    The hotel has bad sound insulation, you can hear people and shower noises from other rooms.

    This is an older hotel but well kept and clean, right on the beach. Breakfast is in the hotel restaurant in a separate building on the beach, pleasant and pretty. Breakfast was good. We had dinner there as well and that was excellent and tasty.

    its directly on the street sh4 so sometimes it was very loud and there were also constructions works nearby that was the reason why it was so cheap - well for us it was okay during the day we went away from the hotel because of the noise. they didnt clean the room for three days so we werent happy with the cleaning.

    First of all: we had a great time and the stuff was very friendly and helping, even if they didnt spoke much english. the breakfast was very good and also the location of the hotel. there are a lot of restaurants nearby and there is a bus station in front of the hotel.

    Duhej te ishte e theksuar se 'Hotel Benilva" ishte ne renovim e siper dhe hoteli qe kisha prenotuar ishte thjesht nje shtojce qe nuk ngjante fare me ate qe une dikur kam frekuentuar Pastertia linte per te deshiruar Mungonte ekipi per mirembajtje Shikonim kuzhinjeren dhe kamarierin qe 'ne kohe te lire " vinin te pastronin dhomat... (E pakuptueshme)

    Dikur 'Hotel Benilva" Ka pas traditë dhe jam ndar shume e kenaqur Tani qe ishte Benilva 2 nuk ngjante fare E vetmja gje e mire ishte miresjellja e pronareve dhe punonjesve gjithashtu

    Ac/heater didn’t work, so temperature in room was around 15celsius. We tried to told that to owner when we left, just to let them know, so they can fix it before temperatures will rise too hot, but the old lady just told we didn’t know how to use it (we have similar at home).

    Roim was ok size

    I booked hotel for a restful holiday which I have once per year. On a website it was stated some construction work will finish end of May 2023. When we arrived there was construction work next to the hotel full on. I believe they are just building next Benilva. From 7.30 am till 3pm drilling, banging, terrible noise. One day concrite arrived and terrible smell was even on a beach. The fumes from old diesel car were spreading that it was hard to breath. If you don't want to have ruined holiday don't bother to come for at least one year. When I have complained I was offered refund if I leave room, but in the middle of season there was nowhere to go. I'm quite shock how can you not inform customers that construction is still fully going on. We have paid 83 Euro per night stay there for 8 nights, which is not cheap. Also pictures are staged and in reality everything looks different. Breakfast first day was even ok, next day worst and worst. How can you fry sausage with plastic foil on, it is beyond me. Room was not cleaned through 8 nights, it was only provided with clean towels. Mosquitoes nets were in a window but you couldn't close them properly hence loats of bites.

    Sea, sunbeds and nice weather. Man who was managing sunbeds was trying to keep beach clean all the time, which I really appreciate. Thank you.

    The staff doesnt speak english, no cold water in the room so the toilet didnt work, food is awful, you cant pay by card and so I ended up paying 8 euros too much because they didnt have change. Even the taxi that they called when we left they managed to give a wrong adresse so we ended up in a wrong place. Stay away this a scam big time.

    Excellent hotel and location, amazing view at the sea, friendly staff, clean and tidy, rooms are cleaned every day, delicious breakfast, there is a hotel under construction next door, but there was not a single moment of noise or any disturbance because of it, all praise for Hotel Benilva, would reommend it to everyone. I will definetly be coming here again

    We were satisfied. Not much to not like beside the little construction they got going on but it was manageable.

    The breakfast was more then enough with a variety to satisfy you. Great location. I definitely will refer family and friends to stay there. We will be going back again to this hotel on our next visit to Albania.
