk to skanderberg square, very central.
The staff is so friendly and they try to help as much as you can. Some speak good English some don't but they will try to help as much as they can.

Breakfast is perfectly adecuate , is freshly cooked and tasty, considering I paid under £25.00 a night for a private room , I think it's great. There's plenty of hot water and towels as well.
There's also a little bar on the ground floor which is handy.

Things you do need to consider:
There is no kettle in the room
you do hear road noise but that's the same in any central location.

Overall I definitely recommend this hotel due to its location , hospitality,value for money and convenience.

Only positive thing - location
Pros:

The check-in process was a nightmare: no one at the reception desk, after 20 minutes a guy came from the on-site cafe asking me if I had a reservation, then he was not able to find my booking. In the end he found it somewhere on his mobile phone.
Instead of buffet breakfast I was offered a glass of juice, a cup of coffee and two pieces of spinach burek.
THe room was cold without heating, fortunately there was A/C which I used to warm the room a bit.
Definitely have been accommodated in better hotels in Tirana. The only advantage of this one is its location near the main square.
As far as the staff, I can´t say much because with the exception of the nice elderly lady in the breakfast room I didn´t meet anyone - I saw nobody at the reception desk at all.

Bad Cleaning and Check in Experience
Pros:

The cleaner came so late with the excuse of "Traffic" it took too much time to clean the room and we waited for so long. They kept lying us to wait for more. The old serving guy was very rude and he said something like" Okay no more talking, she is clening" I advice you to check other hotels when you decide to reserve hotels near Skenderbeg Square

Pros:

The staff are friendly and the rooms are adequate. But the reception is often empty and the permanent staff don't speak English.
The hotel's location is very good, a five minute walk from the city's main square. And a police headquarters is across the road, which should theoretically make it safer.
The room had no heater and the staff bought packed snacks from a nearby store for the "breakfast included" part of the deal.

Pros:

The best bits... close to Skanderbeg Square and next door to a good restaurant and bar. On to the not so good bits.... The hotel is very tired and needs some tlc. I don't expect home from home, but I expect the features to be as described... there was no rainfall shower, the TV was 22" not 32", there was no kettle, no daily housekeeping. My fridge door fell off, and the toilet leaked. I reported this but it wasn't fixed, just towels placed around the base of the toilet so that I didn't get my feet wet. Breakfast was rather uninviting also. I will say though, the bed was comfy.

Pros:

Very friendly and helpful, clean, but with a feeling of being run down, everything well worn including towels, also carpets and extreme use of air freshener in the room not great. Good location.
