The owners are so kind; they even took me to the doctor when I fell in the bazaar. They are also great cooks, and I was lucky enough to be included in a family barbecue. If you want to experience true Albanian hospitality, choose this guesthouse. The room is also very quiet, and there is a lovely garden too.

Bujtina Hadër Xhebro in Tepelenë provides accommodation with a garden and a bar. When you reach this guesthouse... not only do you find a house, but you feel like a real guest. A guest of the house, a guest of the family. Almost a member of the family. Try all the food. Try the "sarma", the cheese... the Trahana... everything is locally homemade. Fresh from the garden or the mountain around. Thanks, everyone! Ariola, Natasja, Urania, Uncle Jaho, and "Arbor". It was not just a stay... it was an experience with you all.

At the hostel, the rooms are equipped with a wardrobe and a patio with a city view. Loved staying here! They have the cutest rooms and the location is perfect. Bathrooms are also really nice and clean. Boss and staff (Caroline) are soo friendly and always trying to help. They also found a bed for me when I wanted to extend my stay, even though on booking it said they were fully booked. Since they just opened recently, they might add a common area, which would be a nice addition. Would always come back.
