Amazing place! Staff was so great and helpful with booking buses to Theth and planning your stay in Theth. Rooms were very nice and clean, common area and the outside area before the hostel great to meet people and talk/chill. Best thing about the hostel is the vibe. They put so much effort into people feeling welcome, being able to connect (lots of activities etc.) and being able to explore the city (recommendations, bike rentals). Would always come back! Special shoutout to the staff (Xhulio and Enes), they always try to improve the hostel as well as your stay!

I have been to Shkodër many times, but I really like this accommodation, it offers much more for a decent price. It is close to the main pedestrian street, has parking secured by cameras, and a large yard. The owner is a wonderful guy who is ready to help in everything. His family is also very kind. There was also a nice evening gathering with the other guests. I stayed 4 nights.

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is 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 bit more.

    The shared area was really nice, set in a shaded garden with locked entry. The staff were really kind and helpful, and explained really well about your options hiking in the mountains nearby. The room was lovely, with curtains around the beds and the bathrooms were great and clean. There's a storage room for people travelling into valbone/theth, which is unsecured but you can put valuables into a safe. Real top tier hostel.
