“This is the hotel that you come for the price and stay for the brilliant service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 February 2011

I stayed three nights in this hotel and the rooms were clean with a nice shower and usual amenities. The balcony was huge, overlooking the nicely designed garden and the fountain, providing a pleasant view.
However, the service and friendliness of the staff was unlike I have seen elsewhere (and due to my work I have traveled a lot).
When I arrived the WiFi was fine on the laptop but the signal was not strong enough for my mobile phone. The manager came in and installed a wireless router close to my room so I can get WiFi on my phone! Also, I was late for a meeting next day and waiting for the taxi took too long, so one of the staff woke up (having done a night shift the previous night) to give me a ride to the city.
While the hotel is close to the airport, they still provide a free shuttle service to the hotel (on a new Mercedes jeep :)

Overall, I would absolutely recommend this hotel and given another opportunity it would be my first choice.

“excellent price-quality !”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 August 2010

For the price I paid (50 euros) for a room for two persons I found the room luxurious and an nice swimmingpool. Also friendly service. I will sure come back.
It's a perfect hotel to start and (or) to finish a holiday because it's near the airport and it's perfect to take some rest because the surroundings are quite. The noise of the planes you don't hear in the rooms.

“Standard rooms here was a great deal”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 July 2010

I got a standard room there: air-conditioned, with a good-sized bathroom and
a clean solid bed. It wasn't the lap of luxury -- it was windowless, and
there was no internet in the room (but there is free
internet in the lobby).

The hotel's outdoor pool isn't huge, but it was pleasant and open late. They have a bar
and restaurant on premises, and you can also walk to a couple other nearby cafe's.
They advertise a fitness center, but it was an empty room with some mattresses in it
when I stayed there. The linguistic skills of the desk staff varied from rudimentary
to fluent, but generally I had no problem communicating. Although the hotel is
a few feet from the airport, it is a 20 minute walk on foot due to an annoying security
fence; so if you have luggage you will need a lift from the hotel van (which is free).

Of course, what attracted me was the price (30 euro), and the fact that I needed
something convenient to the airport. But I would consider this hotel in the future
even if I were on my way in rather than out, and even if I were spending a day
in the city: the bus to Tirana (from the airport
terminal) is very inexpensive, and this hotel offers at least as much as the pricier
hotels in the city.

“What a pleasant surprise!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 23 November 2008
1
person found this review helpful

Having arrived late on my flight into Tirana, I was approached by the swarm of taxi drivers as soon as I got there--they are the most persistant I have ever encountered--one even followed me to the hotel! In any case, the bus to town stops running at around 18h00 (or 19h00, I am pretty sure the cabbies lied to me that night), and I hated the idea of having to pay the cabbies since their approach was such a turn-off--as I mentioned they will lie to you and tell you there is no bus, or tell you that the bus is for personnel only which it is not, as I found out the next day. But in any case as soon as I walked outside, I saw this hotel and thought I would give it a try.

They were doing construction on it, although I was not disturbed as I heard no noise. The best, and most surprising part, was the price--25 Euro for an airport hotel, and I had no reservation--unheard of anywhere else! I am sure they can get more and will when construction is done, but that shouldn't be for a while. I was very pleased and was shown a room on the third floor. I did pass a construction area, and the elevator was not working, but that was not an issue for me. I went down, had a very light meal as suggested by one of the owners (I was sick from the flight) in the restaurant. The food is good, and breakfast the next day was warm and good as well--an omelette with coffee. Especially after having seen what other hotels were like in Albania, I consider this better than a two-star hotel in Paris, which is more than sufficient. I was able to get the local bus into town the next day and overall saved myself a nice chunk of change.

The rooms only have heat pumps, so make sure you know how to turn yours on (the staff showed me) before you go to bed or you could wake up cold, as it gets cold at night. The bathroom in my room was typical of a three-star Paris hotel, nice and clean, and it had a bidet.

The phone number I provided is one of the owner's mobile phones, as the hotel was having some problems with the phone service when I got there. I think that was a general problem, as it took me three days to reach another hotel in Albania before I went there, so you have a better chance to get through if you use a mobile phone anyway. I should also mention that, to my surprise, I was told that despite being right next to the airport, the hotel experiences power outages like the rest of the city even though the airport doesn't. I did not have any during my stay, however. But all hotels in Albania are subject to the power outages, so that should not deter you from staying here.

While the location is not in the center of town, if your flight gets in after 6PM (18h00), this is a great alternative and it is in a quiet (but not dead) suburb. I would stay here again definitely, especially if I had an early morning flight out or my flight got in after 18h00.
