"Friendly and helpful staff. Room is spacious and clean. Good air conditioning and close to shops and pick up points for tours. Needs to improve internet access as the connectivity is poor. Improved breakfast more variety of foods and more selection of coffees and hot drinks. Breakfasts time can a little bit early so that not rush when your activities for the day. Overall the hotel is great and good ambiance to stay in Albania. I give the hotel 4 star ratings."
