Reviews of 'Gurra Family' Guesthouse

Very modern, nice and clean apartment with 2 floors. Comfortable. Friendly staff!

I think there could be more space to hang cloths and planks for example to put stuff

The stuff, the place, the food

The stairs to second floor, no elevator.

Location, staff

Breakfast a little bit poor with no variety

Such a lovely stay here. The staff were amazing and all work so hard. The location and rooms were so lovely. 5 minute walk from the bus drop off.

Nothing

Highly recommend. Lovely place, lovely people. Everything was clean, good breakfast. Very comfortable room for a family with children. The jacuzzi is a bonus and the restaurant on site is really good.

We stayed at gurra family and felt right at home. Very nice rooms, good food (breakfast and dinner) and welcoming staff.

The location was amazing and the restaurant was really good

The bathroom did not smell so good

Location was great if your walking the valbonë-theth hike. The room was super nice with a cozy balcony. The room and hotel in general, was very clean. We had dinner there which was very nice and tasty. Breakfast was also good. Traditional Albanian breakfast which we have eaten in every city , but in a buffet style, which was the first time we had. This was especially nice since you then can choose how much you want of the different «dishes». The staff was also great, helped us with booking taxi back to shköder/tiranë. Very service minded and entertaining.

Nothing really bad about the guest house. It’s a bit more pricey than the other accommodations we have had in Albania, also the food/drinks was more pricey. However, I think that’s more of a general trait about theth rather then Gurra family guesthouse. We waited 1h past time for the minibus that’s was going to take us to shköder in order to get to Tiranë. I think this is also not the accommodations fault, but more a general trait for Albanian culture, that they’re not very timely.

Recently renovated, our room was lovely. Easy parking outside and great location in the village.

The only negative was that service at dinner was a little chaotic. We were told the kitchen was very busy and there would be a bit of a wait which in itself isn’t a problem as they were very honest. Unfortunately it meant that all the dishes came out eventually except one of the mains that we had ordered which came out an hour later.

Great central location in middle of Theth (which you realise when you get there is a huge positive!). Has a lovely restaurant which is reasonably priced and gives huge portions with friendly staff. Would recommend the potatoes with pana, which is like a melted cheese sauce. It is very near to where the bus from Shkoder drops you off and also near to the two Mini Markets and the ATM if you need any supplies, as well as other bars and restaurants. Only a 10 minute walk to the church, the start of the Grunas Waterfall trail and the start of the Theth to Valbona trek as well. There are taxis just outside who can take you most of the way to the Blue Eye for €5 per person if you don't fancy the 3 hour walk each way. Staff were very accommodating and able to give information about local things to do and could make a packed lunch for trekking if you were unable to make breakfast (which starts at 07:30 for those planning to go over the Valbona pass). Bed was super comfy and had lovely decor and a nice waterfall shower in the room. It is also the only place we could find in Theth that had AC in the room which is essential in the summer months! Would highly recommend (and would not consider staying outside of the centre of Theth now, given how convenient it is!).

Slightly dim lighting in the room (but we were barely in it!)

Gurra Family Guesthouse was very comfortable and beautifully renovated – cozy, clean, and welcoming. The staff were kind and helpful, and the breakfast was delicious. It’s the perfect spot for one or two nights in Theth. Would definitely recommend it for a short, relaxing stay in the mountains.

Loved the food!! The staff are professional and very helpful! Loved every part of the stay

The hosts were very friendly. The room and bathroom were incredible, and the bed was very comfortable. The included breakfast was quite good and complete. Also a great place to dinner. The location is pretty good.

The bathroom window was missing curtains, the shower pressure was good but not consistent, and there was a sewage smell in some areas.

Really nice room in cracking location

The last bit of road to property and the car park

Centrally located in Theth with very good restaurant on site, breakfasts included provided barista made coffee and large spread, we ate dinner at the restaurant which was delicious and well priced. The room was comfortable with air-conditioning. Staff were helpful and nice during our stay.

Power occasionally would trip, sounds like this might be a Theth wide issue though.
