Beautiful traditional house at a gate to the old town of Gjirokastër.
Pros:

The hotel is in a beautiful traditional house with a garden, looking on hills and traditional houses. Its entrance is one level below the main pedestrian square, which can be accessed through a public elevator (when it works) or by a large outdoor staircase. The room decoration is also traditional. From the square, the heart of the old town is paces away. The reception is friendly.

Bon rapport qualité/prix
Pros:

- La gentillesse et la serviabilité du personnel (le gérant parle bien l’anglais)
- L’emplacement (à 2min à pied du centre de la ville)
- Le parking (payant) à côté de l’hôtel

Cons:

- L’accessibilité est difficile (il faut bien suivre le plan envoyé par le gérant pour ne pas se perdre dans les petites ruelles)
- Il n’y a pas d’ascenseur
- Dans notre chambre, il n’y avait pas de volet occultant…

Gute Wahl
Pros:

Die Lage ist super und kann direkt im Parkhaus for 4 Euro die Nacht parken und direkt zum Hotel ein paar Meter gehen, wenn man eine Etage runter fährt. Sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit.

Excellent facilities and location
Pros:

Clean and quiet, steps from the bazaar with lots of dining options, and a view of the castle from the patio. Comfortable beds and extra blankets and pillows are provided. The owner Ermal was extremely helpful in terms of logistics and recommendations. I can heartily recommend this place.

Cons:

No complaints!

Buen lugar para visitar la ciudad
Pros:

Tiene un parking al lado, con salida directa al hotel que cuenta 4€/dia. El hoyel está céntrico

Cons:

El desayuno podría mejorarse, como en casi todos los hoteles de Albania, pero es correcto. Cobran comisión del 2.5% por pagar con tarjeta, aunque realmente nos cobraron un porcentaje inferior
