Nice House and cute lady welcoming us

Nothing

The landlady was so kind and the communication with the owner was very easy and fast

I loved the apartment, it's clean and big enough. It was also nice to sit in front of the apartment to relax a bit. The lady working/cleaning the property is very nice. And even tho we don't speak the same language, I really enjoyed her presence. The location is about 30 minutes walk from the old town and the new centre, but if you don't mind walking it's perfect. I loved walking to the beach (not even 10 minutes) and walk over the beach towards the center.

Nothing really, it was maybe a bit noisy but I think that's normal in Albania (hearing street dogs at night)

Great place for a night if you have a car :) It’s a bit far from the center, but perfect if you have a car! The host responded fast by phone and the lady that met us was super cute😊

The room was very big, it was like a small studio, so we had ample space. The bed was comfortable and everything was super clean when we got there. The beach is a 10 minute walk away, and you have several supermarkets and restaurants close, so you don't really need a lot, but it's a longer walk (30-40 min) to the center (longer if you go through the lit streets), so be prepared in case you want to see a lot of the historic sites in Vlorë. The highlight for us was that we really needed to do a load of laundry and we couldn't find the machine inside the room, even though the reservation said we'd have one. I asked the lady that managed the rooms and she showed me around to a small room with the washing machine. It felt like it was hers and she was loaning it to us. She didn't even let me use the powder I'd brought to wash, she loaded the machine and everything for us. As well, we planned on hanging our stuff when it was done, but by the time we came back from the beach to check in on it, she'd hanged everything up to dry. Loved that lady :)

Communicating to get the keys was a bit hard at first. We arrived and were told by another guest that the lady wasn't around but had been there 5 minutes before. We waited around and sent messages through Booking and whatsapp (tried also calling a couple of times), but no answer. I think maybe a relative helps the lady with the technological side of it. We ended up going out to eat and that's when the person answered my message. We ended setting a meet up for an hour later to check in :) Maybe do this part before you get there!

Spacious studio, clean and comfortable.

clean, friendly helpful staff, good kitchen, quiet location, clean beach, authentic neighbourhood

a bit far from the city and beach, no basic ingredients in the kitchen (salt, sugar…) , which is common for Albania

Very clean and the facilities were great. Its a little hidden but its a gem. Brand new property from the looks of it. Staff were very helpful.
