Bashtovë Fortress

The front staff was absolutely wonderful and helpful, however the property itself was very disappointing. Air conditioning didn’t work (blew air but not chilled), bathroom was filled with sugar ants, towels and bedding felt stiff and crispy, beds and pillows very uncomfortable. Parking was convenient and it was well located for an eat walk into the town but overall do not recommend, even for the budget price

The owner and staff were super helpful. AMA inv restaurant. Great view. Spacious and very quiet room. 2 Albanian boys who grew up in Italy opened this hotel a year ago. Very hopeful and high potential but seems like still trying to figure out. So customer must be patient. No phone in the room. Some inconvenience No facial tissues. guests must message the owner on WhatsApp for any requests. The toilet seat cover didn’t stay up. Shower drain was slow but the owner fixed it immediately. The major problem is the location. On Expedia, hotel is located in town and described only 2 min from town center but it’s actually located at the top of the hill which takes nearly 40 min climbing on the foot or 15 min by taxi which is about $20. So you need a car or money for the taxi to stay here. Plus. No restaurants or stores near by. I complained to Expedia for the incorrect information which incurred major unexpected expenses on the transportation. Also. The whole town loses the electricity daily often. When it happens, no water either. The country is just started developing. So I would recommend to wait 10 years before visiting.

Great room. The breakfast was good and all the staff was excellent. Lori Beach was only a few minutes walk away. The room was very nice . I would highly recommend this hotel. It's about a 10 minute walk from lots of restaurants.
