Prepare for a long wait for the elevator every time you want to use it!

When checking in and seeing what our room options were, we wanted to cancel our booking immediately. The rooms are not the cleanest, and had a problem with hot water at one point. There were stains on the coffee table that the house keeper wouldn’t wipe, the floors looked and felt dirty, the couches looked like there never been cleaned.
The room upgrade was a waste of money as the room was very small, view was OK, the beach in the property is very small and not at all what I expected.
When we tried to cancel our booking we were told we wouldn’t get a full refund and would lose the 1 night stay as penalty. When asking for cancellation confirmation the staff member was rude, wouldn’t provide a receipt, kept rolling his eyes and he spoke in a very low tone, I could barely hear him. Because he wouldn’t provide cancellation confirmation, we decided to stay as we thought Expedia won’t provide the rest of the refund without proof!!
The hallways are very musty, the carpets are so dirty and stained. Breakfast was OK, coffee was extra and not included, it was €4/coffee may I add.
I would never stay here again!

Summary of our stay: Unnecessarily inconvenient.
This hotel has some great things about it. but also some things that are just unnecessarily inconvenient.
overall the stay at this hotel is good
the Rooms are Ok. our room had a lot of things that were broken or half broken; the chairs had broken legs, the toilet roll holder was loose and the shower door was also loose.
The going up buttons to call the elevator in our floor. (3rd) did not work, so we had to press the down button to call the elevator. which meant we often had to travel with the elevator down first before going up to the roof for the restaurant) it's not a big deal but just annoying.
To get the towels for the beach and pool area you have to go down to the basement in the parking lot. why can't the girl sitting by the pool, admitting guest to the pool area have the towels so guest doesn't have to try to navigate this hotel? I don't know.
We asked in the reception If it's possible to look at the rooftop pool area which cost 25 euro to use per person per day (quite pricy) but there was no way that was possible (If I'm paying 50 euros for me and my wife to access an area I want to see what I get).
at the pool area I asked for an espresso from their espresso machine at around 1PM. but that was not possible. they stopped using the espresso machine after 11AM and only served cheap instant coffee.
This hotel could be really great, it could be an amazing stay, instead it ended up being a mediocre stay at best

Great hotel, great location, nice room, walking distance to city sentrum, nice hotel employes, great parking and the hotel looked fantastic. Loved my stay at the hotel
4.0
Our hotel room had issues. Didn’t lock from inside. Property looked tired and played out. There is an outdated collateral system for towels for the beach and pool. The buffet was average at best. The Waterfront area was dirty with cigarettes and containers floating in the water. We really wanted to love this place, but left unhappy and would never Recommend anyone to stay. The only positive thing is that the staff was very nice, but I felt they were constricted and restricted within their roles. There are many other places to stay in the surrounding area and I would hope they step up their game.
2.0
The staff is rude : doesn't Say hello and respond when we Say it.
They give us only one room card for 3 adults in the room and refused to give another which created issues and inconfort.
During the breakfast, they are harcelling us to take the vessels and dont let us finish to get ouf breakfast in calm.
The swimming pool in picture used for promotion is billeable 25euros.
Overall i dont recommend the stay, for this Price we Can expect a better experience and services from the staff

Do not get sucked into the Instagram promotions for this hotel. It’s as though the hotel staff deliberately try to be as rude and unhelpful as possible!
The floor plan of the hotel is the worst I’ve ever seen not to mention the 1 elevator that can barely fit 4 people in it. Once you find the right one you’ll be waiting for a while!
The food is average at best although I didn’t get food poisoning so that’s a plus.
The music is so loud it’s impossible to have a conversation and the genre is either 2am club dance music or hip hop.
The roof top pool is accessible for €36 each.
Fair to say I wouldn’t go back to this hotel even if they paid me.
I usually don’t bother to leave reviews but this place just left me wanting to go home as soon as possible..

Great hotel with lots of facilities. Quite a walk from the centre of Serranda. Lots of elements have extra charges, which can be expensive if you want to use them.

This hotel really does have the potential to be 4* however it's not quite up to scratch.
Before I arrived I read a lot of reviews saying the staff were rude but this simply wasn't the case everyone was always polite.
The room it's self was very spacious and super clean. Couldn't fault it.
However the shower was cold. We complained about this 3 times to be told someone would come and fix it but they never did.
We went in may, when you book it says pools open in may. However they were not when we arrived. We asked and then they started to open them. But the area around the open outside pool was like a building site, broken tiles around which seemed very unsafe. The indoor pool was nice once they had heated it up lol.
Not all the bars they advertise were open. I understand mag is low season but they really should tell you not all the pools and bars will be open when you're booking.
I would recommend this hotel for a cheap clean room but don't have high hopes about the facilities they sell you.

It was the worst experience that we had in the whole trip.
We only stayed for two nights, I complained twice about the smell in the room, and nobody cares.
We left before, I contacted Expedia , i want a refund for all the other days i didn't stay there. I don't recommend this hotel to anyone. Very disappointed.

Service needs to improve big time. Location, view, rooms, hotel were awesome.

The only reason I’m giving 4 stars is because they wanted to charge us 25 euros per person for the infinity pool. They said it’s not included in the price even though it’s not mentioned anywhere on hotels.com. We were willing to pay and when we came back to the desk after we put our swim suits on I was told my son, who is 13, wasn’t allowed. Everything else about this hotel is amazing.
5.0
It was not during the season, however the hotel did amazing accommodationist for our visit. They even brought breakfast to the room when the kitchen was not open.
3.0
Liked beach access, children's pool, quiet, some of the staff great (but others need some training on customer service), room with small patio/garden.
Some facilities very poor, e.g. gym not only very badly equipped for a supposed 5* but some so old it was dangerous. Pools could do with modernisation.
4.0
The hotel is amazing But there was bad smell in the room if the smell not there I will give :10,

Expencive hotel for the standard it has. Very crowded everywhere. Dated property. Service good, clean rooms. Family oriented property, nothing for people looking for a quiet retreat. Pool area and beach so full you step on each other. Not worth the high price for me. Traveling with children maybe
5.0
It was great. The hotel is beautiful and front desk was great. They upgraded my room to a sea view. Private beach is great and 7th floor pool has amazing views of the sunset.
5.0
The property doesn't look much from the road but it is enormous inside and designed by some crazy designer - it looks awesome. Even the car park looks incredibly designed (go and look at it!!). Great sky bar with wonderful views, nice beach area, a few swimming pools on different levels - including the roof.

Amenities were amazing! Location was good. Hotel was awesome!!

The staff is horrible, a 5 star hotel should be on a 5 star hotel stamdard. Staff doesnt speak english very poorly, no help from the staff. They have an infinity pool but you have to pay 25 euros extra pr day. Only 23 people are allowed up there a day. That was the only thing that was worth about this hotel if you take that away its just a regular hotel, with poor service.
2.0
This hotel was not at all living up to the standards of a 4 star hotel. Our first room which were supposed to be a deluxe room, hardly had any furniture no windows and looked like it was put together in the last minute. It was a big challenge to get to change to another room and very unfriendly staff. Don’t pay 20 euros per person to go up to the infinity pool! First it doesn’t look like anything on the pictures, secondly it didn’t even look clean when we were there, also it’s very strange to pay extra for that. The breakfast was also below all possible standard and yet again with very unfriendly and not at all service minded staff.
1.0
The room and the staff were nice . When asked about accessing the top pool just to take one pic only they wanted 20 euro charge per person . I told them the only reason I booked this hotel was only for the pic in the top pool for my blog . I will never use this hotel again .in future is plenty of other hotel in saranda

Some great aspects to the hotel , great views etc. Stylish / quirky. Out of season so all pools etc shut. Some building works going on within the hotel as well as DEAFENING building works next door from 8am til 7pm every day with diggers and pneumatic drills. Absolutely ruined any potential quality of stay. I will seek a refund. Customer service poor in general - one or two staff pleasant / helpful , others rude. Breakfast often ran out of items. Tried to fob us off with two separate rooms due to a 'technical problem' with family room. We had to insist on interconnecting rooms which we got in the end.
5.0
Very good location, parking, staff, it is necessary that hotel provides a bottle of water in rooms
4.0
We had a great stay in Albania and we were very please with our choice of hotel! We opted for one of the premium rooms and it was faultless! The bed was comfy, the bathroom was clean, it looked as though it had only been decorated yesterday! The only reason for not having five stars all round is that due to us going in a quiet period, they were carrying out some maintenance on one of the many pools and some of the other facilities were not available. Over all, great hotel and very friendly/helpful staff!
