Miejsce do którego się wraca wspomnieniami o którym się opowiada znajomym. i opowiada
Pros:

Absolutnie rewelacyjne, pomocne i wciąż uśmiechnięte małżeństwo właścicieli.
Lokalizacja tuż obok uliczek bazarowych , ale jednak cicha.
Śniadania nie do przejedzenia i co dzień inne serwowane przez gospodynię wprost z kuchni.
Do tego raki gospodarza.
Po prostu rewelacja

Geweldige hosts en perfecte locatie!
Pros:

We hadden absoluut een prachtige kamer met perfect uitzicht. De locatie was ook nóg beter dan initieel gedacht. Het is in het oude centrum, als je de deur uitloopt heb je een museumhuis en het etnografisch museum op minder dan een minuut loopafstand en met 5 minuten loop je de bazaar op. De host is ontzettend lief en toen wij het zeer rijkelijke ontbijt niet opkregen stopte ze als een echte moeder nog wat eten toe voor onderweg. Kamer was ook ontzettend schoon. Dit zijn echt mensen die hart hebben voor de zaak. De parkeersituatie is wat ingewikkeld, maar ze zetten voor jou je auto op een veilige plek langs de weg. Mocht je met de auto komen is dit dus ook geen probleem. Ik zou deze accommodatie absoluut aanraden!

David and I had a lovely experience with a delightful couple at the Ahmetaj guest house.
Pros:

What a warm reception and refreshments awaited us. We appreciated being collected from the bus station ( and dropped off 3 days later ). Zamera and Sula gave us a fabulous Guest house experience, providing wholesome, hearty breakfast, sending us off with left overs for the day too. The Guest house is well located for exploring The Unesco heritage Castle and historic village. We thoroughly recommend choosing Ahmetaj as a location for exploring Gjirokaster.

Cons:

The shower/ toilet area needs to be divided as water remains on the floor and makes the area unsafe.
The bed mattress needs to be upgraded, but the linen and towels were of a high standard.

Dejligt og autentisk ophold i hjertet af Gjirokastër
Pros:

Vi havde det skønneste og mest autentiske ophold. Stedet er velholdt og skinnende rent, og værterne er utroligt søde og hjælpsomme. Vi fik serveret kaffe ved ankomst og fik skøn, hjemmelavet morgenmad. Stedet ligger perfekt, cirka 5 minutters gang fra centrum af bazaren. Kør ikke helt op til stedet, men kontakt værterne, hvis du ankommer i bil, så hjælper de dig med, hvor du kan parkere på vejen lige nedenfor ejendommen. Kan ikke anbefale det nok!

Wonderful breakfasts, traditional stay with great location.
Pros:

One of our favourite stays, Zamina is wonderful and greeted us with food and drinks on arrival. We had a lovely little cave room with an outdoor area. It was so cute and well set up! Her garden is amazing and breakfast was a feast (be prepared!), the food is all fresh from her garden or their farm and it just keeps coming! Honestly stay here for an authentic Albanian welcome with great food. Also location is incredibly close to old town!

Cons:

Nothing

Amazingg and delicious
Pros:

Our stay here was amazing. We were welcomed with little treat. The view from the property is amazing and close to the castle and old town. Breakfast was delicious. The owner she gave everyone her homemade fig jam which was amazing and when I asked her about it she gave me a whole jar to take it home. Everyone was loving and very helpful. If ever coming back will definitely stay here again

Exceptionnel
Pros:

La chambre etait tres propre, coquette et confortable. Le lieu est calme et nous etions situes au coeur de la vieille ville. Comme le GPS nous a mal aiguille, notre hote est venu nous chercher et a gare la voiture. Zamira nous a accueillis avec des beignets et de la confiture maison. Le lendemain matin, ellle nous a prepare un petit dejeuner tres copieux, savoureux et genereux comme elle!!
