Hostels in Tirane, Albania

The room was okay and everything but they wouldnt let us use the AC. I turned it on at night cuz my kids sleep better when its cooler, and they came up the stairs and shut the power off to our room. We needed our phones charged for the next day as we had big plans the next morning and we woke up to them dead. Also, on top of no power and AC or wifi, they yelled at us for leaving 2 shopping bags of garbage. Saying she just rents the rooms, shes not a maid. I was unaware that there was public dumpsters on the streets- I thought they were business owned like in the states where if you put trash in it you get fined. She also got mad that I stripped the beds before we left and I think was saying she had someone coming in an hour and now she will have to make them wait. So the whole experience was of that of staying at someones house when they dont want you there. Also I paid a $10 deposit and they didnt return it.

Everything was fantastic. I was so nervous being my first time in a hostel but all went well. Everyone was very welcoming and we had loads of activities together. Greta and Melissa were awesome hosts. The breakfast was cheap (€2) and nice. There is a lot of positive energy. The only trouble is having to wait for your turn to use the shower. Not enough bathrooms.
