Good wifi connection, central hostel, close to many restaurants and bars. The owner Adriano is a great person and will do all possible to make your trip pleasant, although he speaks better italian than English, he will prepare breakfast for you in the morning, also with vegan option. My stay was pleasant and I will return. The room is nice with big lockers, my advice is to close all windows and turn on air conditioner to reduce street noise in the evening.

The place needs a deep clean.

The owner is the strong point of this property. Staying here felt like being part of a big family. Good location, four or five minutes from the city center.. Great breakfast!

The hostel is very suitable for a person to stay overnight, the owner adriano is very friendly and help me a lot. He introduced me to some local restaurants which are very suitable for me and good value for money. He made breakfast for us every day and it’s just a very humane hostel. The location is very good and although the facilities are a little outdated buy the price of accommodation is very low for Tirana. If you're not as picky as I am, then stay here for a couple of nights. There are also room reserved for ladies only.

The staff are lovely people. Each one of them went out of their way to advise and help with planning the next day and even arranged for me to get a ride from Tirana to Shkodra. Guys, thanks for everything ❣️

Owner is super nice. He made breakfast for us everyday which is sooooo delicious especially the homemade gem. I feel bad that he even insisted to helped us do the dishes, I think it’s ok to let the guests do the dishes. he is soooo so kind. Thank really appreciate everything and his hospitality. I have a really good time here, it’s definitely super good value.

The room I stayed in is on the basement, you could hear noise from outside, but this was not a problem for me, it was ok. There was a closet in the room, only one side with a key, there were no lockers to put our belongings

I really like this place specially after the first night. I was lucky to have a good room mate as beds are kind of close with no division, so no privacy. It was really good. Breakfast done and served by the owner, a really nice friendly person. Breakfast was delicious. There is a lady that comes and cleans daily.

I had always chosen this hostel but house was full this time and I found the dorm very messy with very noisy guests when I arrived. The charm and the friendliness had gone. Sadly I had to find another hostel for my second night. No longer friendly as it used to be as i was told to leave my seat as soon as i took my last bite of breakfast because NEXT person coming but nobody was waiting. I found it unpleasant for this first and last time.

The hostel is super well located. It is simple but has everything one might need for a short staying in Tirana. Besides, the staff is super helpful and friendly. The breakfast is great!

Stayed in September 2024

The hostel is very close to the center of Tirana, actually in the center;-). Mr.Owner has a big heart and prepares a super rich breakfast (the option I had was not for vegans). Also he helps guests navigating thru Albania...not to forget Klara the Czech girl at the reception. All perfect in this hostel with minor details like one room a bit busy close to the street etc. But overall it is about the atmosphere, guests you might meet - and Tufina has it all!

The cooked breakfast prepared by Andreo the host is exceptional. Like an Albanian "full english" at home in the UK. You do not need to eat again for a long time! The hostel has a fully equipped kitchen clean showers and comfy beds. It is a short walk from the Airoport bus stop and easy to find. Clara the volunteer was very nice and helpful. Nice social atmosphere. If you are a smoker you will need to smoke outside on the street. I stayed here when I returned from Kosovo and would stay again if I come back some day!
