    Good location, not far from the center. Nice to see that old houses are still used instead of being torn down. Only minor point for me, there's a lot of light coming in via the door and the small rooftop windows.

    We have no negatives to report.

    We loved the historical significance of the property and the location. It was easy walking distance to the old city. Free parking is nearby.

    We stayed here for 2 nights. Edward the owner was super nice and made sure we stay comfortably. At night it was cold but thankfully the heating system is very efficient and kept room warm. The location is perfect. We can walk to main town in 5 minutes. The breakfast they serve is coffee, eggs, bread and sausage. It was simple and delicious. We love our stay. Highly recommended.

    Would be nice to get a kettle for the kitchen :)

    The way the property is styled - exactly like the pictures show ❤️ We were also offered a guide to show us around the city (extra fee), so now I can also recommend Bruno, as we really enjoyed his storytelling. Short walking distance to a free, public car park Kitchen access

    Heritage, very beautiful and historic. There were some remains of a well, lots of info about the building and the town. Staff were fantastic, breakfast was very good and there was a little kitten!

    The kitchen was dirty. If you have small kids, as we do, the stairs to the 1st floor was really steep. but our 5 year old managed fine, but need to help our 2,5 year old, and wouldn't let her take them by her self. And the roof terrace has a bit of too big openings to your liking for the small kids, but there was enough pallet furniture's to fence of these places, so it wasn't a problem. Just to have in mind if booking with small children, else no worries :)

    it was a great location, and the best rooftop terrace, where we sat every night. The house was the oldest in the area, and has this museum feel to it, old and rustic, with a nice atmosphere. There came a sweet lady every morning and made us breakfast, which was so nice. The host was friendly and helpful. and checkin to see if everything was good. the house was nice walk distance to everything. We would defiantly stay here again.

    The communal kitchen wasn't the cleanest, but I just put my stuff in a plastic bag in the fridge.

    Great location with nearby free public parking. Nice rooftop terrace to enjoy your drinks in the evening and the breakfast in the morning. Very cosy 'lobby'.

    There was a leak in our bathroom sink, nothing major, but can be slippery.

    The building is historical and it was used in a movie. It is a very good location, close to the main attractions. Our bedroom was spacious and comfortable. The terrace has a nice view and the breakfast is served there, traditional coffee and a traditional albanian breakfast (eggs, bread tomato, cucumber, olives, white cheese). Thank you for an amazing stay.

    Diana, Alkissia, and Elio were very accommodating and welcoming. Diana’s breakfasts left nothing undesired, and it was the perfect location. The rooms were spotless and the decor was wonderful. Would absolutely come back, if anything to see Kiki (the resident kitten!) :)

    This ancient structure has been beautifully renovated. The staff are incredibly helpful, and the homely touch throughout the property is wonderful. I loved the way they treat guests.

    This modest, rugged and raw stonehouse, with some touches of modernisation is a place to be in the way of life as it used to be lived. Although I like the contemporary places this house got me charmed up. The host and staff is dedicated and happy to help from accommodation to city walks and tours. They recommended a swimming gorge in Sinec, thank you guys. Blessings and all the best.

    The hotel is located in a beautiful part of the old town. Streets are covered in cobblestone and it makes you feel like you're in Italy. The staff was very welcoming and very attentive. We felt like we were literally at someone's private home. I would like to thank the owner and staff once again, for making our short stay so pleasant. We will be back ;)

    In a beautiful neighbourhood. The premise feels like a museum with nice collection of antiques. Host serves an amazing local breakfast. It has all the promised amenities and an amazing terrace to watch sunset over the beautiful ottoman town! Parking was provided in a premise that can be reached in a few minutes walk.
