There were cozy sitting areas both inside and outside, perfect for socializing. Lockers were provided for secure luggage storage. The hosts were locals who offered valuable insights and advice, helping us plan our trip - they even gave me great tips on visiting the Blue Eye and heading to Sarandë.

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.

The streets are beautiful. Bed was comfortable, and the bathroom facilities were very modern and clean. Probably best shower I’ve had in my 4 months travelling Europe and the Balkins. The owners/family are all lovely and accomodating. If you’re a solo traveller looking for a really social atmosphere then this may not be for you however it was perfect for me as I was looking for a relaxing place close to everything.
