The Hotel Mondial in Tirana has a great and very friendly staff. They seemed to work very hard to meet your needs. I stayed there for four nights. The food in the restaurant was excellent, the rooftop bar was a nice place to have a drink or set out on the deck a soak in some sun. The pool on the roof was too cool for my taste. The room were clean and comfortable but nothing fancy. Plenty of hot water in the shower.
The location was good. A short walk to the square downtown and many bars, restaurants, shops and casinos in the area. However crossing the street can be a bit of a challenge. Traffic is heavy and there are a lot of crazy drivers there.
