    The hosts are so gentle and helpful. The rooms are very cozy, clean, with nice views from the valley and they make you feel like home. It is located in a calm street, but also close to local restaurants. We recommend it 100%!

    Everything was good! ☺️

    Andreas and Anila are a wonderful couple and welcomed us warmly! The room was very clean, with traditional furniture and a fantastic view of the village. Also very close on foot to the old city center. The breakfast was tasty and more than enough for the four of us! The available parking place is really very helpful as it is very difficult to park at the narrow roads. We had a wonderful time here!

    Beautiful rooms with lovely shaded sitting out area. Air con in rooms much welcomed! Lovely hosts who were very kind. Incredible breakfast - more than welcome could possibly eat. Location close to castle and bazaar with restaurants only a few meters away. New road means car access is dead easy and gated parking is great. Could ask for more.

    Short but steap and narrow road to house with cobble stones, but still manageble.

    Great breakfast and really friendly family. Close to Girocaster castle, old town and Ali Pasha Bridge Parking at house was great.

    As others mentioned it is close from old bazar and castle but the way there and back is somewhat steep so that would need to be considered if someone was mobility issues.

    Everything amazing, breakfast is the best, very fulfilling and delicious. The family are very lovely and helpful. I recommend and would love to go back

    Nothing, everything was great.

    Lovely comfortable room in a historic building. Yuri and his wife were really friendly and even lent me a hoodie for our stay as Gjirokastër was a little chilly. They also picked us up from the bus station as we arrived late in the afternoon, but it's easy to get the town bus up to Dunavat which runs every 30 minutes. Yuri Guest House is located just above the castle where there's a cluster of five restaurants on your doorstep. Last, but definitely not least, the breakfast was amazing - eggs, bread, cheese, tomato, cucumber, petula (small doughnuts), jam and fruit. Enough to last the whole day! We would definitely choose to stay at Yuri's again.

    This old converted property is lovely. The owners are very friendly and go it of their way to help. The property is up near the Castle and old bridge. It’s just a few minutes walk down to the bazaar. The room is very comfortable and clean. The breakfast is amazing. There is a local bus up but we didn’t find how to use it.

    They picked us up and they dropped us in the station, which is quite far from the accommodation and the old town. Good location. The house is in a quiet street so it's a good place for people who have trouble sleeping 😃 Nice breakfast freshly made.
