It only has three bathrooms to shower so we sometimes had to wait a bit.

The hostel had a very nice atmosphere and the staff and guests were very nice. We had a good time there.

What makes this hostel special is the owner samir. He goes out and beyond to make sure that you have everything that you need. The rooms are clean and the internet is fast if you work remotely. I totally recommend this place.

There are still things that could be added in the terrace, since the hostel was expanded recently it seems, and some guests follow rules better than the others, but that's somewhat to be expected i guess?

I really like this place. It has friendly atmosphere and Saimir, the host does his best to make everyone feel. I also want to mention the large terrace, where you can catch some amazing sunsets in the summer. Also, the kitchen(s) has gotten even better and has got everything you need, even if you were a master chef (which I'm not yet). I have seen quite a few hostels in Tirana, but Topo and Saimir go beyond anyone when it comes to fulfilling guest needs. Also, the price is great, especially here on Booking. It was not my my first time here and it wont be the last.

Really nice facilities. Has everything a traveller needs to setup to explore. Price is fantastic and it’s only a little bit out of the city centre so fine to walk and explore. Host is a great guy who is extremely hospitable and gave me plenty of advice to enjoy my stay here. Was also a great location to arrange tours to other parts of Albania, Kosovo & North Macedonia

The hostel was easy to find. Host was super helpful and so accommodating. The hostel has everything you need and more. There’s so many cafes and bakery’s close by. It’s a short walk to the city or theres bus stops close by. Really enjoyed our stay!!!

All was good. I would probably improve the cleaning and dryness of the shower/toilet.

The place is very quiet, you can just relax even if you are sharing space with more people. Also the owner is a really nice guy who is willing to help you with anything you need. It was nice to share some time with him, and he also brought a traditional Albanian drink which was very similar to one I use to drink in Colombia :) The best thing is that I could enter my heavi loaded bicycle to keep it in a safe place, thanks for that!

Amazing hospitality, being received like family, in a comfortable, clean, quiet place. Just minutes after booking, the owner, Samir, responded immediately to my concerns about late arrival and reassured me, with easy and clear instructions.. I arrived around midnight. I appreciated a lot the particular care put by Samir to be quiet in order not to disturb the guests already sleeping. Check-in was quick and easy. I appreciate there were no lectures on a long list of house rules with attached scaring penalties in case of no compliance. He said there is one house rule: use common sense 😂 Room clean, bed comfortable, very quiet I had a great sleep. The big roof top terrace is gorgeous for me, I enjoyed the sunny day there. I would come back to this hostel just to enjoy having a meal there.

Very comfy bed and an amazing manager. The self check-in was very simple. Walking distance from city center. Would definitely stay again

Stayed in April 2025

The hostel is difficult to find because is not visible on the main road and there is a little stickers on a side of a building.

The hostel is walking distance to the centre. The owner and the guy that lives there are friendly and helpful.

Staying at this hostel was like finding a home away from home. The atmosphere was welcoming from the moment I walked in, and the owner was super friendly and eager to help, going out of his way to make my stay exceptional. I felt quiet and safe there. The Wi-Fi reception was strong throughout the hostel, so I could work on my laptop without any issues. The common area with a terrace upstairs is another lovely place to relax, whether you’re working, cooking, or chatting with other guests. The room was cozy and clean, with free lockers for personal belongings. I was a little unsure about the shared bathrooms at first, but there were two of them, and they were always spotless and well-maintained, with plenty of hot water. It was actually much easier and more private than I expected! Towels, kitchen facilities, and even slippers are provided. The location is another bonus. It’s close to the city center but in a quiet area that allows for peaceful sleep. Everything you need (shops, pharmacies, fruit markets, cafes, and bakeries) was just a few minutes' walk away. I would absolutely stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a warm, welcoming place to stay!
