It was very special to stay with Samuela and the family in the apartment upstairs. It was precious to join their local daily life with kindness and hospitality! I would recommend this unique cultural experience to the fellow travellers.

“A home from home”
We just spent 2 nights here. Very comfortable and clean. We had a super nights sleep after a long day out. All the amenities are hereincluding a washing machine. It's very close to Berat. Either a 2 minutes drive or 10 minutes walk. The best part though is the wonderful family. Really friendly and go out of their way to help. Great homemade breakfast. We had dinner there which was authentic home cooked food The whole family was lovely but a special mention for Samuela. A lovely young host who translated for her parents and was so friendly and a real pleasure to chat to. She was the star! 😊 Looking forward to coming back.❤️

Super nice hosts. The daughter was the translator, speaking an excellent English for her age. They even drove us to the castle at the top of the mountain for free. Very calm and quiet area and a nice breakfast. Thanks for the nice stay.

The upstairs apartment in the family house with parking on the gated property. We stayed for two nights and it was perfect way to visit Berat. It's short walk to the centre of the city. We also dinned in the house, if you get that offered i suggest you go with home cooked food!

We had a very warm welcome at this place with a cup of tea and coffee, then the family drove us to a local spot in the river to go swimming. They were very open and hospitality was very important. After our night we got a fresh breakfrast with homemade products and fresh products straight out of their garden. It felt like we were part of the family during our stay, the accommodation was unique and beautiful. Definitely recommend this local warm experience.
