The studio was fine. Nothing special,a bit shady entrance & it doesn’t get much lighting. Could have been cleaner. At least they let me checkin a little bit earlier.

Location is great, you could reach important sightseeings and public transport easily. The video guides to the office and the apartment were pretty helpful.
There was hardly any daylight coming to the apartment, moreover lights were not working properly. Neither worked a tea kettle. The bed was not stable and it could barely hold together. The was also a cockroach on the kitchen shelf. Three wooden pillars were broken and just stood in the apartment.

Hosts are very polite, print us bording pases and show all. Apartaments are big with lage terase.
The hotel is not located in the indicated street, but in a completely different place. Maps.me dont finde this. The search led to despair. Why couldnt you give directions in advance? When I found a cafe with wifi and called the owners, they told how to finde a hotel.

J’ai beaucoup aimé ce logement classe et propre. Calme climatisé et proche de tout. Super staff réactif et disponible pour aider (impression de carte d’embarquement sans frais). Tout était parfait.
Rien. Je retournerai dans cet établissement.

Położenie blisko ścisłego centrum - 10 minut spacerkiem
Mieszkanie posiada okna, ale nie można ich otworzyć, w związku z czym panuje zaduch. Tak samo w łazience - mimo wywietrznika. Jest aneks kuchenny, ale wyposażenie kuchni jest bardzo słabe - jedna patelnia i jeden mały garnek. Szału nie ma. Mieszkanie przerobione z pawilonu handlowego. W łazience brak wieszaków na ręczniki. W pokoju są lampki nocne, ale bez żarówek... Resztę proszę sobie dopowiedzieć.

Sijainti loistava, keskellä kaikkea. Tilava huone, kiva kattoterassi ja hyvä sänky
Hankala löytää. Huoneessa ei ollut laseja. Kylpyhuoneen kalusteet oli irti/rikki..

Don't judge a book by its cover. The outside view may be a little off putting but the apartment itself inside is well worth it.

Os funcionários são prestativos e amigável. O quarto em si é confortável
Se você está com malas grandes, sugiro que não fique aqui, a área em volta da acomodação é toda de terra e areia. Se procura também um lugar calmo não fique aqui, você escuta basicamente todos os barulhos da rua, e como há muitas construções em volta, você ouve barulho de construção das 07 a.m. às 07 p.m.
A localização no maps está incorreta, demorei cerca de 40 minutos para encontrar pois fica atrás de um bar e a localização não mostra isso.
A internet funcionou apenas na primeira hora de estadia, depois não funcionou mais, mesmo após avisar aos funcionários

La ubicación era perfecta
Me dijeron el día antes del check out que me imprimirán la tarjeta de embarque en la salida al día siguiente, porque es obligatorio llevarla impresa en Albania. Al hacer el check out no había nadie más que las chicas de la limpieza, decían que era el día libre de las personas de la oficina y que no había nadie. Llamé a los dos móviles que tenía y nadie contestó porque sonaban dentro de la oficina vacía. Nos dejaron tirados en el último minuto y nos crearon un gran problema por haberse comprometido

Die Lage der Unterkunft war gut, man war in wenigen Minuten in der Innenstadt. Durch das Video vor dem Check-in konnte man die Unterkunft sehr leicht finden.
Es ging los beim Check-in wo wir anstatt 56€ auf einmal 61€ zahlen mussten. Dann kamen wir ins Zimmer, es sah erstmal nett und gepflegt aus, als wir das Badezimmer sahen und es nutzten erschracken wir, der Unterschrank war defekt und die Toilette war nicht richtig im Boden verankert. In der Nacht wurden wir immer wieder wach, durch die Geräuschkulisse der Wc-Spülung. Dann kam die nächste Abzocke, wir fragten nach, ob das Büro unsere Boardingkarten drucken könne, der Mitarbeiter sagte ja und gab uns ne Stunde später Bescheid, wir können sie abholen. Wir dachten total nett, vllt kostet es 100Lek, ohje Vorankündigung sagte er nun, dass 2 Blätter 400Lek kosten.

I liked how close it was to the main square and how easy it was to find once the staff sent me a video on WhatsApp.
Nothing, it was great!

Ich habe ein super Zimmer erwischt mit Küche (Achtung: bei der Auswahl nochmal genau lesen, ob das Zimmer mit oder ohne Küche ist) und direkt auf dem Rooftop mit Rundumblick auf die Stadt und Sonnenuntergang.

Located by Myslim Shyri, which is a great area in Tirana to stay at. Rather spacious apartment like room. A roof with a view.
The shower head was broken and we couldn't use it.

Pensiunea este amplasata central pe o stradura linistita. Este curat. Exista wi-fi bun. In apropiere sunt restaurante, cafenele, magazine. Pentru o cazare de buget este destul de bine.
Camerele sunt diferite asa incat este o chestiune de noroc intre a fi bine sau mai putin bine. In baie lipsesc politele. In afara de un cuier pe usa, nu ai unde sa iti pui lucrurile (prosop, periuta de dinti, etc.). Scaune nu sunt, cel putin in camerele in care am stat noi, ci numai o canapeluta de 2 persoane. Sunt multe lucruri marunte care ar putea fi usor remediate, daca ar exista o grija mai mare pentru oaspeti (amplasarea tv, programe tv, amplasare mobilei, lipsa unui dulap, miros de canalizare, etc).

Ich habe vor der Ankunft eine WhatsApp Nachricht bekommen mit einer Wegbeschreibung, das hat mir sehr geholfen, da Google Maps den Standort nicht genau anzeigen konnte.
Der Herr an der Rezeption spricht sehr gutes Englisch und war freundlich.
Die Lage ist zentral, bis zum Flughafenshuttle läuft man 5 bis maximal 10 Minuten. Es gibt direkt in der Straße eine Geldwechselstube und einige Restaurants.
Ganz in der Nähe befindet sich die Straße, in der Mutter Theresas Familie gelebt hat (Rruga Hajdar Hidi) für Interessierte bestimmt eine schöne Sache.
Leider entsprechen die Bilder nicht der Realität. Es scheint nämlich so, als ob es Küchen gibt. In meinem Zimmer war keine Küche und ich konnte in 2 Zimmer einen Blick werfen, als diese frei waren. Ebenfalls keine Küchen.
An meinem ersten Abend fragte ich den Mann an der Rezeption, ob er mir einen Föhn und eventuell ein Messer geben könnte. Er antwortete mir, dass der Föhn bei einem anderen Gast sei und er mir morgen früh einen bringt. Und Messer gibt es nicht, weil es keine Küchen gibt. Hier also sogar die Bestätigung seinerseits, dass die Bilder wohl nicht der Wahrheit entsprechen.
Zum Glück konnte ich in meinem Zimmer noch einen Föhn finden, denn am nächsten Morgen kam niemand, um mir einen zu bringen (ich war bis 10 Uhr im Zimmer)
Obwohl dies eher üblich ist in Albanien (ich war zum 3 mal in Tirana) empfand ich es als sehr unpraktisch, dass es keine Duschkabine gab und das ganze Bad nach dem Duschen nass war. Es gab auch nichts, um das Wasser abzuziehen.
Ebenfalls waren keine Handtuchhalter oder Toilettenpapierhalter vorhanden.
Es gab zwar viele kleine Kommoden und Regale, aber keinen richtigen Kleiderschrank.
Während meines Aufenthaltes wurden Rohre vor der Unterkunft repariert, was dazu führte, dass ich von Samstag mittag bis Sonntag morgen kein Wasser hatte.
Das Bett war leider voller Fussel und Haare meines Vorgängers und in der Bettdecke waren mindestens 3 Brandlöcher.
Man bekommt im Prinzip das, wofür man bezahlt hat (3 Nächte 55€)

The location is excellent. It is down a side street in a busy commercial zone near to the centre. The WiFi worked well.
Not like the pictures at all! The pictures seem to be of a different hotel entirely. The rooms are very bland and white. There is a bed, TV, a couple of cupboards and a very basic bathroom. The bathroom flooded once while I was there when other guests all took a shower at the same time (the water came up from the drain). The room was cold and moisture built up quickly in the air. There was often noise at night. The walls had holes in them. The door frame fell apart too. The bathroom had black mould in it in places. The sink leaked water onto the floor from its drain. The whole place really needs significant investment to bring it up to a basic level.

La posizione rispetto al centro
Il bagno era disastroso, al tubo della doccia c’era capelli attaccati. La carta igienica era appoggiata ad una struttura tutta arrugginita, lo scaldabagno l’ho trovato spento e di conseguenza ho dovuto aspettare che si caricasse l’acqua calda! La doccia era vicino al water ed era sprovvista di box, non c’era neanche un tappetino da bagno!

Velmi dobře umístěné v centru města.
Dostali jsme větší pokoj za stejnou cenu, jelikož bylo na začátku nějaké nedorozumění, kdy si pracovníci nepředali zprávu, že jsem ubytování potvrdila a tak s námi nepočítali, ale vše se vyřešilo.
Nefunkční TV.

This place looks nothing like in pictures and is totally disgusting and not safe. There was a huge mold spot in the corner of the room. I’m highly allergic to mold and I informed the stuff about the problem but they ignored my messages and left me on seen for over twelve hours until I messaged them I see they read my messages. They started complaining about some kind of leaking problem and they are waiting for the spot to dry so they can paint it… All I got was an explanation but it’s not what I asked for! I asked for the solution because this situation highly affects my health. Those were two horrible nights… I couldn’t breathe normally because of the dyspnoea. Also my eyes got red and itchy. None of that was a reason for the stuff to let us change the room.
The mold was not the only problem. We didn’t get any bedding for the duvet so I asked for it and we got another bedshit. Pillow cases looked like someone already slept on them because there were a lot of hair on them.
There were people outside screaming out loud during the night. We didn’t feel safe at all and we don’t recommend this place to anyone, even to the worst enemy.
PS Even if you paint that mold spot, the mold will come up because it always does.

Stanza pulita, servita di asciugamano, telo doccia. Letto comodo. Porta d ingresso poco sicura.
La doccia, creata a muro tra il lavandino e il wc. Lo specchio sopra il wc, lo scaldabagno sopra il wc che gocciolava e cadeva sulla schiena quando esplicavi i bisogni. Orribile. Tutto sommato pen il prezzo pagato non mi posso lamentare più di tanto. Buono. Consigliato se non si pretendono lussi

Чудове розташування - лише 5 хв. від головної площі, поруч є жвава вулиця з магазинами і ресторанами. Також чудовою була ціна - я заплатив 33 євро за 2 ночі.
Деякі ммоменти власникам слід полагодити - не працював злив унітаза, душ потребує ремонту, також на телевізорі не було місцевих каналів.
