I booked a room with a balcony that I was always use which is in the main building however reception has sent me to some apartment which is not what I wanted. I had no access to Wi-Fi, Didn’t have breakfast and when I asked I was told is closed. When I asked to grab a coffee I was also refused and told that the coffee machine is now off. Been coming at this hotel for way too many times but this time my experience was not great. I am a repeat customer and not a lot of care is given which is a shame. Not sure I want to come back at this please… maybe I will give it one more chance..

Booked balcony room but eneded up in basement

When we arrived. We had booked a superior room with balcony. But the owner of the hotel hadn't notified us that they had leaking water in their hotel so the room wasn't available. He put us in the basement instead, in a smaller room. The room was moisty and loud noise from the waterpump. He gave us 5€ discount and said we would get another price charge from hotels.com but hotels.com did not change the rate for us even after we made a complain to them and they contacted the hotel. The owner of the hotel also gave us a beer after we complain that it's not ok to just change our booking without noticing us. The breakfast was great and the interior design very beautiful.

Anstey Nomad in Tirana

My first trip to Tirana so didn’t know what to expect but wasn’t disappointed. Friendly people, inexpensive and felt safe, beautiful city lots of things to see and do, cycle friendly, nice restaurants etc I will definitely come back for a longer stay and combine the trip with a beach stay as the beaches are rumoured to be clean and very nice 😊
