Hostel

😠 Friendly staff but, When we entered the room a disgusting odor of dead cats and smelly old women slapped us in the face. The horrible smell was acompanied by a temperature of -27, a really fun experience. We were sleeping clothed and in our jackets. Pillows and beds were diry, the AC wasn't working.... People often mention hostel, good, night, location, kitchen, people, dirty, owner, nice, cheap,

    Friendly staff but, When we entered the room a disgusting odor of dead cats and smelly old women slapped us in the face. The horrible smell was acompanied by a temperature of -27, a really fun experience. We were sleeping clothed and in our jackets. Pillows and beds were diry, the AC wasn't working. It was warmer outside than in our freezing cave of a room. Also no warm water in the toilet, a true caveman experience.

    Avoid this hostel at all cause especially for female travellers. During winter they don't have heater or ac to warm the room. The kitchen and bathroom are so dirty. It's really very run down.

    Basic but adequate and I would stay here again. I know it can happen anywhere but during my 5 night stay my food in the fridge was stolen twice. Relaxed atmosphere, adorable cats, useful kitchen, good sized dorm room and the cleaning lady really works hard. Excellent location close to the main square.

    I don’t think you can class this as a hostel, it’s more of a guest house. There was only four people staying in the whole place when I stayed, unless they were borrowers and lived under the floor boards. The owner was a nice guy, rubbish jokes, but a nice guy. Perfect for an overnight stay as it’s right next to the train and bus stations. A little expensive for what it is.

    I lived here for a couple of days, It’s totally ok for the environment cause it’s really cheap, it’s just $7. However, at the night of 02/09/2021. When I was back to the hostel, I met a little puppy just outside the hostel, I thought he/ she really wanted to play with people, so he/she kept going round me and wiggling his/her tail, and even wanted to follow me enter the hostel. I knew the young receptionist just want to close the gate, so he first intimidated the little puppy pretending to kick. I thought it was ok cause it was a pretending. But when I went to my dormitory upstairs,through the window I saw the receptionist was still at the gate, but at the same time, I heard the screaming of the puppy. So, I thought this time, the kicking was real, although I knew maybe the receptionist was not on purpose. It was really horrible, so at that night even almost 11pm or 12pm, I knew I must sleep in another hostel.

    I read some bad reviews about this Hostel and I feel it's unfair to the hostel. For €7 a night you got access to a kitchen, it's quiet, good location. When I came the owner provided me with a towel and helped me wash some dirt clothes after a long journey. I have been traveling nonstop in hotels, hostels, guesthouses etc. for the last 10 years - so the people that complain doesn't know what they're talking about.

    (Translated by Google) The best! Walking distance from international bus terminal. Kitchen available! Domi is quiet at night with many people. 22:00? It ’s a quiet rule after 23:00. Easy to spend slowly. There are many grocery stores and cafes nearby. Laundry service € 3 / time (Original) 最高! 国際線バスターミナルから徒歩圏内。 キッチン利用可能! ドミは静かな人が多く夜は静か。 22時?23時以降は静かにするルールなので ゆっくり過ごしやすい。 近くに食料品店、カフェがたくさん。 ランドリーサービスは€3/回

    I highly recomend this hostel. It is very clean, close to the bus station and the garden is very chill. But most importantantly the owner is always available to help you and also to share a drink :)

    This week I had to book an unexpected trip to Tirana and, due to it being so short notice, accommodation options were limited. I came across Vertigo Hostel which offered both a great price AND a very central location. Score! I wasn't sure what to expect as I had never been to Tirana before. Plus my flight arrived late at night (like, 4am late!) Luckily, communication with the hostel prior to my arrival was short and smooth. I got the bus from the airport which cost 300 LEK (bus runs hourly from 7am to 10pm) and stopped just a short walk from the hostel. They allowed me to check in that early which was fantastic. Overall my experience was very positive. Both men who communicated with me at reception were very courteous and helpful. The location of the hostel is the biggest plus as you can walk pretty much anywhere from there. The bathrooms and showers could do with some maintenance but it's ok for a short stay. And, to finalize, being greeted by a rabbit hopping around the front of the hostel is a memory I certainly won't forget!

    This is the worst hostel I ever stayed!!! I am traveling for 2 months and this is so far the worst accomodation I have stayed! They have the courage to kick people out of the kitchen because they have a friend cooking for them here today . Can u believe it?? The hostel is dirty , toilets are not cleaned properly,much less the kitchen. They act like they are doing you a favor . I have stayed in cheaper and better than this . JUST HAVE ONE SHOWER WITH HOT WATER ! AND it's not really private ,it's a improved shower with transparent doors

    Good thing is cheap. That’s it. It was cold and the blanket is thin. Quite dirty kitchen and useless kitchen tools. If you want to use the washing machine, you need to pay 8euros. It’s more pricy than staying one day in this hostel lol. I paid 5 euros per a day. But now, it’s now 5euros. But It’s still cheap.

    June 2023 Price 7€+ Central I went quite late, short stay but they were very kind and helpful, welcomed with a smile. There is much to be done and they are working on it. It is good value for the night. I enjoyed the garden and the shower. Thank you for the service, good luck with your projects.

    At the first we checked Booking, the comments was 6 but this place deserves more than 9. Garden and owner of hostel was amazing! Also this place can be used as camping area!

    Kitchen Partly functional, No toilet paper/toiletteries, toiletts are Not getting cleaned every day- are verry dirty and moldy, there is mold in the dorms too, No breakfast is served and laundry costs 8€. No ac or heating, No Moskito nets for the Windows. But ist located in a Central, yet calm spot within tirana. Free wifi and with 8€ per night extreme cheap.

    (Translated by Google) I was 2 nights. The 2 was impossible to sleep well. The first talks until the wee hours of the morning. The second talks and loud laughter until we get up with another guest to protest. The owners participated in the meeting. Bathroom with dirty floor several times. In two days I missed toilet paper in the bathroom four times I went. There are hostels in Tirana for the same cost. I recommend not going to this unless you like the night and do not mind the visits of the city during the day. (Original) Estuve 2 noches. Las 2 fue imposible dormir bien. La primera conversaciones hasta altas horas de la madrugada. La segunda conversaciones y risas fuertes hasta que nos levantamos con otro huesped para protestar. De la reunion participaban los dueños. Baño con el piso sucio en varias oportunidades. En dos dias faltó papel higienico en el baño en cuatro ocasiones que fuí. Hay hostales en Tirana por el mismo costo. Recomiendo no ir a este salvo que te guste la noche y no te importe las visitas de la ciudad durante el dia.
