    Many mosquitoes. The top bunks are not comfy. Ran out of drinking water and didn't refill fit half a day. The kitchen doesn't have enough pots and pans even when the place wasn't full.

    Friendly staff. There's a nice rooftop bar to relax in.

    I tried to have a shower and the water never warmed up, but I was told by another guest that there’s a shower on the terrace that has got water. The location is not perfect but i enjoyed getting my steps in.

    Loved the staff, they’re so nice and accommodating! Nice to have a living room to do laptop work in. The terrace is nice to do work on too! I had such great sleeps here. It was sooo quiet.

    It wasn’t social when I was staying, if they have an English speaking volunteer working there I think could have a better feeling with bbq and rooftop games . No breakfast or towel

    Location is top of the hill, so I'm the hot day it needs good sport to walk up there, or take a taxi. But that's natural minus of nice location...

    Location is nice, at good Vollga area. Rooms has air-condition is good plus in the summer! Lots of space in public areas and nice roofbar, free coffee in the morning!

    Things were stolen from the fridge in the kitchen, pissed me off, not the hostels fault, a couple of long term guests, who don't clean their mess up means the kitchen gets messy quickly.. Some guests can really make the place go down hill quickly If the owners put CCTV in the kitchen then the problem would stop quickly.

    Good location, good facilities, clean, comfortable, I would definitely stay here again. Potentially a great hostel

    Nothing. Everything was great and if there was a problem the staff would solve it immediately

    My staying at top view was very pleasant. I stayed in a female shared dorm. There is air conditioner in the room, the bed was comfortable and the private bathroom was clean. There are two kitchen in the hostel which is a good alternative if you want to skip restaurants or just store some food on the fridge. The location of the hostel is more than appropriate, you can be in the avenue in just a few minutes by walk where you can find restaurants, stores, atm and supermarkets and you will also be very close to the beach. The staff was really kind and they’re always willing to help as well as the people that lives around the area. I had some pleasant time (every day) at the rooftop which was my favorite part of the hostel. I would recommend to have some breakfast while enjoying the view or maybe head over for a drink during the night. If you bring a positive vibe and a polite attitude you would definitely have a pleasant holiday and you will meet really nice people :) I would visit once again next time I’m in Dürres.

    Loose outlet in dorm A, bed 9 drove me a bit crazy but I forgot to say anything - had to support the charger from the bottom for it to work. A lot of mosquitoes (I know, there's not a lot to do about it but there could've been an electric mosquito catcher in the common room). A/C although set to 25C felt a bit cold (but I got an extra warm blanket free of charge so not a huge issue), there was a bit of juggling between toilets (some didn't have soap at the moment, some didn't have toilet paper and you had to basically go to different ones every second time) and the frying pans weren't really that non-stick 😅

    Comfortable, loved the privacy blanket besides the bed (although the separation from beds in front, in the back and on top could be better). Cozy common room, spacious rooftop, small gym (but huge plus that there's even a gym), great location and awesome hosts. Felt clean and tidy. Lots of places for hanging wet clothes

    The staff seems a bit unsocial and the vibe in the hostel was weird, too. It seems like a dead hostel. There is barley any communication ongoing (there were not many guests and it was not main season to be honest). As there were some constructions ongoing it was quite messy in the check in area and other areas.

    The location is great, so close to the sea. Beds are comfy. It has a nice rooftop.

    As far as the premises are concerned, the bedroom is fine, but it is quite stuffy inside. There is kitchen, but there are barely any utensils. The bathroom is located upstairs. No soap provided whatsoever.

    The hostel is in a calm area in the city center. There is a grocery store, a bakery, and a vegetable's store just 3 min away. This is a family hostel, and the owners are really friendly and helpful. The rooftop offers a great view though. Price/value ratio - good! Can recommend it for 1-2 days.
