Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
This hotel was very disappointing. If it had been marketed as a hostel I would have had better expectations, but for the price I expected much more. The room was so basic it didn’t even have a bin, it was tiny and the bathroom door didn’t close properly. The toilets cistern leaked, the drains hadn’t been cleaned in a very long time, it was quite noisy (you could hear conversations between other residents), the breakfast was meagre, and while there was free laundry service which was actually a big perk, no items were folded so they couldn’t actually be worn without getting them ironed. The man on reception was very helpful but he wasn’t always around and it wasn’t too easy to understand where to check in. It’s also frustrating that there is a 3 night minimum here - we ended up leaving a night early as we hadn’t wanted to stay that long anyway and we found a nicer (and cheaper!) place to stay in another part of Albania.
The positives about this property are that it is extremely close to the beach, comes with parking (although we noticed a few times that the car was blocked in as the car park was over full) and Himare in general is lovely.
Overall, if you have low expectations and just need a place to stay this will suit you - but it is still overpriced.
