To be honest Shpella guesthouse is a perfect place to spend few days with you family. I enjoyed very much sitting in the garden with my children and eating breakfast and lunch every day, I spent one week there, but I would have really loved to stay longer, my children didn't want to leave. The owner is so helpful and makes you feel like you are at home. I will definitely go back to this place, thank you Gjon

Perfect location, nice old guesthouse where we felt very welcome. Rooms are small but clean, and with the landscape you won't want to stay in your room anyways! We had our dinner there and everything was very good.

We went to bed early but some other guests arrived very late, which caused some minimal noise.

The staff were very professional and helped us with everything we needed. The room was comfortable. The property had superb views and the food was some of the best we had in Albania! Overall an excellent experience - highly recommended.

If you pay in leke, make sure to check the exchange rates just to be sure.

Shpella Guesthouse was the perfect stay in Theth. Pretty close to the minimarket (20 min walk) but outside the very touristy parts of Theth. The views are amazing and the garden is perfect to enjoy those views with a big beer after the Valbone-Theth hike. Great staff, very welcoming (the shot of Raki!) and overall a great place to enjoy the beauty of Theth. Also about a 45 min hike to the Waterfall!

Bathroom very small, but to be expected in guest houses. It is not very sound proof with floors and walls hearing all

Great vibe and lovely outdoor spaces with views of all the mountains. At night, they have a bonfire, which adds to community feeling. The staff were kind and extremely welcoming after the big hike. The restaurant does a great meal and breakfast was good

I booked a double bed room but was put in a three bed room, though had to myself. Was too unwell to talk them about it.

I became very ill from a stomach bug, the wonderful female staff checked on me and ensured I was OK. Made me feel very taken care of when travelling alone. Nice view of surroundings and great vibe

The only downside I would mention it's that the bathroom is a little small and there's no separation between the shower and toilet so it gets a bit messy.

The house is very cute and beautiful. The staff is TOP-NOTCH, so nice and helpful all the time. They're truly one of the things that makes this place so special. The location is great as it's the start of many trails and the way there is okay, it's mostly paved. They have a big parking for cars and vans. The food was amazing and the rooms were really comfy.

I booked a bed in a mixed dorm and was quite skeptical given some of the negative reviews left by other guests, but was pleasantly surprised by how comfortable the bed was. The bathroom was small but it was totally fine. There was hot water and basic toiletries were provided. Breakfast was good as well. The guesthouse is located near the church, next to a beautiful meadow.

Most amazing place in Theth, please come here I could not recommend it more! Out of everywhere we have travelled in the past few months this has been the most amazing place to stay?

Toilet and shower (from dorms) in the same room.

The location is great (old center, without all the new buildings). The staff was very nice. Also the breakfast buffet is good. The building is super pretty.

It’s a gorgeous home with a backdrop of beautiful Theth mountains. All the staff are friendly- breakfast prepared with lots of the ingredients grown in Theth. The room is ‘basic’ but for hiking it has everything you need. Would stay here next time 100%

Bathroom wasn't great.

A good place to stay. The room was decent, safe for the winter bed sheets and no a/c or fan. The bathroom wasn't great. But they compensate with the peaceful and beautiful landscape and amazing food at the restaurant.

Because you will love it here! The last house in the village, surrounded by mountains and gorgeous nature. The owners John and his wife really makes everyone feel so welcomed and they really walk the extra mile to help you make your stay the best. I had forgot a sweater and was a bit cold in the evening, and got to borrow a knitted sweater during my 2 nights there. Wish I would have booked 3 nights! Delicious food (some of the best I ate in Albania) kind staff who speaks English, comfy beds and a really good breakfast! A cozy bonfire in the evening where you can enjoy some good draft beer. Gorgeous hikes, cold water to swim in and drink, fresh air and cool guests. What more can one ask for really? Already looking forward to my next visit!

Unfortunately it was too hot to stay inside the room for a long time. The temperature was better during the night when we went to sleep and we left the windows open. There was no window in the bathroom.

We really enjoyed our meals and taking a rest in the idyllic courtyard, surrounded by the mountains, the fresh air, the cool water and just a little bit of romantic music in the background. The room we stayed in was small, with a basic bathroom and a comfy bed. You get clean towels and sheets, but you have to leave your shoes out of the door to enter the common areas (which is part of the loca traditions). The staff was great, helpful and they all speak great English.

Windows are posirioned the way you don’t have much privacy however you can use curtains 😊

Placing is cool, super friendly staff (and owner I guess). Very good meal, all homemade. Signs are from the main street so it’s easy to find

Gorgeous little family run guesthouse right at the start of the trail for the blue eye and waterfall hikes in Theth. Loads of areas to sit outside in the shade and relax. Food was good and lovely atmosphere. Packed lunch available too. We were unfortunate and got food poisoning from another restaurant but the kitchen cooks at shpella were super accommodating and made us some plain food!!

The bathroom was really small. Shower over toilet. At the end we couldn’t pay with card. There is no ATM nearby (next 1.5 Hours) we were lucky that other guests could lend us money. They don accept paypal or bank transfers

The location was perfect, really nice place to start hiking routes. The staff was friendly. Beautiful nature!

Beautiful views, super Welcoming hosts. Friendly staff If I could give a twenty out of ten I would. One of the most loveliest experiences ever. Even if you don't stay here, the restaurant is awesome on its own. Faleminderit.
