I felt like I was at home. The common spaces are great for hanging out. Breakfast is nice and filling. The kitchen is spacious and fully equipped. The owner is very nice and helpful. I had a 2:45am flight leaving Durres and he helped me arrange a taxi to get to the airport making sure I arrived well.

The hostel has a very central position, it is in a lovely place. The bar is also very nice. The staff are a refreshment in a town where very few speak English.

1. Staff: Incredible staff. They are kind, helpful, and so much fun! We celebrated my birthday and shared lots of time together! The volunteers here are great fun! 2. Location: Near everything! 3. Building: The roof terrace is great and one of my favourite places in this hostel. I ate all my breakfast there! The hostel is connected to a cute bar / cafe, which is nice! To get into the hostel, you need to pass a locked gate. This gives a feeling of security. 4. Rooms: Quiet rooms. :) I liked the quotes on the walls, names of the rooms, and decor of the hostel and garden. 5. Wifi works! 6. Good vibes.

Location, price and staff are excellent. Durres is a popular tourist destination and you don't feel like you are in the center of town. It's a small oasis of its own.

Staff was lovely! I panicked when I lost my wallet but they helped me look and we found it. They told me what there was to do and they were like a little family of volunteers who all spoke fluent English---something to be appreciated in Albania.. I don't know how long they will be there though!

An Inside Look at Hostel Durres

The building is located on the main square, and is a vila built in the 1930s. It has functioned as a house, a showroom for Ford cars and as offices for the municipality and even for Mormons community. After we have renovated this abandoned building in 2014 it now functions as a great and vibrant place for travelers to meet each other and relax in the city of Durres. The rooms are different in size, and with their high ceilings give a spacious effect. Downstairs we have a large common area with an open kitchen where we cook for ourselves and our guests, who ever wants to join for dinner.

We don't like bunk beds in general, but this is not a real downer when it is expected :).
You can get fairly easily to the nearest bus and with a 10 minute drive you reach the closest beach. Also its very close to the big boulevard. The people are very nice and its a very quiet and relaxed environment near the busy city center!

Big, comfortable beds. A bit too close to each other maybe, but in the end it was very comfortable.

the double room is not really a well decorated one, and I don’t like the smell of bathroom.
The location is not far away from the bus terminal, and so close to many scenic spots, staffs are friendly.

I've seen much better hostels for the same price :( While it is okay, a bit of renovation wouldn't hurt (rooms and toilet).
The terrace/garden is great! Free of charge clean towels are also great option.

it's probably one of the best hostel I've ever visited- the location couldn't be better - it's just in the main square, the beds are comfortable, it's very very clean, the common area - inside and outside is great to chill, the breakfast is tasty (toasts, jam, eggs, vegetables), wifi is quick, you can do the laundry, leave your luggage after the check out and the staff is very helpful and talkative ;) totally recommend it :)
