Good location if a little difficult to find initially.
Room was perfect for what we needed during our stay, especially having a washing machine!
Great communication and very helpful- it was especially nice having breakfast brought to the room each morning!

A really nice apartment in the heart of Sarande, just far enough from the promenade to be quiet but a quick 10 min walk. Communication, once direct with the host, was very good, and timely.

They cancel at the last moment and we don’t have still refund. It is a lack of respect on their part that they have left us without an apartment, we had to pay twice as much for the room due to their irresponsibility of having the page active even though the bathroom was "broken". my only bad experience in saranda
