Pros:

Raňajky v cene. Lokalita. Príjemný personál:)

Cons:

Vylepšila by som vybavenia izieb, chýbajú kanvice a aspoň 2sporak malý, vidličky, lyžice, taniere, poháre, lebo izby majú vlastnú kuchyňu, len nie sú vybavené. Ale po opýtani na recepcii, sme dostali všetko:) Sú veľmi ochotní. Mínus dávam sprchovému kútu, ktorý je tak malý, že voda čliapa všade.

Herzlicher Familienbetrieb, perfekte Lage und unvergessliche Gespräche mit Aziz – wir kommen definitiv wieder!
Pros:

Wir hatten einen wundervollen Aufenthalt im First Hotel Saranda! Aziz und seine Familie haben uns unglaublich herzlich empfangen und standen uns bei allen Fragen zur Seite. Besonders die langen, schönen Gespräche mit Aziz auf der Veranda werden uns in Erinnerung bleiben.

Wir hatten einen sehr guten Parkplatz direkt vor der Tür und konnten vieles bequem zu Fuß erreichen – der Strand ist nur wenige Minuten entfernt, der Hafen etwa 15 Minuten und Ksamil rund 20 Minuten mit dem Auto.

Wir haben uns wie zu Hause gefühlt und kommen definitiv wieder – allein schon, um Aziz wiederzusehen und weitere schöne Gespräche mit ihm zu führen. Vielen Dank für alles!

Pros:

Uneori, cele mai frumoase locuri nu sunt neapărat cele mai luxoase, ci cele în care te simți „ca acasă”. ❤️

Hotelul acesta nu a fost despre lux sau perfecțiune, ci despre oameni, atmosferă și acea căldură pe care o simți din prima clipă. Am venit ca turiști și am plecat cu amintiri frumoase.

Multumim "Hugo" , un om deosebit, care a făcut ca șederea noastră să fie și mai specială. Ne-am simțit atât de bine încât, sincer, am mai fi rămas 😊

Nu este cel mai luxos hotel dar este cu siguranță unul dintre locurile pe care le vom ține minte cu drag. ❤️

Pros:

Bardzo przyjemny hotel, super lokalizacja blisko do sklepów i restauracji oraz na plażę. Parking przy hotelu. Świeża pościel i ręczniki. Klimatyzacja. Bardzo miły i pomocny gospodarz. Od razu reagował na prośby. Śniadania skromne, ale wystarczające, gospodarz podawał pyszną kawę do stolika. Super widok z tarasu zarówno w dzień jak i wieczorem.

Pleasant stay and great hospitality
Pros:

We had a very pleasant stay. The room had a great size and was comfortable. The bathroom is a little more dated and could benefit from some updating, but everything we needed was there and worked well.

Breakfast was delicious, with a great variety of fresh options that were regularly refilled. It was also lovely to have the choice of sitting indoors or outside.

Parking was available, and the host was very helpful in arranging a parking space for us. Parts of the parking area had sunshades, which was a nice bonus. The road leading to the parking was quite narrow and not in the best condition, so it can be a little challenging to get there.

The WiFi connection was good in the lobby, hallway and on the terrace, but unfortunately it rarely worked in our room.

The rooftop terrace was a real highlight: nice, well organised, and with plenty of space to sit. There was even a drying rack available, which was very practical.

And the host was exceptionally helpful throughout our stay. When we had some difficulties booking a tour, he went out of his way to help us and even called the tour company on our behalf to speak with them in Albanian. We really appreciated how helpful and attentive he was overall.
