Una noche ideal en Gjirokastra
Pros:

El personal estuvo muy atento y se preocupó por nuestra llegada. Fue muy fácil llegar, el trato con la persona encargada de las llaves y la seguridad.

Cons:

Aunque su padre no sabía hablar inglés, estuvimos hablando por teléfono con el hijo y todo fue super bien. No fue algo negativo a destacar.

Bon séjour à Gjirokaster avec un rapport qualité prix imbattable
Pros:

Petite chambre mais très bien aménagée. Il y a tout ce qui faut climatisation, wifi, télé mais le grand atout c'est la localisation car situé en plein centre ville ancienne ottomane, les ruelles historiques ainsi que le château sont vraiment à qlq centaines de mètres à pieds. Pas besoin de prendre sa voiture.
L'hôte est disponible et réactif.
À recommander !

Comfortable, quiet room on road that connects with the Old Bazaar.
Pros:

The owner met me out in the street which was a nice gesture. For the purposes of a tourist, this room was conveniently located on Rruga Alqi Kondi which extends uphill into the Old Bazaar section of town. I ate 3 different meals in the Old Bazaar area. From the Old Bazaar area, one can continue onward to the castle or to the Zekate House. There are smaller shops nearer to the lodging. There is a large and comfortable bed and a mini fridge is available. It is attached to a rather spacious bathroom. As to sleeping at night, I thought the neighborhood was quiet. As to the day I had to leave, I simply walked downhill on Alqi Kondi and switched streets once or twice to wind up at the bus station.

Cons:

The bus from Tirana dropped me off at a roundabout at the upper end of Boulevard 18 Shtatori. In fact, it wasn't too far from my lodging. However, the Rruga Lufta E Mashkullores is a very steep, cobblestoned, leg burner! It was a bit of a workout to hike up that alleyway with my luggage in tow from Boulevard 18 Shtatori. Is this the fault of the owner? Absolutely not! I just wish to advise my fellow tourists that much of what you will want to see and experience are on the mountainsides of Gjirokaster.. so get those hiking boots on and prepare for leg burns!

Pros:

La ubicación, el lugar estaba bien. El anuncio era sincero.

Cons:

El olor a humedad a la entrada del edificio. El baño es suuuuper incómodo. No hay trapo de piso ni lampazo ni nada para secar y no tiene cortina. La ducha es sobre el inodoro. Por lo que una vez que te bañas todo queda mojado.
