Near the youth beach of Saint Tropez.
Pros:

Absolutely wonderful stay! The newly renovated property was beautiful, spotless, and very comfortable. The owners were incredibly kind and welcoming, and their hospitality truly made me feel at home.

The breakfasts were absolutely delicious, especially the traditional Albanian breakfasts, which gave us a lovely taste of the local culture. We also loved the homemade-style doughnuts — they were very similar to Ukrainian ones and were a particular favourite of both me and my child. 💙💛

The owners went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable. They helped us arrange a taxi and even took my things to the dry cleaners and brought them back. Everything was done with such care and kindness.

What I appreciated most was the exceptional cleanliness — everything was impeccably clean, which made us feel comfortable and at home from the very first day.

A truly wonderful experience. Thank you for making our stay so special! Highly recommended! ⭐️

Cordialità e disponibilità
Pros:

La posizione dell'hotel era strategica: a pochi passi dal mare e vicinissima al centro/lungomare. Il personale molto accogliente e disponibile. Pulizia ok e colazione tradizionale con frittelle fresche, marmellata di fichi fatta in casa, frutta e formaggio locale.

Cons:

I servizi, in generale, sono a volte approssimativi. Un esempio, la stanza era nel complesso accogliente ma c'era una presa a penzoloni, staccata dal muro e, per il riordino della stanza, dovevi far sapere se gradivi che lo effettuassero, altrimenti, non veniva eseguito (se non all'arrivo e/o alla partenza degli ospiti). Tuttavia, erano sempre gentili e disponibili e, dunque, è stato, nel complesso, un soggiorno piacevole.

Pros:

Très bon rapport qualité/prix. Hôtel familial et chaleureux, avec une chambre récemment rénovée, propre et confortable. Le personnel est accueillant et serviable. Mention spéciale pour le très bon petit déjeuner fait maison, avec des produits de qualité. Une très bonne expérience, je recommande !

Cons:

salle de bain petit mais fonctionnel

Séjour agréable et calme en famille
Pros:

Séjour agréable et calme en famille

J'ai passé un bon séjour dans cet hôtel. L'endroit est très calme et l'accueil est chaleureux car l'établissement est géré par une famille attentionnée. Le lit était très confortable, ce qui permet de bien se reposer.
Une bonne adresse que je recommande !

Cons:

Deux petits points d'amélioration pour le futur : les horaires du petit-déjeuner (7h-9h) sont un peu courts, une fin à 10h serait idéale pour les vacances. De plus, l'ajout d'une bouilloire dans la chambre serait un vrai plus pour le confort des clients.

La parte di Valona che non ti aspetti
Pros:

I titolari sempre presenti per qualsiasi tipo di aiuto, colazione Albanese veramente ottima cappuccino super. Anche la pulizia delle camere nulla da dire. La posizione all'inizio ci ha spiazzato perché sembrava decentrata e ai confini della realtà.. invece dopo il primo giorno abbiamo scoperto che eravamo veramente vicinissimi alla zona della movida e del porto. E soprattutto abbiamo scoperto intorno a noi dei ristoranti veramente top. Se volete un vacanza wild l'hotel Balili vi sorprenderà 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Cons:

Avevo scelto una camera fumatori ed ho avuto una camera senza balcone, ma direi che non è stato un problema ho fumato molto meno. La prima notte abbiamo dormito in un letto doppio probabilmente c'è stata un'incomprensione in fase di prenotazione, ma il giorno ci hanno fatto trovare il letto matrimoniale con tanto di devitalizzazione.

Ok place where to spend the night, but would not stay for more than 1 night.
Pros:

Ok and somewhat quiet location, good that breakfast was included, had AC, had refrigerator, had towels and shower gel, free parking on the street.

Cons:

When we arrived, the room was super warm. They gave us only 1 room key (for 2 ppl) so we couldn’t leave the AC on to cool off a bit the room while we went for late dinner to the city centre. The shower is inconvenient and after the shower everything is wet, also impossible to cool off the bathroom even if not taking the hot shower. Not a lot to choose from for breakfast.

Pros:

Colazione sufficiente tenendo conto che eravamo soli e il titolare comunque disponibile

Cons:

Camera discreta ma il bagno proprio no!!!!! Senza una doccia separata si bagnava ovunque
La posizione? Da aver paura a girare la notte....intorno spazzatura e macerie ovunque. Abbastanza vicino al mare ma per non sentire l'odore di fogna bisognava spostarsi di almeno un km

Pros:

L hotel è abbastanza accogliente, le stanze sono ordinate e ben ristrutturate, la pulizia non e stata giornaliera ma solo una volta a settimana. La colazione e nella norma, il personale è stato gentile e si è adoperato a procurarsi i cornetti al posto della colazione albanese.

Cons:

Il gestore, al termine del soggiorno, dopo che siamo andati via , ha comunicato a BOOKING.IT falsamente che non abbiamo soggiornato presso la struttura quando noi siamo stati regolarmente e pagato in contanti il soggiorno.
