By far the best hostel experience i ever had. Very friendly and fun staff. Hostel is small, cozy and friendly environment. There are events most of the evenings. Facilities are nice as well. Very nice garden. breakfast and dinner is very good. And the price is super okay. If i am back in Tirana thats the place i will stay. I would definetly recommend.

The area was somewhat noisy quite late at night

Very hospitable and friendly receptionists, hostel is quite comfy with clean bathrooms, nicely decorated rooms for great value, and pretty good breakfast included

The staff couldn’t change the weather and adjust the temperature. Too hot!

I’ve been there 3 times. Doesn’t it say enough? I’m greeted by warm hugs (too warm for the sweltering summer heat but anyway), there are staff that get me, central location and free breakfast (not the package croissants bullshit it’s homemade stuff by nana) where you can link up with other travelers. AC keeps rooms cool throughout the day. Why would you want to stay anywhere else. Oscar the bear is still there and well. So thanks for that.

Jacob and the team were all so kind and welcoming! Really relaxed ambiance and great value

My bed didn't have a curtain whereas others did. The showers weren't particularly great, there needed to be more hooks and more privacy.

Amazing staff, loved the quiz and other activities put on. Great place to meet people with lots of areas to hang out in.

What’s there not to like? Free breakfast and family style dinner let you link up with other travelers. Friendly and helpful staff at your disposal, singing about how radio sucks balls. Close to everything—even a strip club (but you ain’t getting in if you are a lady. I asked!). By the way I can’t pick out my favorite staff member because I love them all, so they should all get a free beer. Except Jacob, since apparently he’s not a staff. This is my second time staying here and it was just as good. Extra points for taking good care of beloved Oscar bear (you can hug him. He gives good hugs). It’s a crazy fun place.

The showers were a bit small and some of them had no hooks for your clothes so it was tricky to shower without getting things wet.

Great location and super helpful staff (especially Jacob)! Nice clean dorms with good air conditioning plus a decent breakfast.

No complaints

The best hostel I have ever stayed at! Immediately booked for more days upon arrival after arriving and feeling right at home. The staff are so welcoming and eager to help out if you need it. Super fun, everyone I met there was very friendly and there were plenty of fun events to join in with. The vibes are really chill, easy going and the facilities were great with good beds, hot showers and a good kitchen for personal cooking (if you don't join in the delicious family dinner). Special shout out to Jacob, Ashley, Brenda, Zuzu and Renato for making me feel like one of the family! Made a lot of good friends and memories here, love you guys!!

No complaints at all.

Loved my stay here. Super friendly and helpful staff. The meals made in house were delicious and nutritious and really affordable. So many activities organised and went as a group to a local pastry shop which I highly recommend. I think it was called Le Bon. Close to the shops and fruit markets. Can easily get a bus close to the hostel. Lockers were very spacious and beds are comfortable and nice thick duvets. Showers and toilets were great but could be improved with more hooks to hang things. I cannot recommend this more!!

Best hostel I've been to in a while. Loads of effort put in to bringing people together to do dinners/activities etc. Lovely vibes

Super friendly staff, easy to meet other travelers, good location.

Nights can be sometimes loud, especially with karaoke nights. But it really wasn't a problem.

The staff are all amazing, but the cooks might be even better. The breakfast was ways a great start to the day. Showers and toilets were always avalible and a shot of raki costs 1 euro. They also seem to always organise events, in the two days we were there we saw a karaoke night, dinner party and pub quiz. It is a great place to socialise. I also saw a pretty cool lizard.

The only small complaint I could give is that the rooms are very cold if it’s not summer season, and if you happen to get cold very fast this might be an issue. Especially on the top bunks, it tends to be even colder. But pack warm and you’ll be fine.

What I liked most was: 1) the staff there - amazing, friendly, felt like hanging with family. They tried their best to make our stay feel magical. But also 2) sitting on the terrace upstairs in the morning, having a cup of coffee and chatting with other travellers was absolutely magical. Feels like you’re just chilling at home on a couch on the balcony, fresh air, blankets - can’t brag enough. All these aside, the activities were cute too, there was a quiz night and a social night with another hostel in the city. It was both very chill but also very entertaining at the same time.

I had a great time in this hostel. The staff is super friendly and they make you feel like home. My flight arrived late but they arranged a taxi for me and waited for a late check in (thank you Adrien). The room was comfy and espacious and I loved the terrace.

Would be nice if there was drinking water

Nice Hostel with good social atmosphere, good volunteers and nice comunal áreas with a good kitchen and comfortable beds. Nice location close to the centre as well.

Stayed in February 2025

The rooms were a bit cold as the building doesn’t have insulation. It will be no problem in any other seasons.

Fantastic staff who made me feel right at home. I will never forget about the jackbox game session. Good breakfast where people get connected and also very nice family dinner.

It's terribly cold! The hostel owner needs to come up with something. At least fix the air conditioners, which do not heat the second floor at all. Wi-Fi on the second floor is very poor.

Location, all amenities 10/10. The staff deserve all the stars because they do everything possible to make the guests comfortable. I felt at home. I only booked for one night, but ended up staying for another week. Hostel guests from different countries find it very easy to find interlocutors and travel companions. There is breakfast in the morning. In the evening you can buy dinner.

Great work by the entire hostel team; from the very first moment, you feel good there. The hostel is clean and has both indoor and outdoor spaces for meeting other travelers. Thank you!

Nothing I didn’t like

The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. The hostel was tidy and very comfortable. It had everything that I was looking for in a hostel :)

Didn't like how short my stay was

Jacob is a god amongst men. This hostel is the bee's knees.

Stayed in December 2024

A bit small size bathroom but can cope if you are not a XXX size. Perhaps a noise-curfew after 11pm or 12am?

Fantastic international atmosphere and excellent location in the city. A short 10min walk and you are in Skanderberg Sq. An good arrange of volunteers from over the world helping at the hostel. Available some free stuff if someone need it and even some evening left-over food and cake. Evening supper (normal and veggie) prepared by Diego ,at a small cost, was delicious. Thanks to Jacob, Diego and Kiki for nice conversations during my stay. Local breakfast-style in the morning. Quiet street and lower beds with curtains. Available luggage storage on the last day. Day trips are advertised in reception. Alternatively some guests decided to do activities in groups. Outside balcony and patio-terrace for late drinks if the weather is pleasant.

No place to put your stuff in the bathroom and no privacy there.

Jacob is great, comfortable bed, very social!

Great place to stay in Tirana. The staff is very welcoming and thoughtful. The hostel is so tidy and neat. The breakfast is amazing and lovely dinner is served at the hostel. I do recommend staying here.
