Hostel Durres

Great place with very central location, Though I rarely stay in Hostels, I booked this one on a short notice and based on reviews that ended up better then I anticipated, and that's a very good thing. Room with 4 beds is of a decent space, has a comfy bed and there are sufficient shower cabins & toilets in first and second floor, which makes this hostel look like you are staying at a private room. The local couple ( menagment) are very communicative, friendly, and welcoming, just like other staff that happen to be volunteers, and this makes Hostel Durres a good and warm place to stay indeed. Wifi is strong and there is large sofas indoors and huge garden outside where you can hang out with others, or work on your notebook, pending you nature of your stay. All in all, this place really has a good vibes all around, and most probably will return again, or whenever I'm in Durres again.

Initially I thought the door will be open till midnight, but reception works only till 21:00,. but the door stays open till 23:00. So the only thing that can be improved, according to my opinion, is a check-in upgrade model by perhaps installing a pin code at the front gate, which doesn't cost a lot and avoids all the late arrivals potential issues.

The location and stuff was amazing, especially the chef lady!

I didn’t find the toilets and bathrooms that clean

Location, breakfast, staff, patio areas

No wifi in my room. Sharing co ed bathrooms with no privacy, and no shower doors just shower curtains. No shower wands only overhead stream. no daily housekeeping.

It was cheap and in the centre. Breakfast was included

The beds were a bit too small. And I'm not super huge, 1.82m. However the worst was the club which is right behind the wall. The music was so loud that you couldn't even concentrate. I understand that it's not up to the hostel, but some information about that should be available somewhere
