    I had a fantastic stay at this hostel! The owner was amazing and took care of me, serving dinner and providing a warm and welcoming environment. The next day, she prepared an incredible breakfast. The hostel is located in a peaceful neighborhood, with a beautiful garden filled with fruit trees and a view of the mountains. The staff and other guests were lovely and recommended the best local places to eat. The complementary breakfast was fresh and delicious, and the homemade bread was a highlight. The hostel was clean and tidy, and I felt right at home.

    Nothing to complain about at all.

    We had a wonderful time exploring the surrounding area, going on hikes and even trying our hand at fishing. The hotel also provided free bikes, which made it even more convenient for us to go cycling around. there was evening entertainment that kept us entertained and added a fun atmosphere to our stay.

    My wife says that it would have been great if there were more activities specifically tailored for families with children.

    amazing stay at an idyllic hostel surrounded by greenery. Incredible host Fatima made us feel like family, providing delicious homemade breakfast and even lending us bikes to explore. Exceeded expectations from my previous visit to Elbasan. Such a gem!

    My stay at the hostel was exactly what I needed - peaceful and quiet. I ended up extending my stay because it was so good. Fatima, the host, made me feel right at home and her hospitality was top-notch. I loved seeing the chickens running around in the gardens. The hostel is located in a residential neighborhood with friendly locals, and there are plenty of bar/cafés and supermarkets nearby. The breakfast was delicious, especially the homemade items. The internet was high-speed and reliable, perfect for my online teaching. The large garden was a beautiful place to relax, with cats and chickens adding to the charm. The hostel is great for short and long stays, and there's even a small private room with a double bed.

    I can recommend this hostel.

    The room at Elbasan Backpacker Hostel was amazing! It had everything I needed, like a fully equipped kitchen with a fridge, dishwasher, and toaster. I felt right at home, being able to cook my own meals and enjoy them in the comfort of my room. The private entrance and washing machine were great additions too. this room was perfect for someone like me who enjoys a cozy and convenient stay.

    The only thing I didn't particularly like was the bidet in the room. It's just not something I'm used to and didn't find much use for it.

    The owners were super cool and made us feel welcome. The breakfast they served us was delicious and homemade. They even let us borrow their bikes to explore the area, which was awesome. The best part was that they had evening entertainment, so we had a great time hanging out and having fun. it was an epic stay!

    The only thing we wished for was a better party scene for young people like us. We had a great time at the hostel, but it would have been even more fun if there were more activities for young party-goers.

    The hostess was incredibly hospitable and made us feel right at home. The property was surrounded by a beautiful garden with chickens, goats, and cats. The clean room and comfortable bed made for a pleasant stay. Even without air conditioning, the cool breeze from the trees kept us comfortable. The homemade breakfast, made with fresh ingredients from the garden, was a highlight. It was truly a hidden gem and worth the price.

    The location is a bit far from the city center, about 2.4km away. However, the nearby food shops made up for it.

    Our stay at the hostel was fantastic! Great value for money with comfortable and spacious rooms. The location, a bit away from the center, allowed us to experience the local village life while still being easily accessible. The staff, especially Fatima, went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable stay. The breakfast, with fresh produce from the hostel's garden, was delicious.

    I absolutely loved the charming decoration of Elbasan Backpacker Hostel. The general areas, like the garden and the lounge, were beautifully adorned with local artwork and cozy furniture. As a senior woman, I felt very comfortable and welcomed in this warm and inviting environment. The hostel's accessibility was also excellent for us elderly guests, with easy access to the rooms and facilities without any stairs or steep paths.

    I would have liked to see some additional services or activities specifically catered to senior people. Perhaps some organized day trips or excursions that are more suitable for our age group.

    As low-budget travelers, we loved the affordable rates and the friendly and helpful staff. The homemade breakfast in the lovely garden was a highlight. The location in a quiet neighborhood with nearby amenities was convenient for us.

    It felt like being at home, no complaints!
