Among the facilities at this property are a shared kitchen and luggage storage space, along with free WiFi throughout the property. The hostel features family rooms.

Location, Location, Location ! This new & clean hostel is right in the heart of the trendy part of Tirana - with all the nice cafes, bars, affordable restos & groceries within a few minutes of walking. The place is also pretty close to the Tirana bus station - A factor V important to me as a backpacker ! The staff is very helpful in guiding about the city & its happenings. The Skanderbeg square is a straight leisurely stroll on the main boulevard from the hostel - that I particularly enjoyed. En plus, their morning breakfast is a star grade hotel affair that is uncommon to be found in a hostel - variety of delicious sandwiches, pistachio filled croissants or make your own butter & jam sandwich, abundant tea & coffee - don't miss it in the morning ! I would like to come back soon here.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.

    Very basic, but comfortable enough. Air con/heating worked well. The place seemed very secure too. Great for a budget stay though - it worked out at EUR10 per person per night!! That's as cheap as a hostel, but you have the place to yourselves.

    The hosts were so lovely and accommodating, nothing was too much trouble. Such a great location too, you couldn't get more central. Excellent value for money, and the place itself was by far the best hostel I've stayed in so far - and I've stayed in many. Cannot fault my stay whatsoever and when I come back to Tirana I'll definitely be back. Highly recommend.

    Great location in centre of Tirana, walking distance to everything good in the city. Clean. Safe. Good communication with host. 3euro for 24hr parking around the corner. Not luxurious, but good for 1 or 2 nights for cheap price and clean beds to explore the city.

    This is a very good hostel in central Tirana with adequate facilities such as hot showers and WiFi. Moreover, there is a living room with comfortable seats, a terrace and a well equipped kitchen. The spacious dormitory offers comfortable beds, curtains to ensure some privacy and lockers. The hostel is in a quite area and guests kept noise to a minimum. Friendly service minded Albanian staff. E.g. they offered me a safe option to store luggage. They even had change in €.

    It really is the best hostel in Tirana (I tried others before writing this review). Staff are awesome, Melissa is a fab person, Kristina is simply wonderful, a fun and lovely family vibe. Really the best breakfast I've had, such a spread! Beds are super comfy, I had great sleep. Rooms and common areas heated which is really nice in winter. Nice hot showers. Great location, surrounded by supermarket and fruit-veg shops. Close to bus stop.

    Everything was nice. Good money for value. Nice people working in the place. It is not luxurious but nice and clean. I arrived for a flight delay and I was happy to know that there was somedy waiting for me at 2 A.M. My friends also suffered a car breakdown, so I was eager to get to the hostel. I really recommend it. It is the cheapest option for tight budgets if you are looking to get a cosy and clean place!I was there the 25 of July 2022. I will definitely come back
