Pros:

Here’s

When we arrived at the location, we found out that the hotel has not been operating for the past two months and has been turned into a police station.
The Albanian government took over the hotel and converted it into a police station instead of a hotel.

After we got there, I saw that someone had sent me a message a few hours earlier, saying that due to a sewage system issue, they were unilaterally canceling our reservation.

Cons:

*There is no complimentary kettle , tea, coffee in the rooms
*Elevator reaches up to reception... but not up to room's floor... high stairs not good for elders and the people with knee problems

Pleasant
Pros:

The view from the room.

Cons:

For some reason the heating system did not work. When we asked the staff they told us that there is one heating/cooling system for the whole building and it was put on cooling, so they could not change it just for our room. The nights could get cold sometimes.

Beautiful location, they need to take the opportunities to upgrade the hotel.
Pros:

View from hotelroom balcony was beautiful. Breakfast is standard (omelet with toast, for extra options you need to ask).

Cons:

Arriving at the hotel you might have the impression that it is big with lots of staff, but this is not the case. Sometimes it’s like you are alone in the hotel.
The rooms are not cleaned every day. Towels are not changed and for toilet paper you need to ask.
Also the shower and bed need an upgrate.

Across the lake there is a event location for weddings and the music can be very (extremely) noisy.

Nevertheless, if you ask the personel for anything you need, they will do it for you.

Extremely disappointing and completely oversold on the Booking.com website
Pros:

The view and the poolside food were nice

Cons:

The dirty slimy green pool was only cleaned on our last day. To present a green pool to families is disgraceful, if a child was to get sick what would we do as basic services seem to be non-existent. Loud music was played late into the night by places around the hotel so sleeping was difficult. There was a wasp nest on our balcony which was not removed even after we mentioned it to staff. The aircon failed after day 2 of our stay and was not fixed which in the middle of summer is an issue. No other breakfast option other than eggs, no fruit or cereal. And worst of all they allow smoking in the restaurant, there were children and we were eating while people were smoking next to us. This hotel is tired and not maintained with no real sense of management

Worst hotel, rude staff, no spa despite advertising with having a spa
Pros:

Nothing good. At least there were no rats.

Cons:

Worst hotel in Albania. They advertise as a Spa hotel, but when we arrived, they had no spa. The person in the reception started with one excuse that they did repairs to the spa, and later started using the excuse that the spa is closed during the hot weather. They did not agree that this should have been communicated prior to booking (or at least prior to payment). We could not get money back after hearing the spa was closed. The staff is exceptionally rude and speaks poor English. The food in their restaurant heats up ready-made food (at least for the pizza we ordered).

When we got the room, they were not finished cleaning. Later we noticed that the room was not very clean. Keycard to the room did not work either.

Party venue across the lake playing loud music until late at night, and the lights from the party kept illuminating our room.
