This is something I discussed with Gino: we booked two superior double rooms with sea view. Sea View is when you open the curtains and you don't have to make the effort to actually see the sea. When the sea takes up less than 10% of the view, my friend it's not a sea view. For him what you see in the pics I uploaded means sea view (pics taken from our windows in rooms 301 and 303, so jump to your own conclusions) -- Then he said that only the apartments had the sea view I was talking about. This is not just a disagreement on what sea view is or is not. You can advised whatever you want and then mislead clients. However, if you advertised these rooms as "with partial or side sea view" I bet you'd get more satisfied clients. Apart from this issue, we enjoyed staying at this hotel for 2 nights and that's why I give 7/10. With a sea view, the score would be higher. Sorry, I had to take some points out as sea view was a big part of this booking.

Nice hotel half block away from the beach but no buildings in between. The rooms are spacious and comfy. Toilet also good side, shower a bit too small though, but ok. Staff, in particular Gino was very helpful giving us a hand to bring suitcases to second floor. When I asked him for an extra pillow he sorted it out right away. When we asked for a place to put air to the tyre, he pointed us to the right direction. Breakfast was better than other hotels in Albania: fried&boild eggs, sausages in chunks, bread, jam, ham, cheese, cream&choco croissants, cereales and milk. Coffe, tea and juices. When it come to fruits, we only had melon and watermelon but realy juicy and tasty.

No elevator but most don’t unless it’s a big highrise. And staff carried our luggage to the room so hey no need to worry.

Location it’s very good near beach, restaurants and grocery markets and a local bus line.

Despite to the fact that on the booking confirmation is stated that the hotel accept card payments (and the same information can be found on hotel page) upon the arrival we had an unpleasant surprise when the receptionist refused us card payment informing that they accept only cash payment in albanian currency. When I tried to show him that on the booking confirmation is stated that the hotel accept card payments the receptionist was arrogant and impertinent saying that the hotel doesn't have anything to do with informations writen on booking.com and if we don't pay cash we are free to go anywhere else. After sterile discussions wit the receptionist we manged to made the cash payment in euro but the surprises goes on - the receptonist refused to give us a receipt as payment proof giving only an invoice. Albania is a beautiful welcoming country ... pity that people like this receptionist spoils the image of the country.

- very close to the beach - free private parking in the inner courtyard

The bathroom should benefit from some improvements as the shower is too small and the toilet cover looks oldie

The room was nice and the hotel was close to the beach

All was fine. Nothing negative to say!

The breakfast was amazing! So much food! Also location is perfect and the parking space was a plus since we were traveling by car.

Stayed in September 2023

Furniture and TV set are obsolete (sea view apartments only). Noise from the street is quite annoying in the night (bedroom at sea view apartments, the other rooms are oriented to the inner yard.

Best location in Vlorë. Staff is allways attentive to customer requests (special thanks to Olti😊). Private parking is a big advantage, the area is crowded and finding a parking place is a challenge. Good breakfast. Very close to the hotel there are free and very affordable private sand beaches and the sea entrance is very smooth. A lot of variety of restaurants nearby.

Verry big bathroom but small shower and the appliances outdated. Could use a renivation.

Big apartment, hotel parking(it's a must in Albania!) In the middle of Vlore, next to the beach!

Small hotel located close to the boulevard with all restaurants and bars. Nice beach. Vlorë is a booming city. Much better in my option than Sarandë. The owner was very helpful. Great breakfast!

There’s a huge building site across the road, full of water. Booking.com’s confirmation said the hotel accepts bank cards. It doesn’t - it accepts cash only. (This is Booking.com’s error, not the hotel’s.) The beach is full of rubbish and with storm run-off from two days before you’d be mad to think of swimming there. The building is aged and our bedroom/bathroom were dated. Ripe for demolition and replacement. I bought canned/bottled drinks from the bar and the state of chiller cabinet was disgusting - obviously no one cares.

Not much, in truth.

305 had a vomit smell. Although they sent staff to clean it Vomit does NOT go away. The head beds had fabrics and rugs keep the smell. The bathroom smelled nonstop sewage. The whole place had ants from every corner. One of the twin beds was so uncomfortable tossing around metal springs. You can’t sleep. The door of the room didn’t close, the power went off 5 times. One of the lights on the ceiling didn’t shut down completely so we slept with the light on like in a hospital room. The cleanliness of the room and bathroom was lacking and it has been years that the cleaning and updates are not done properly. The breakfast was another nightmare. The stairs are very slippery marble which is a safety concern. Red Flag. I slipped but lucky I got my self after a few steps down..Please save your self and go somewhere else. I will NEVER step there again. Drive a bit further and get a decent clean place.

The location but never worth it, this place was surrounded with building, comstructions 24/7 and it was an enormous dust. Plus it was very filthy.

The hosts were incredibly welcoming and kind to everyone, very helpful with everything as well. The rooms were clean, everything was new, mattress was soft, breakfast was diverse and delicious (both savoury and sweet), the view was amazing since we could see both the mountain and the sea and it was very well located (close to multiple restaurants and to the public transport).

You CAN'T pay by card here. The shower cabin was really small, so I literally couldn't take a shower. No bath accessories provided.

Friendly staff, comfy bed, filling breakfast.
