Nice hostel! Good location(easy access) and you don't need taxi. ・How to get to the hostel when i traveling. Bus station is Terminali i Autobusëve Juglindje - Southeastern Albania Regional Bus Terminal(You can search tirana bus route like exparts albania).To make sure to get on the bus,i recommend that you need to arrive 30 minutes ago of departure.Despite of winter,many buses is full.When you get off the bus in central,go to public bus stop(Google map around 41.1115743, 20.0829431).There are few people who are waiting bus.When i traveling,the bus is blue and not big.But I recommend you need to ask the bus is going to area of hostel using by map or translate.I think that you can get off on the street where is near Shkolla Sulë Domi,But I made a mistake what i got off nearest gus station because i don't understand Albanian language. ・How to get to tirane when i traveling. You can get on the same bus around the hostel.Get off in front of castle and go to around sport palace(41.1114884, 20.0785778).It takes 5 mim by walking.Normally,you can see few buses.I recommend you need to ask destination before get on the bus.When you arrive in the southern tirana bus terminal,get on the bus in front of tirane university of economics.The bus which i got on,stopped at main square near Airport bus stop(you can search airport bus stop on Google map).So you can go to airport without staying Tirana accommodation. ※You need to search latest information.

So quiet. Perfect place to relax after a hectic day in Tirana. The garden is awesome and the included brekkie is yummy. The chaps who were staying here were cool too.

Molto bello nel verde seppur in città. Veramente tenuto bene , camere pulite, asciugamani puliti e colazione inclusa nel prezzo. La proprietaria davvero molto gentile ci ha accolto con grande entusiasmo e positività x un po’ fuori la città, perciò attenzione quando rientrate perché la sera è buio. Posto auto incluso! Assolutamebte si!

I felt at home at this nice rural hostel. It was quiet and the chicken on the lush garden give the place a great ambience. The owner is very hospitable and although she speaks just a few words English, there was no lack of understanding. Her son Eduard though speaks fluently English, French, Italian and Spanish and was very interesting to speak to, giving me and the other guests a wealth of info on Albanian cuisine. And his plum raki is great!

Good value for the money! Breakfast is included too. The bed is comfortable and it's pretty clean. Wifi is fast. You can catch the bus to center some steps away from the hostel. The lady owner doesn't speak too much English but she is friendly and will try to answer any questions. I arrived late & it was difficult to find because it was really dark. I think it will be better if they have a lit sign and have some light outside the house for at night was almost pitch dark.

Love this place. Owner was so lovely. She made sure I was comfortable. Checked up on me a few times. I came during the cold season and she wanted me to be warm. Coddled me like I was one of her own. Place is cold during the night, but that's common in Albania. There's a gas heater but you can't keep it on all night due to CO2. Many hostels doesn't have heaters or insulation. Homemade breakfast and very filling. This place is worth more than the price I paid for.

  • Matthias Puff

Hello Fatima, I really love your hostel. Your breakfast is awesome. Scrambled egg, coffee, jam, cheese, self-made bread, wow! You are doing a great job. So happy that you helped me to fix my hurting leg (with onion) and also fixed my leather bike clothes. Thank you that you allowed me to clean my motor bike and also park it inside. Your garden is also so nice. ***** 5 Stars ***** Best regards Matthias P.S. I hope I will have a chance to come back!

Zostaliśmy na noc w namiocie, ogród jest duży, co daje możliwość wyboru miejsca na rozbicie. Rano śniadanko, owocki z ogrodu. Gospodyni się kręci i stara we wszystkim pomóc :) można zostawić plecaki i iść zwiedzić miasto. Super miejsce, bardzo polecam!

This is a very nice hostel. Dorm and private rooms are fine, no air con tho. But the very best is the nice lady who runs the place. Hostel is basically placed in her garden with nice fruits and lovely chicken. we really enjoyed our stay. Btw. Bus stop is just 100m away if u worry about getting to town center.

Eduart and his mum Fatima were the most amazing hosts! This place is basically like you’re staying at their home - they make you feel so welcome!! It’s super tiny and in a random alley but don’t let that scare you off. One of the best experiences I had in Albania were spending time with both of them! We went to hot springs and then out for drinks. His mum even walked me almost a mile to show me a good restaurant! Just the best!!

  • mountainmandg

The owner is so soft spoken and generous. The breakfast is amazing. The fruit trees in the complex add value to the amazing ambience of the place. Quite & serene with birds chirping.

Have de verdure et de tranquillité très proche de la ville. Nous avons pu échanger avec beaucoup des personnes présentes, planter la tente (tout était plein on n'a pas réservé, on peut se mettre en mode camping), manger un super petit déj... bref, c'était super ! Douche et toilettes très propres, petite cuisine, ombragé. PS : Merci Édouard de nous avoir conseillé sur la route, peu fréquentée et magnifique

  • Silas Lauridsen

Det her er bare et super fint sted! Det ligger med centrum i gåafstand og miljøet der er er helt vildt afslappende. Der er hængekøjer og sofaer man kan hygge i udenfor, og der er intet dårligt at sige om sovestedet. Folkene der er helt vildt flinke, og det er næsten lige ved at det er værd at tage til byen bare for at opleve hostelet. Dét billigste i området og så går rygtet at morgenmaden er helt vildt lækker!

Simple and basic room & beds but great atmosphere and wonder quiet garden where chickens roam around. There is a simple kitchen you can use. Nice little field to put up your tent. The hostel Fatime is a wonderful and very friendly lady who makes you the best breakfast all with fresh and local products. One of the nicest places in Albania I’ve stayed in.

  • Louise Strang

We actually didn't stay the night but the host was lovely and let us sit in the garden under a shelter as it was raining. While we waited for a lift she even made us a lovely fruit tea. (We passed through hoping for a double room but it was already booked) Beautiful garden with lots of sheltered spaces and chill out, shared spaces

  • Lewis Mindy

A wonderful hostel away from the centre but on a bus route and close to a couple of shops and bars. Well signed from the main road. Chickens and a goat are your neighbours in the garden of Fatima's and her family's house. I have been made to feel very welcome and very much at home. Delicious breakfast, hot water, outdoor kitchen.

  • Maël OUVRIER-BUFFET

We spend 2 nights in the hostel and we felt in love with the place and the owner. We felt at home immediately. Fatima is such a nice person, she took care of us. If you want to have a human experience we recommend this place. The room is comfortable we had everything we needed. Thank you Fatima and Eduart !

Super accueil de Fatima, c’était un rayon de soleil, soucieuse de notre bien être. La chambre correspondait à nos attentes c’était confortable et calme. Le petit déjeuné était complet et on s’est régalé ! Rapport qualité prix imbattable en Albanie.

  • Jędrzej Sowiński

Spędziłem jedną noc. Nie było problemu z przechowaniem roweru w pokoju. Gospodyni bardzo uprzejma i życzliwa. Śniadanie bardzo smaczne. Jeśli będę miał okazję-wrócę.
